Ideal Location

Mere blocks from train station, downtown, tours, but a relatively quiet street across from Augustinian Church. About 1 mile walk from large grocery store, blocks from Spar with basics. We were amazed at how quiet it stayed even heading into St. Patrick's Day weekend, with full revelrie one street over.

It was a perfect place!

The only reason why I gave a one star is because Home Away’s website was not working when I booked the place. That gave many headache’s early on. Other than that, it was the perfect place for our stay!

Apartment in a Busy City

Nice Clean Kitchen, adorable patio with ambience. Frustrated with the following: No instructions on how to operate the washer (washed clothing were always damp - had to hang laundry all over apartment to dry). No instructions on how to operate the heat. Living Room Furniture was stained. Did not sit on the furniture at all because of that. Would be nice to include a clean top sheet for both bedrooms. Not a fan of sleeping with a comforter; even though the duvet cover was clean -- the insert is not always washed. Bathroom very small but clean and modern. Costly to stay in this apartment in addition to paying for parking that is not convenient. Stressful Stay.

Convenient but Noisy

Townhome clean and convenient. Would not allow us to check in early even though available to. In unit washer dryer…Dryer does not work. (Whole reason we booked this unit) Outside courtyard dirty and unusable. Home very clean but musty smelling. Windows must remain open due to smell… Galway vibrant so you then hear the late night partiers. (To be expected) Then 5 am trash collection, then the leaf blowers to clean up the glass. Our last morning there 5 am church across street being power washed. Did I mention 5 am! No AC and musty smell required windows to remain open so no rest for the weary. Very convenient to Galway but don’t expect a restful night. Would not chose to stay here again.

Excellent Location & Wonderful Accommodations

My family thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Galway. The townhouse is located in the heart of everything. We parked our car at the parking garage and never needed it again except to go to the Cliffs of Moher. Everything is within walking distance from the townhouse. The home is itself is clean and has everything you need. It’s a bit small but was perfect for our family of three. The property manager is professional and friendly. I would stay there again and highly recommend.

So close to everything! Was such an easy walk to just about anything. Clean, quiet, and cozy. O ly struggle was with regards to the washer/ dryer. The two in one setup takes forever. We spent the extra money and found a self-serve laundromat. Thanks to the host.

Great Location

This condo was perfect for a stay in Galway! It is in a great location - just steps away from a great part of the city. Tons of restaurants, shops, and pubs. Very short walk to the docks if you’re taking a ferry to one of the Aran Islands. Unit was very clean. Beds were very comfortable. Would definitely stay here again!

Lovely apartment tucked away in the heart of the Latin Quarter

This apartment was the perfect location for our stay in Galway. It was very comfortable and had everything we needed. We felt safe here as well and the street was not too noisy. They are wonderful and accommodating hosts. The one thing I would note is that parking is not on the property but in a car park for which you have to pay. If you are traveling by car it may also be tricky to unload as the street is one-way and there is no room to pull to the side.
