Everyone needs to stay in a castle at least once in their life . Alan's castle is wonderful and if the walls could talk , omg . Alan is very friendly and interesting host and a great host . The surrounding grounds are beautiful and the castle is not far from Galway city centre . The bedroom is warm and cosy but don't expect the same warmth throughout the castle , it is perfectly comfortable but it is an old castle with lots of history and in today's climate of fuel prices you would need to be a millionaire . We loved our stay and as a superhost in Airbnb myself I would say GET IT BOOKED .
