Provider-sourced guest reviews.
I liked the location, the host’s flexibility, the simplicity of access. Great bedroom fan, comfortable mattress and sheets, storage, and space. Good amenities.
The bathroom has a putrid, rotten smell coming from the pipes. It is very ripe and there is definitely mold growing. Health hazard. Also the surfaces such as the kitchen table were not wiped clean or disinfected before our arrival. The couch is so ratty and sunken in that I wouldn’t let a pet sit on it.
Ubicación excelente, cerca de todo
Tolle Lage und eine gemütliche Atmosphäre
Wie zu erwarten, durch das Pub darunter am Wochenende sehr laut. Ab 1 Uhr war dann aber Ruhe.
Self-catering. Everything was provided plus notes from host.
There is a strong smell of damp in the shower/toilet that needs fixing.
La ubicación muy buena, tiene de todo estás cómo en casa. Le falta una cafetera aunque te dejan café soluble.
El ruido de la calle, se oye la música del pub y hablar a la gente, si eres delicado para dormir llevaté tapones.
Excellent communication in advance of arrival. All instructions accurate and easy to follow. Location is minutes from Eyre square. You need to be active as first flight of stairs is quiet steep and there are 2 flights.

Es acogedor y bien repartido. Falla la limpieza y eso hace que la experiencia sea mala.
Falta limpieza y eso es importante.no hay terraza como anuncian. Hay mucho ruido por un bar de abajo. No hay campana extractora. Un vestido de alguien en el armario…. Campus de alguien en la ducha… un armario. Con aceite sal etc de alguien, nevera en mal estado. Sucia, estante roto y congelador con tanto hielo que no puedes meter nada. Dos microondas algo extraño.
Personale e posizione
Poca pulizia
Location, communication with accommodation. Property was clean and tidy exactly what was required, room was available early and would stay again
La location centrale per visitare la città
Pulizia non adegauata , le scale d’ingresso sembravano portare a chissà quale stamberga. Le lenzuola non sembravano pulite , nell’appartamento numero 2 volevamo usare il divano letto a causa della dimensione troppo piccola del letto matrimoniale ma non solo non c’erano le lenzuola ma l’unica coperta disponibile da poter usare era completamente macchiata . Il divano inoltre era sporco e pieno di briciole . Lo staff ci ha solo contattato per messaggio via Booking per comunicare l’orario di check out .
La proximité avec le centre-ville.
Le ménage (quand il reste des miettes sur la table basse, c'est que le reste ne doit pas être très propre ...) L'insonorisation des appartements : on peut entendre tout ce que font les voisins. Les employés du bar qui montent à l'étage (le soir) pour déposer du matériel. Ce bruit est plus dérangeant que la musique du bar quand on essaye de dormir.
Small and outdated. Smell in the closet. Bed was not very comfortable and pillows need a change.
The host was very helpful throughout my stay.
Everything was perfect clean
Couldn’t of asked for any more! Had everything you’d need even an iron. Great location too

Great location, easy walking distance to everything. Soundproofing was good. We stayed during a festival but back apartment was quiet and allowed us to relax.
Cleanliness was not up to scratch. Weird smell from bathroom, possible plumbing problem. I expected basic, but still! There were basic things missing and signs of a lack of care. Marks on wall, dirty floor, door mising on kitchen cabinet. Needs a bit of attention all round.
Emplacement idéal et environnement calme. A quelques minutes à pied du quartier latin!
Appartement bien équipé mais réparations et remplacement mobilier à envisager: - Le micro-ondes ne fonctionnait pas. - Pas d’eau chaude dans la cuisine et au lavabo - Canapé HS - Literie inconfortable - Vue sur les poubelles sur la terrasse - Impossibilité d’ouvrir les fenêtres de plus de quelques centimètres
CheckIn war super einfach. Die Wohnung ist sehr Zentral. Der Lärm der Bar hat uns nicht gestört!
Die Unterkunft war nicht wircklich geputzt. Tassen dreckig, Spiegel fleckig, Boden krümelig
Very clean convention to all shops restaurants pub's great place to stay will book again for sure
DIe Lagę war perfekt, wenn auch sehr laut über dem Pub! Angaben zum Parken waren hilfreich. Anleitungen zum check in waren sehr präzise.
Das Bad mit Durchlauferhitzer, ohne Seife und Shampoo hat nicht zum Preis gepasst. Die Fenster waren schmutzig, teilweise mit Insekten. Das Stiegenhaus war ungepflegt und es lag vom Staubsauger bis zur Wäsche alles herum.
