Wonderful stay, great location! The apartment could use some minor cosmetic improvements but overall a great stay and all amenities you could need with a full kitchen! Easy to access especially with the new smart lock process, very flexible with early check in when possible. I would love to stay again in Dublin at this property but would request if possible a unit on the side that overlooks the busy bustling Temple Bar alleyway (Crown Ally rather than Cope Street). Overall a great stay!

We had no hot water for showers. Overall just not a very nice place- shower had exposed wood, floor planks were coming apart etc. Communication was good.

Great location but noisy at night

Lovely location! We had a good stay, but noticed a few issues around the apartment. The back of the bathroom door was covered in visible mold, and the bathroom rack was a bit rusty. The curtains in the main room came loose a few times and we had to hook them back up. Security was easy and we felt safe and comfortable in the building. We loved how close we were to Temple Bar and to transit!

Very disappointed!! Be careful as management company changes your apartment without notice.
Had booked and paid for a totally different apartment on the top floor of same building to accommodate for the size of our family. Had taken screenshot of the place - during booking for my records.
We were provided with a totally different unit that was way too small. Had 2 grown adult sons share a twin sleeper sofa.
Very difficult to communicate with property management - no texting within Expedia app or WhatsApp - only local phone calls. Different team members don’t communicate with each other.
Eventually able to move to another unit, BUT was 10min away with an additional cost of €100.
Overall, now recommending this place.

Lovely apartment to stay in and so close to everything you need you in Dublin. Recommend staying with friends to fill the rooms!

This property felt dirty. The photos are deceiving and don't show the filth in the apartment. The couch was stained so we placed a comforter on it to sit. The tub was stained, tile cracked and dirty. The balcony door was broken and didn't lock. We stayed in apartment 1 and it was not worth the cost.

We did appreciate the great location. What we did not like was the hide à bed poor mattress, especially for adults. The fire alarm that went on due to next door restaurant exhaust fan that got all the appartments fire alarm system to go on at 10PM.

The apartment is in need of repairs. The balcony door isn't hinged so when we tried to open it, it fell in us. It can be pushed open from the outside and with no way to secure the premises,I felt unsafe. My linen had terrible stains. It was extremely hard to walk up all those stairs with luggage and I did not know I needed to do this. You need to pick up keys at another address,which is challenging. The shower doesn't drain so you need to stop your shower to wait for it to drain, and the Dan doesn't work so the floor gets very slippery and you get one key so that's alot of fun to deal with when you have six in your group.Communication was terrible, several emails sent were never answered. I was expected to take out the trash and pay for garbage bags which is odd. Definitely not hotels com standards and wonder why it's on the site

Fantastic location. Everything you could want was a walkable distance. Room was spacious and clean. The bathroom was a bit run down but not as bad as others have said. We were very pleased with our stay.

I have booked in the past and the stay was amazing so we wanted to book again. The pictures they had listed were for the place we booked in the past. When I checked in they said they no longer operated the apartments overtop temple bar- then why do you still have the pictures up? And why is the location marker on the map as the rooms above the temple bar.
We wanted to make the best so we tried. The stairwell to the apartment is cluttered with personal possessions. When we got into the room, the floor was dirty and there was an old crusty fry on the floor. The counter had sugar on it form the last stay. The bathroom vent did not work so it got really moist and humid after and shower, and you can notice some mold growing on the door. It felt more like a college dorm then it did an apartment. The beds are stiff and I booked for a king bed and got a double..the only TV is put in an inconvenient location.
Also the button to flush the toilet was missing.. and toilet paper was shoved down as a button..
My disappointment came from the fact that the room I booked was the pictures of the old property they no longer service. That property was beautiful. I felt like I got “played” cause I was expecting the pictures and got a dirty apartment that was very claustrophobic. Save your money and book somewhere else..
I used to love city break apartments and staying above the temple bar.. I wouldn’t have been as upset if the apartment was dingy and dirty..

