This apartment could not be located any better. It is less than 10 minutes walk from EVERYTHING in Galway including the shopping/pedestrian area, train and coach station, and all the sights in the city. In general, Galway was a great home base for me to take day trips by bus to many of the great sights to see in western Ireland. The host is amazing and tells you exactly where to go to get an authentic Irish experience in the local pubs and other attractions. The apartment was beautiful and gave us enough space for everyone in the family to have the space they needed. If you are visiting Galway this is the place to rent!
