The apartment is in a great location. Very easy access to Temple Bar area. Getting there is very complex, although Pat provides good detailed instructions. Just be prepared for a bit of a walk from the bus stop and many doors to get in. it feels secure but the alley activity view below is interesting to say the least. The apartment smelled like cigar smoke so much we had to leave the windows open. Noisy as expected, just put on white noise on Alexa which was conveniently there. Washer was out of commission but laundry (expensive) in the complex was easy to get to as a back up. All and all the stay was fine considering how close you are to everything.
