GREAT location! Easy walk to just about anywhere you want to go in Galway. Communication was fantastic. Amenities were spot on! And it is SUCH a bonus to have access to washe and dryer. Highly recommend!
This place was in the heart of Galway. Shops, restaurants, and pubs were within short walking distance. This place is first class, our best rental while touring Ireland.
Great location, close to everything in Latin quarter! Very clean, very communicative staff. Dryer didn’t work so the offered to pick up our laundry for us and return after it had been cleaned. Beautiful condo overlooking the Spanish arch. We had easy access to everything.
The place was nice, clean and looked exactly as pictured. Thank you!

Disliked: Check-in
It was centrally located, but noisy at night. There were some issues with the washer/dryer, the toilet and the parking was not communicated well. The furnishings were clean, but cheap.
The property overlooked the parade at the Spanish Arch overlooking the Carribe River. Beautiful location, very convenient to everything. I would recommend this property. Bright, airy, clean. Totally enjoyed our stay.
As presented. Clean, safe area with incredible views. Beds were very comfortable and everything in the apartment was modern and pristine. Easy walk from train station. Centrally located. Would book again.
We loved the proximity to everything we wanted to see & do & eat!! Beautiful view from our balcony. Great food recommendations! Would love to come back again.

Liked: Cleanliness, location, listing accuracy
Disliked: Communication
This place has a great location but a little hard to find. It is located above a restaurant. Parking is not next to property and you need to pay at another garage with a 5 minute walk. It had coffee for first day only. It took a while to get a response to questions . Loved the view and living area.
The place was clean, secure and right in the heart of everything. I would recommend this to anyone

It was a pleasure to host Charles, I would have no hesitation in recommending him to other Hosts. He left the apartment clean and tidy and communication was great. I hope to welcome him back in the near future.
This rental is located in the heart of Galway- we couldn't have asked for a better location for exploring the city. That being said, revelers on the street were quite loud well into sleeping hours. Not great for our kids' sleep. Pack ear plugs and a white noise machine.
The apartment has a beautiful view. It’s close to the Spanish Arch which is located near Shop Street, the quay, coastal walk and river walk. Lots of restaurants and cafes in easy walking distance.
Communication with the host company was excellent. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay here again in f we come to Galway.
