The location is perfect. You really can’t beat it if you want access to the center of Galway. Lots of useful tips as well.
Host was very responsive pre booking and has arranged discounts at a number of local places including lally tours.
There are rules which they ask you to follow, and they are all common sense such as asking you to respect quiet hours and remove shoes.
The wooden beams add character to this unique location.
Only reason I did not give five stars is the electrical heating went out late on our last night. There were no instructions on where to find the the fuse box or what to do in such a situation -and the fuse box was unlabeled so it was hard to figure out what tripped it.
I had tried to message the host/contacts but the maintenance number did not work and the other numbers went unanswered. ( though it was late at night, it is important that someone be available in situations when there is no heating).
I had called Airbnb who offers to move us but as my kids were sleeping we decided to make do. Airbnb was very responsive in the end and gave us a partial credit for the affected night for which I am grateful.
Overall I’d recommend the location and the host with the hope that they will resolve the issue of emergency contact number.
