Irene's place is in a great location, and Irene was a good host. We had some issues unfortunately with noise one night from the restaurant next door, but it seems this was a very unfortunate one off, and also with noise from a broken shower upstairs. However, Irene responded quickly and did everything she could to help out. We were just unlucky! The apartment is spacious and easy walking distance to everything we needed whilst staying in Galway.
