The apartment had a great view and creative flair. It was right in town and walkable to all town amenities. Also, close to the beauties of Connemara. The apartment,however, was not what I would call "boutique." You have to walk through 2 floors of a hostel to get there, and the apartment is located within a hostel, which was quite noisy well into the night during our visit and negatively affected our experience. Roxy made sure our check in went smoothly, and everything was very clean.
