We had a great stay overall! The location was excellent and easy to find. We drove and easily found a spot (as instructed) on the side of the building. It was super-walkable to everything and right above the Tesco grocery store, which was definitely convenient. The hosts even provided a courtesy card for discounts!The space itself provided plenty of room and was perfect for two couples, each with our own bathrooms. We especially appreciated the espresso/coffee machine. We didn’t have a chance to use the outdoor spaces, but they were both nice. Important to note that the beds were comfortable as well.Communication was excellent and quick when needed! We would definitely stay here again!

There is not enough space here to say how AMAZING this VRBO was to stay at. The photos DO NOT do it justice! Fantastic location, only a short (very safe) walk (minutes) to the active downtown. We walked back and forth from the apartment several times a day. It had everything we needed and more! Close to food, music, stores…. The only bad thing about our stay, WE HAD TO LEAVE! Conor and Orla were very attentive landlords. I can not say enough about our stay in Galway at their place! Terry
