All five stars.
The apartment is actually nothing related to THE WELLINGTON bar. They are not on the same building, not even in the same terrace. It's facing away from the street so it's quiet, you can sleep soundly. I didn't even meet no noisy alcohol addicts in the neighborhood. In fact, during the half month stay in Dublin, the Irish in pubs I met were only drinking moderately, sober in mind at least.
Secondly, it's 10 min adult pace walking distance from Green LUAS (Dublin tram), and maybe 20 min walk can link us to the DART that carried us to the south Dublin county, 5 min walk to the NO. 18 bus route that carried us to the city west, etc.
Thirdly, me myself as a grown man can feed on merely bread and butter. My wife is a little picky about food. She is a rice feeding Asian woman, Kanum Thai rice noodle and fried rice were her choices. Those who loves spicy food can go to the pungent Boojum Mexican cuisine. Muslims can go to the Keshk Cafe. You can also find traditional fish and chips in Beshoff Bros down the street of this apartment. Or buy a pizza, meat pie etc from the closest Tesco Metro, as Lasse provides an oven you can reheat with it.
Lasse and Mattias are both easy to communicate. During week days, Mattias goes to work around 8am and comes back around 6pm, otherwise he's kinda quiet, so I guess it's nice to try to be quiet vice versa.
