I would not recommend this property.
On the plus side, it's located in a quiet neighbourhood and only a short stroll from local restaurants, bars and shops. The big staircase window is also a nice feature letting in lots of natural light.
On the not-so-plus side, the online pictures for this property flatter a lot and we were disappointed by the slightly grim reality (and that's putting it mildly). This is a place that desperately needs sprucing up and a thorough cleaning regime. If you really must stay here, do not open the oven door under any circumstances and approach loo seats with care. The ensuite shower is also best used with eyes half-closed.
It's a real shame the property is being let in its current condition as the house has loads of potential. I've stayed in some great Airbnbs before and also worked in hotels (cleaning and maintenance), so I hope the property owner will appreciate this constructive feedback: if this place was modernised and clean, it could be an absolute gem and a magnet for future travellers.
Don't let this review put you off Clifden and Connemara - they're both fantastic places and well worth a visit.
