Great location. We were able to walk to the city and close to the Hop on hop off bus stop 2 so that having purchased a 2 day pass we were able to use the bus as a means of transport around Dublin to the tourist spots. The apartment had everything we needed to be able to cook for ourselves for a few days, plus basic herbs, sauces etc. It was also great to be able to park our car in a safe, secure space. Not too keen on the area the apartment is located in as far as feeling comfortable walking around at night, but we have never lived in a city and the closeness to city well and truly compensated.
