Great location and nice to have a kitchen to have breakfast in. Kitchen was a bit awkard, furniture wise. Was nice to have USB ports for charging. Black out blinds were a plus in bedroom. Third floor was a bit of a trick getting up to with luggage. Overall, not bad for a few nights in Dublin. Nice and close to lots of visitor sights, which we walked to.
