Gillian and Sean are your quintessential accommodating hosts -- warm, friendly, inviting, helpful, and incredibly resourceful! The listing was exactly as described and conveniently located in the house so that you can pop in and out without feeling like you're disturbing anyone. I was able to make myself a lovely, little breakfast every morning with the amenities provided for and use the washer/dryer without any hassle! The scenic, tranquil walk from their house into the city center was one of my FAVORITE things to do during my stay in Galway. They generously provided a lift when needed and always had my best interest at heart -- Gillian suggested I reschedule my plans for my Connemara tour due to poor weather, and she was right! Ended up going on the day she recommended which turned out fabulously! Staying with the Carolans made my entire trip easy, comfortable, and, subsequently, much more enjoyable. I couldn't have asked for a better place to stay in Galway :]
