House worked well for our trip, Mags was easy to communicate with and responsive. Shopping plaza a short walk that has a large grocery store so everything you could need is there. The walk into town is 20 minutes the road is fairly busy so we did take a cab a few times which was quick and easy. We did have a bit of trouble with the Wi-Fi being spotty. On-site laundry is a small unit good for tiny loads and we usually hung things to dry. We enjoyed exploring Galway,this was a good home base.
