Our host made us feel welcome! Directions to the place were helpful and the location was wonderful. Galway is a busy city, so it was nice to be set back a bit in a more residential part of town; it was probably a ten minute walk to our new favorite bar. He communicated with us and the guest guide at the house was so helpful. The kitchen was perfect for making a light breakfast and snacks. Also great that he had games and books available! The place is more beautiful than the pictures, and we can't recommend it enough!
