A wonderful eclectic home in the heart of Galway. This home is a mere two minute scenic canal walk from bars, food and shopping. We chose this location in particular for its proximity to NUI Galway’s campus, as it is a 5 minute car ride from the main campus.
Hosts Delores and her husband were great, providing excellent amenities and a delicious breakfast every morning.
The rooms were nicely decorated, the bathroom and showers were clean.
The only issues we encountered (I was traveling with a parent who had some limited ability to climb stairs) was that in her house all rooms are up a significant staircase. It is steep, but there are hand railings. The picture of the property shows the first flight shows this, but may not express how steep / narrow it is. If you have a big bag you need to bring to your room, it may be difficult.
The property provides one parking spot in back which is shared with business. We had a mid-size car and it was VERY tight to get in an out of the alleyway. We actually opted to park out front- which has a 2 hour paid limit, but they don’t check after 6:30PM I believe. If you have a small car, the alleyway entrance should not be much of an issue.
