Unfortunately our stay left much to be desired. We chose this accommodation based on the previous reviews and much of the emphasis was placed on the hygiene and cleanliness of the apartment. The apartment was not clean according to the standard expected. It had to be re-cleaned on the first day as unfortunately I didn’t feel satisfied or comfortable. There was a dirty oven, dirty cutlery packed in the drawer, dirty frying pan and poorly cleaned floors and surfaces. Also the bed linen had stains on. This was all mentioned to the host straight after checking in. In addition to this the kitchen was ill-equipped. For example there was no spatula so I had to flip an egg with a fork. Other than concerns about cleanliness and equipment unfortunately we had very poor sleep for the duration of our stay. Although the street noise was mentioned in the advert as light noise for light sleepers, I feel this was completely understated. The noise was absolutely horrific. Myself and my three children all struggled to sleep for the duration of our stay. It got so bad that unfortunately we had to check out early as we were all struggling with sleeplessness. In a nutshell we had been so excited for our first stay in Galway and we had come a long way from Dubai. This accommodation really tainted our experience of our time in Galway and I only hope that these small things can be improved upon for future guests. Regards, Megan
