My friend and I stayed at Shane’s place during our trip to Galway. The location is on the outskirts on town but the bus gets you there no problem. Only a short walk from the bus station. His dog, Buddy, greeted us every time we came back, which made us happy. You can lock your room when you sleep and when you leave for the day. Multiple toilets available. He leaves snacks for breakfast in the lounge, and we loved that. Next time we visit Galway, we will be sure to stay at Shane’s again.
