This location was wonderful for our time in Dublin. We were within close walking distance to Guiness Storehouse and a grocery store. The Temple Bar section was not too far of a walk either and we managed that multiple times on our trip. I read other reviews regarding Anna having a cat, and I made her aware of two of us having pretty severe cat allergies and she had the cat removed from the apartment for a week before we arrived and we didn't have any issues with our allergies.
