Paddy's house has been renovated recently, so everything is pretty much completely new. The kitchen is fully equipped (we cooked full meals everyday) and there is always water for you in the fridge. The en suite bathroom is definitely a big plus! The house is a bit thin-walled, if there are other guests you might hear them going about their business but nothing major. The location of the house is amazing! Not more than 7 minutes walking to the city centre but just far enough to be quiet at night. There are several opportunities to shop just down the street. Paddy was very quick and helpful with answering any and all of our messages if we ever needed anything during our stay! If you need a place to stay when visiting Galway, this is a great base to start from.
