Tessie was very busy when we arrived at the appartment but she took her time to welcome us. She offered us a cup of tea and something to eat. Great family and a wonderful place to stay. Unfortunately we were too tired to have a real conversation with Tessie and her family (Stayed 5 days at Temple Bar in Dublin before - ruined our bodies by guiness and just booked 1 night in galway). Next morning we were allowed to make breakfast ourselves (delicious). Very quiet neighborhood, good traffic connections to galway center. Tessie will help you with everything if you have any questions. Very busy life - but she manages it - Great women! Five stars *****
