This apartment is as advertised, pretty much. It is bright and modern, roomy and comfortable. There is no view, as it faces on an inner courtyard, which is the receiving area for a big hotel next door. This leads to rather strange daytime noises, but it is quiet at night, so it's much better than facing the busy street on the other side. It is in an upscale, quality building with good security and elevator. I heard no noticeable noise from other apartments.
The location is very central, with easy access to transportation. You are within walking distance of many pubs and shops, without the noise of (say) staying right in Temple Bar. A Dublin Zero bike stand is within 100 meters. The 747 Airport bus stop is perhaps 200 meters away.
I gather this is a remodel in progress. As of July 2016 there was only a tiny old TV which I did not even turn on. Hopefully that will get replaced. The internet speed is pretty good, about 12Mb/s, enough to stream Netflix if you wish, which is nice.
All in all, a pleasant place as a base in Dublin, which I enjoyed and would choose again.
