Great location if you need/want to be near Drumcondra Train Station or Croke Park Stadium. Apartment is a gentle mile or so from the historic Dublin City Center so if your visit plans include Ha'Penny Bridge, Temple Bar, Trinity, St. Stephens, or other historic sites, plan on figuring out public transit or getting your daily 10,000 Fitbit steps in! ;D . There's a nice path along the nearby canal and some restaurants near the train station. Grocery stores and pub are conveniently located nearby. Internet works well.