Location was the best! Everything within walking distance, check in office to apt about 15min walk. Can be loud at night but its normal for the area. Temple bar around the corner. Recomend fixing toilet button was broken. Love that they have a book of recommendation to do around area. If you want to go to local bar outside tourist area go to Memas @ Chinatown good prices and good food

We originally booked Temple Street Apartments but due to the previous guest having to stay and self isolate we were contacted to say we had been moved to Hatch Street Apartments instead. We were apartment number 8, it had 2 x bedrooms with its own toilet (one with a shower too) self contained kitchen sitting area and small outside court out of the front. The apartment was clean, however we think previous guests had been smoking inside before as it did have a musky smell in the air. It was fine for what we needed, we didn’t spend a lot of time there. We were worried about the location as it’s a good 20 min walk to Temple Bar, however we were so wrong. We were a 5 min walk to Camden Street, which was a fantastic area full of pubs and restaurants (Doolallys was the best Indian we have ever ate in) it was more chilled and less touristy than Temple Bar was, a real gem area of Dublin! The local Weatherspoons there was fab, brand new and cheaper drinks and breakfast! So overall we were very happy as the area was lovely!

Apartment was way smaller than pictures make it seem. It was an older apartment and wasnt very clean. Pictures are of a few apartments they have so you dont really know what apartment you will get till you get there. Address for the apartment on hotels.com was not the one we got. I was disappointed in this place. This place is in the templebar area and its easy to get around. If I could do it again, I would definitely pick another place.
2.5
Staying in the Temple Bar District appartment was like staying in the pub itself, as it's located just above the famous Temple Bar! Perfect for the ones looking to hit the pubs and be within walking distance to all the tourist sites, churches and the castle. Heaters in every room and all the necessities you may need.
On the down side the sofa bed was back breakingly uncomfortable and the noise from the pub at night and the street cleaners in the morning was very audible inside the appartment.

Staff and drivers really eager to help

I will start with the positives - we very much enjoyed the location, it does not get better than this spot. Very touristy, but we are tourists, so I don't mind. Yes, there is noise overnight but we are night owls so it didn't bother us. Pretty settled and quiet by 3AM. We loved the fact that we were able to walk out of door and be right in the middle of all the fun.
We stayed for a whole week, but we left the second and third day to travel to Northern Ireland. When we returned on the fourth day, we discovered one of the bed rooms was soaked from a leak in the ceiling. We contacted the management and they brought new bedding, By the next day the second bedroom was also leaking and the entire carpet was soaked. At this point both of the bedrooms were uninhabitable - the floors were soaked, the bedding was soaked and it was beginning to smell moldy. The last night of our stay they moved us to another apartment they operate (which was a block over and beautiful). While I appreciate them moving us the final day, it really put a "damper" on our trip to have three of us sleeping on two couches on the first floor for two nights.

Excellent location - although a bit of noise from construction next door. Very nice apartments, but problems with the heating in one of them. It was immediately fixed the next day, however.
Fairly expensive, but worth it!
5.0
Property was literally walking distance to just about everything we needed. Building construction across the street was a little distracting, but the workers started about the time we were getting up each morning. Could be an issue if someone was wanting to sleep past 7:30 am
1.3
The apartment is in an excellent location directly above Temple Bar, very central to everything with some shops and eateries just around the corner. Apartment was clean and comfortably slept four people however he sofa bed was fairly uncomfortable so we ended up using the divers as extra cushioning. Check in and out was simple and straightforward and we were given the option for a late check-out which was very useful. Overall we had a great stay and would definitely stay again for our next visit to Dublin!

The location and space of this flat was excellent. A bit hard to find, but it's right IN Temple Bar. We thought the noise would keep us up at night but because it's located in an alley it was strangely quite. There was construction during the day but we were gone most days.
VRBO did NOT communicate well with the main office about how to pick up keys, whether or not we had a queen bed or doubles, there were a lot of question marks over our heads about check in and detail and VRBO did not respond or pass on who and how to communicate with the main office. It was also difficult to find an accurate phone number or contact person to inquire about a key and to get a REAL address instead of VRBO's map directions.
If you are from the states and need to call the prefix in Ireland is +353. In order to get a "+" hold down the zero. These are good things to know.
Also, if you have any trouble walking or are not agile pass on this flat as the bathroom shower will be difficult to get into for an older person.
The automatic lights upon entry do NOT come on until you hit the 3rd step, this is challenging upon your first arrival AND lastly...they need more door stops as the doors are super heavy.
We walked 25 minutes north to get our keys with our luggage but the managers were kind enough to call a cab for our return. Just get the check in details sorted out before you come and you will have a wonderful stay in a comfortable place.

