Provider-sourced guest reviews.
De locatie was prima.
De sloten van beide badkamers werkten niet. De douche op de begane grond overstroomde, en aan de handdouche zat geen douchekop. De bedden waren erg hard. We konden geen koffie zetten, want de stekker van de Nespresso paste niet op het stopcontact. Er zat geen deksel op de prullenbak in de keuken. De gang was erg rommelig. 1 sleutel voor 6 personen is te weinig: diegenen die als eerste thuis waren konden de deur niet afsluiten, anders kon de rest er niet meer in.
The parking was terrible - the host suggested we park 500m away but with 6 suitcases between us, this was definitely not an option. We did finally find a park closer to the property but it was so much trouble just getting it sorted. Guess this just might be part of being close to the city. There was also a heap of new laundry piled under the stairs - not sure what that was about. Hard to get the upstairs shower going and the sensor light kept going out leaving it pitch black while in the shower.

The location was great
Fantastic location. Stylish interior.
I stayed in the room with 2 singles. It was hard to get into the inside single bed. Think the furniture needs to be changed around.
Easy walk to the heart of Galway! Convenient overnight parking nearby!
Short on basic supplies (toilet paper etc). Bare minimum in kitchen - wouldn’t be able to prepare a meal, but fine for takeout or ready-to-eat.
Roomy apartment, clean, modern. Grocery store just down the street. Close to walk to the Latin Quarter ( 10 minutes) for pubs & night life.
No number on outside to match address. Many steps to bedroom
Spacious enough for our group.
Difficult door lock, no coffee, soap. Parking was challenging until after 5 pm. Parking fees must be paid every two hours until 6:30 pm. Noisy.
Excellent host, great location
Rooms would be better if they they had blackout blinds, bright very early in the morning
The property is in a great location. Right downtown, not too noisy though. Near shops, restaurants, bars. Convenience store across the street. Parking available right outside. It is beautifully renovated. Looks and feels brand new.
It was a little hot on the upper floor. No way to turn on the A/C. Had to open the windows and it’s a busy area. Also, we couldn’t get the front door to lock. It was a lil unnerving sleeping with an unlocked front door is a busy city! I’m sure that’s been corrected by now.
The location was amazing. It made it so easy to see all that we wanted to see in Galway. Communication with the host was good as well.
It would have been nice to have another set or two of keys. Having a few couples there made it difficult to coordinate with having to leave keys in the lock box and not being able to lock the door if others were still out. I know it is also constrained by a difficult layout, but the living/dining area was a bit difficult to gather in.
The house is incredible. It has everything you need. Everything is beautiful, very clean, and very well maintained. The person who hosted us is very kind. I will definitely come back.
The location, near local pubs, coffee shop and a convenience store
It was nice but the price you pay there was no body soap, shampoo, or coffee. There was a coffee maker but no coffee. No microwave. Only one key supplied which was inconvenient with 5 people.
Location, space, cleanliness
Noise from the street
Owner/manager Jackie was very helpful when we called to say there was no iron, hairdryer or tea towels. Dropped off next morning. Property is very well placed to walk into town. Parking is a bit of an issue but there is Galway CC car park opposite Lidl ( a 5 min walk away) which costs 6 euro per day. You need to download an app to pay. There are at least 5 bars within 100m of the property which makes for some noise and also there is a road running next to the property. Expect some noise as a result. Inside the decor is urban chic and looks mostly new. Beds are comfortable and the linen clean and fresh. Ample towels. Bring your own tea and coffee. You can get essential supplies from a tiny grocery shop across the road. MCSwiggans is a very good restaurant and is spitting distance away. Book early.
Location made for some noise but equally location added to character.
The property is in an ideal area to visit Galway city. It is newly refurbished to a high standard, with very clever use of space to give ample bedroom and living space for any break.
nothing at all!
Great location and facilities, very clean, good parking around, would definitely recommend and visit again
Great location, easy to find and very central. Host was very helpful and accommodating. Will definitely look to stay again.
