GREAT location to explore temple bar and downtown Dublin.
Not so great if you have a car, as you have to park in a paid lot a ways away. There was also a lot of stairs since we stayed on the top floor. We didn't mind this at all and the view was great from the top floor.
My only qualm was the noise. SUPER DUPER loud being right on a main road. You can hear cars all night long.
Host should definitely put a noise maker or a fan in the room. Otherwise it was a great place to stay.
