Joan’s place is just lovely. It is a real home from home with plenty of towels and extra blankets (really soft) to help you feel comfortable.
There is no tv in the apartment but there are books and board games and the wifi was strong enough to allow us to stream programmes which was nice.
In terms of location, the apartment is about 15 mins from the centre of Galway and there are several buses that go there so very convenient. It is in a quiet enough area so that you can have a restful stay which was perfect for our needs.
Joan is a lovely host and responds quickly to messages which is great. She is also really thoughtful and when we advised that we were vegan she picked up some milk and cheese that we could eat.
We really enjoyed our stay and are happy to recommend to others.
