What a fabulous place to stay if you’re visiting Galway. Liz was an extremely gracious host and actually spent some time with me while I was there. I met two of her children as well. The apartment was beautiful, everything you need is there and the proximity to fun things was great. Hopefully I can stay there another time as well.

The interior of the apartment had everything we needed and plenty of wonderful books and visiting guides.

Enjoyable Stay

My husband and I stayed here for 4 nights. We particularly loved the location. Very close to several lively pubs and eateries but far enough away to be v quiet. The apartment was spotlessly clean, the kitchen well equipped the bed comfortable.. Minor quibbles, the duvet was a bit thin and it would have been nice to have a shower mat to avoid slipping

The apartment was absolutely perfect, the car park was really handy to have (although a tight squeeze to get into it so be confident with your driving), the apartment was so much better than the pictures and a perfect spot for exploring Galway, we were close enough to the hustle and bustle without being kept up by it into the late hours. The kitchen had everything we needed (despite not using it as we enjoyed some fab food out in Galway), the living area was good and you could get Netflix on the TV if you wanted, the bed was comfy and enough space to hang all our clothes up for the weekend!Towels were provided and apartment was spotlessWould 100% recommend to anyone staying in Galway!
