Geraldine's house is right in the mix of things -- just a short walk from Galway city center and a number of pubs, shopping, and a lovely walk along the shore. The house is very clean and was roomy enough for all eight of us! There was even a dining area for us to eat and play cards at night.
We would have liked extra bedding for a chilly night, but other than that it was grand.
I recommend Geraldine's place for those looking for somewhere to stay in Galway.
