Pros: Micheal was super accommodating and let us check in early. This was a huge help and very grateful for it! He gave us some good tips about the city as well! The place was nice and clean, and came with snacks which was a super welcoming touch. The location was very central which made it super easy to get around.
Cons: The bed was very uncomfortable, you could pretty much feel the springs through the mattress. The apartment was not quite as mentioned in the description and many reviews. Although it is slightly outside of the main craziness of the Temple Bar area, it is still too close to be quite. Loud noise, people talking/partying/and fighting could be heard through the bedroom window every night until about 2am.
Location: If you are coming to party and looking for a clean, affordable place and plan to be up late each night, than this place will be perfect!
But if you are in Dublin for sightseeing and have some early mornings planned and looking for a more authentic experience. Than I would avoid staying this close to the Temple Bar area.