So quite in a busy area and I was just left do my own thing
It was close to downtown.
It was LOUD and smelled like cigarette smoke.
La localisation hyper centre Les tissus des gérants très appréciables sur les applications de stationnement. Ils ont pris récemment de mes noivbzzkkz
La propreté, ménage hâtif et équipements vieillissants
It was a great place in a great location.
Bardzo wygodne łóżko, czysto, super lokalizacja, kuchnia wyposażona idealnie, zameldowanie bez problemu.
Parking płatny online.
Gute Lage
Sehr laut vom Pub unten und der Abfluss stinkt
Location and having facilities
Bed was so small Loud pubs downstairs
Die Lage ist sehr zentral und dennoch sehr ruhig nachts. Vor dem Haus kann man gegen Gebühr 2h parken, nachts ist es gebührenfrei. Das Apartment ist schön eingerichtet, die Betten sind bequem und es war Kaffee, Tee und Zucker da. Danke! Alles war sauber und die Abwicklung der Buchung lief prima. Für einen 3-Tafes-Trip nach Galway absolut zu empfehlen!
Nichts - alles gut!
The property had plenty of room. Kitchen had a mini fridge and all needed tools. Shower was great and hot! Washer and dryer available for use which was very appreciated . The BEST fan ever. Location was amazing!
The couch sat super low and the bed only had a mattress, no box springs. These were not deal breakers by any means, but should be noted.
Location was brilliant. No noise from downstairs. Slept pretty well. Small fan in the room. (I think this should be mandatory in accommodation) Would stay again.
No headboard on the bed. Could of been abit cleaner overall.
Great location in town centre. Bedroom clean and comfortable and well furnished. Bathroom good condition. Quiet despite pub downstairs. Jen very responsive to our queries.
Kitchen/living room shabby and poorly maintained. Cupboard door off and on floor, dirty rugs, old sofa, layout poor- no way to watch Tv in comfort. Tv small and quite old fashioned. Poor kitchen equipment- very random. Made salad in a saucepan. No hot water in bathroom sink- tap seized up. Bedroom blind not blackout - got full morning light. All windows needed a clean .
I really liked the comfort and location
The door code was not sent on time, which caused my mood to drop a bit.
A experiência de parecer estar numa casa própria
Embora não tenha pedido. Fiquei com o apartamento virado de costas para a rua. Acredito que se tivesse pedido ter-me -iam oferecido
The room was clean and had everything we need. The location was amazing, 5 min walk from the main Street with all the pubs and restaurants! Easy to find and the host very helpful!
Great location, roomy, kitchen well stocked, nice and clean, close to Galway centre and shops.
The first night was a little noisy outside but we didn’t notice it the next night.
Excelent location. Great help with parking instructions.
Liten lägenhet, fräscht. Bra läge. Enklare köksredskap med vattenkokare, kyl och frys och spis etc. för egna måltider.
Branta trappor, vår lägenhet låg två våningar upp. Inga problem för oss men kan vara det för den som har svårigheter.
Está céntrico
Está encima de un bar y por la noche hay bastante ruido
Well equipped, clean and easily accessible. Perfect location just 5-10 minutes walk from most of Galway’s attractions. Very quiet and safe area. Will definitely book again!
The location was great and the communication with the manager was excellent
It was incredibly noisy. The bar is just below and the noise level is extremely high right up to 1 am.
The location and the accessibility.
Nothing! It was all great.
It was very comfortable, spacious and felt homely.
Netflix on TV wasn’t seem to get connected. It was shown with an error message despite connecting to the WiFi. YouTube was also acting slow.
Heel lekker centraal gelegen in de stad. Parkeren voor de deur is duur maar op de parkeerplaats van Dyke road sta je de hele dag voor 10 euro. Keurig appartement met mooie keuken en goed bed en douche.
De rumoer op straat tot 's avonds laat was wel wat storend.
Chuveiro/ cama macia/ roupa de cama e / toalhas limpas , tudo excelente. Apesar de estar localizado em cima do pub as Janelas com vidro com isolamento acústico não deixavam o barulho incomodar 🙏🏻 Está muito bem localizado , excelente ! dá para fazer tudo a pé ! É tudo como nas fotos mesmo.
Para uma estadia curta não gostei de ter que comprar detergente p louça, as louças não estavam bem limpas, mesa da cozinha engordurada. Forno e microondas também. Poderia ter um kit cortesia de produtos de higiene pessoal, e detergente de louça , pois não tem lava louça e pedem para deixar a louça limpa no checkout. O nosso quarto era no segundo andar , então tinha escadas para subir, mas são largas e tranquilas para subir , mesmo se estiver com malas maiores.
