Malachy and I had a lovely 3-night stay in Diane's apartment in Galway. Diane was very helpful and organising our stay was easy. The apartment is compact but has everything you'd need for a base to explore the city from. There is no TV which didn't bother us since we ventured out more than we were in. The location is ideal, has private parking, a Tesco store across the street, is a short walk from the city centre and Salthill is a only a 10 minute drive away. The first evening we wandered towards Shop Street and stopped in Cooke's Restaurant & Wine Bar for dinner. It was so good we went back a second night!
