We stayed a month at Blaithin’s flat at Custume Place and absolutely loved the location! The old town centre of Athlone is charming, full of great restaurants, cafes, pubs, shopping, and even large grocery stores (all walkable from the flat). The Shannon River is beautiful, and we had priceless views of it and the waterfront every morning and evening from the huge windows in the living room. We both were remote working, and the wifi in the flat worked flawlessly, even supporting simultaneous zoom meetings without missing a beat. Super handy to have a washer/dryer in the flat too. We found the cheap street parking zone just around the corner from the Radisson (about 3 minute walk from the flat) so parked for 3 Euros a day all month. Be sure to visit the Athlone Bookstore around the corner, The Fatted Calf restaurant down the block for a world-class dining experience (make a reservation!), and the excellent Lebanese restaurant, Al Mezza, on Bastion St. GREAT STAY! Thank you, Blaithin!!
