My husband and I enjoyed our stay in Dublin, and for the most part this flat was a good home base. The Stoneybatter neighborhood is being revitalized and there are many bars, shops, and restaurants within walking distance. It was great discovering things off the tourist path. When we chose to see the sights of Dublin it was a quick walk to transportation.
The room itself was small but we were only there to sleep and everything functioned well! The main concern you should have, particularly during summer months, is the noise level at night. Even while using ear plugs the sound still made it hard to sleep. I would recommend this place for heavy sleepers (or night owls).
