Boyd seems like a great guy. He's extremely friendly. He helped us with our arrival and went out of his way to accommodate us and our situation. He lives a few minutes away and made sure we knew he was available if we needed anything. He had left us some basic food and drinks.
The apartment itself was very nice with tons of room.
The location is as good as it gets in this town; and amazing spot. You are right on the river. You are right in the heart of downtown but in the quiet part. I lived in Galway for a year 20 years ago and always loved this side of town. I could imagine myself moving back and if I did this is where I would want to stay.
