Karol is a fantastic host. She made me feel at home right away, and I have no doubt that if I come to Galway again, I will try and stay with her. Her house is about a 15 minute walk from the centre of town, or an easy bus/taxi ride. Karol gave me plenty of tips on where to eat and drink in her neighborhood and throughout Galway as well as what tours to do. I slept well in the bed, and I absolutely loved her power shower. The Galway races were on when I was there, and it was really nice to have a few pints with Karol one night and enjoy the craic.
