The location of this 2 bedroom apartment is perfect. The two bedrooms have a bathroom close by and the stairs upstairs lead you to a cot for sleeping or you can sit outside. We cooked some meals here and ate out generally for lunch. There’s a freezer and fridge along with a dishwasher. The biggest plus was the washer and dryer. You won’t feel cramped and it’s good for two couples.
You are within walking distance to everything. The actual Temple Bar is on the same side as the apartment and across the street is Fitzsimmons. If you want a true local hangout go to Tom Kennedy’s Bar (about a ten minute walk) where you will get the cheapest draft around. The Tomahawk is on same street and less than a block away and is a great steakhouse. The Ivy was a first experience so book prior to arriving or you won’t get a reservation (10 minute walk). If you rent a car there is Park Rite located on Fleet Street. Not expensive to park and you can do a long term stay. Book an overnight trip to Belfast to see the North. We used the Paddywagon. They also have longer tours but if you have more than two people cheaper to rent car and drive there. Hertz is close by but boom through AAA for a better rate and when you get your car order the daily WiFi because you can carry it in your pocket and have WiFi for your entire trip even while walking.
Get the app called Free Now and you can order a cab to pick you up at airport, transport you around town, or drop you off at airport and it’s simple because the fare gets charged on a card.
