We travelled as 2 families of 3 each with a 4yo boy. This apartment was a bit loud our first night as it was the Gaelic football championship and Dublin won the cup so people were out all night celebrating (the dads went down to join the fun). We didn't mind as the kids' room was on the top floor and we had brought a sound machine with us. They slept right through all of it. The other nights were just normal city sounds. The location was wonderful for us, walking distance to everything (if you like to walk) and the adults could all hang out at the bar after the kids went to sleep using a phone app nanny cam between 2 phones to keep an eye on the kids (the apartment and Tavern both had wifi). The Dame Tavern is one of the best we visited while in Dublin! The apartment had a great balcony so we could watch the celebrations from the comfort of our apartment as well. Would definitely stay here again if/when we come back to Dublin!
