William's place was great! It's about a 20 minute walk around the lake to the city center. We actually enjoyed the walk. We walked it twice a day when we stayed. It was nice to grab dinner and a few drinks then walk home. It made us feel better for the added calories and let the food and drinks settle. William was also great on communication. He sent me a message right after I booked his place. He then sent me messages ensuring I was all set to check in. William's room and bathroom was so clean. We were on our second week in Ireland and this was the cleanest place we stayed in. I would definitely recommend staying here if you are coming to Galway. Easy check in, nice clean room and a refreshing walk around a lake to city center sums up our stay here.
