Dessie's place is perfect for getting away from the hustle and bustle of the city, yet is still the ideal location for everything you might need for a short or long term stay. Grocery stores, restaurants (check out the smoked burger at the Camp Street Cafe!), a laundromat, etc. are literally all around the corner.
We were able to catch a bus to Galway from Oughterard on a Saturday and got to enjoy the Saturday Market, an escape room excursion at Great Escape, and the Galway Museum all in one day.
Dessie is hospitable, humorous, and considerate. Be aware that you may have a neighbor across the hall but we never encountered an issue.
Thanks again, Dessie!