It is in a perfect part of the town and the staff is very nice. But beware that if you stay here you will wake up early every morning. The first morning and the last morning we were woken up at 6 to hundreds of empty kegs being dragged on the street to be taken away. We had to buy ear plugs to sleep. The location is great though. Just know what you’re in for.

Apartments are in a great part of the city for a weekend visit - we felt like we were right in the middle of everywhere we wanted to go.The apartment was clean and tidy and had everything we needed - only minor gripe was the size of the beds (we were 3 tall lads) - but we see that whenever we go away.Check-in and check-out was painless. Would def. recommend.

Very nice apartment, great location, great customer service.
5.0
The apartment was in a great location - easy walk to everything you would want to do in Dublin. Noise level at night was pretty high, as you are directly across from the Temple Bar.
***Just beware - check in was a pain because it is a little bit of a long walk from the office to the apartment.*** I didn't realize until after booking - nonrefundable - that check in was not at the building. Staff assured me it was a short, easy walk, but it wasn't. Check in building is hard to find & located on a sketchy side street. Don't go alone!

Perfect location to be in the middle of everything. the reviews I read were about being kept up late at night because of the loud bar, but that really wasn't an issue at all. The problem was the keg pick up and delivery in the VERY early hours. That was a bit tough as the clanging of metal for a couple of hours (it felt like) was extremely loud. However everything is within a 7 minute walk from the apartment, we were very happy with that.
5.0
This property was amazing. Highly recommend it! My boyfriend and I were staying in dublin for 4 days and we thought we would try this spot. It is super close to everything. All things touristy and if you walk 5 mins north there are sooo many bars and restaurants not near the tourist part. I will 100% stay here again.

The apartment was great! The location was perfect - directly above the Temple Bar. I would definitely recommend it!
4.0
The location was great but there is major construction right across the street. They started around 7:45 and went thru the day. We were out in the day so that wasn’t a big deal. Well stocked and good set up, could use some TLC in bathroom mostly. They did communicate the key pick up was not at the apartment so good to know prior.

good value for money in dublin - but very noisy and check in is a fair distance away

If you want the unique experience of staying above a busy pub in Ireland then this is the place. Great experience, but definitely not a quiet place. Ear plugs a must!
1.3
Great location and the staff was great. The room was extra clean, nice snacks in the room, and the restaurant/bar was nice. 1/2 price all food in the restaurant on Saturdays and it was excellent Thai food. I highly recommend this place.
2.5
The service was outstanding. Our luggage was picked up at checkout time and taken via taxi to the main office to be stored. This was a free service and we then met at the office to get our taxi to the airport which was a very reasonable fee. Apartment was lovely and clean and modern and the location was amazing, literally in the centre of temple bar. Could not be happier and will definitely use again.
2.0
Be prepared for a very loud stay, we liked it’s central location, it had a little washing machine, no dryer, kitchen with dishwasher! Pull out couch, nice big bed, but be prepared with earplugs and loud music/drinking until 2am and the truck unloading kegs at 7am lol
1.5
Our overall stat6 was ok. We had an issue with the mould and very unpleasant smell in the bathroom. There was also a water leak from the ceing light in the second bedroom Be aware there is also construction across the road ehich starts very early in the morning..

Good location - right in the tourist area of dublin and walking distance to most things. The apartments are located directly next to a very very busy bar. Our room overlooked the patio of this bar and as a resiult, noise and the smell of cigarette smoke invaded our room. The sofa bed was sub par - uncomfortable to say the least. Apartment looked brand new and was clean except for the water residue that had accumulated on the shower tiles. You also have to get keys for the apartment from their main office about 20 mins away (walking).
0.8
The apartment itself was great no issues except from the hot water not working after a while due to the system in ireland. The noise pollution in the morning with the pubs having their metal beer barrels recycled at 6.45am was horrendous. Would reccomend staying outside of the temple bar area for this reason.
2.5
Amazing location! The apartment was well managed and the noise not noticeable.