Posizione, dotazioni, silenzio, bagno
Prezzo veramente alto ma è tutta Galway ad essere un salasso. Letto un po' piccolo
Very close to Eyre Square, only about 5 minutes. The apartment was very nice. The staff was very helpful. We were very grateful for the welcome pack.
Was not told there were stairs to the apartment. Should have been told in the information. Apart from that we were happy.
Posizione fantastica.
Really lovely little apartment. Fab location.
Nothing.
Central location in Galway. Dyke St car park close and worked well for us. Busy bar below the apartment but still quiet at night.
Double bed a little small and mattress a little soft. You need to use a switch in the kitchen area for hot water in the bathroom sink.
L’emplacement Le fait que ce soit un logement entier
L’humidité Le bruit du bar en dessous
Comfortable bed. Amazing use of space in the apartment and everything you needed in the kitchen plus more! Fantastic location!
Ottima posizione, pulita
Nel bagno c'era sempre cattivo odore . Non era presente l'asciugacapelli
Fantastic location, friendly host with great communication. Comfy bed. and despite the reviews we didn’t have too much noise from the bar below
So central to Galway and easily accessible to everything! Perfect amenities for a couple
Sehr geräumige Wohnung und sehr zentral. Perfekt für einen Kurztrip nach Galway. Alles vorhanden, was man braucht.
Die Bar unten drunter konnte man schon sehr stark hören. Für uns war das nicht schlimm, sollte aber bei einer Buchung auf jeden Fall im Hinterkopf behalten werden.
It is a nice, clean, cozy, quiet, and well equipped apartment. The location is great.
I was a bit concerned about it being above a pub, with noise, but the apartment that I was quiet.
Location was superb with a comfortable bed and good kitchen.
We had to ask the property to come and clean as the room was filthy and we would have been unable to stay.
It was a convenient 5-10 minute walk to all of the pubs/restaurants in Galway. It was nice to have a washer/dryer available in the room. Very quiet even though located directly above a pub. No issues with noise at all.
The bed was a bit uncomfortable and shaky. Be sure you understand where to park if you have a car. We were able to park in the public lot about 10 minute walk from the apartment. A minor inconvenience but workable. Overall, we would stay here again as it was a good value overall.
Great location close within a few minutes walk of Eyre Square about 15 to the university. I did have some noise from downstairs the first night...but the bar staff told me that was exceptionally rare for a Sunday (there was an event on). I heard nothing on the Monday or Tuesday.
I struggled a bit with the heaters the first night and couldn't find instructions so I had to use ChatGPT to get them working. It would be good if they could be programmed to come on in the morning because it was cold when I got up. I think I'd bring my own blow heater if I was staying here again.
Very good location, central to everything.
Toiletries should include shower gels as standard. Damp smell in property
The location of the accommodation is great and all walking distance.
I’ve stayed here twice before but I was disappointed this time, I’ve stayed in both front rooms but this time I stayed at the back, the place wasn’t too clean, the tv wouldn’t work there was sound but no picture and I did message the host but had no reply, seems like take good care of front rooms more so but the back rooms not as much unfortunately. Don’t like to give out but for the price it was disappointing.
The tv didn’t work
The localisation
The apt is above o pub. We get an apt on the 1st floor. It was very noisy even when we enjoyed the night out we could hear the staff of the pub arrange the barrils of beer at 6am. Like a lot of apt in Ireland the apt suffered of humidity. The bed is quite small and the mattress very soft.
Tudo!
L'habitació i el llit còmode, el bany estava net, les mides de l'apartament bé.
Teniem els codis per entrar. Al carrer perfecte però l'apartament vam trobar la porta oberta i una gran bossa de deixalles al mig de l'entrada que dona molt mala impressió. Ho vam informar i mai ningú es va posar en contacta amb nosaltres. La nevera fatal era de les antigues i el congelador a tope de gel.
Lo mejor sin duda la ubicación, en el centro, llegas caminando a todos los puntos de interes, al lado de supermercados, zona de aparcamiento de pago pero a 7€/día....lo cual está muy bien en Galway. La cama bastante cómoda. El piso es acogedor y bien equipado para pasar unos días.
La limpieza dejaba bastante que desear...el horno casi no podía utilizarse, lleno de grasa. La mesa de cocina se pegaban los dedos. El armario de la habitacion huele tanto a humedad que no puedes ni abrirlo, mucho menos dejar nada dentro. Te indican que pongas el extractor para cocinar, pero no tiene salida....los humos van al armario de justo encima.
