The location of the apartment is what really makes it worthwhile. You couldn’t be more centrally located in Galway. Fantastic for getting around on foot to every part of town. Nice and secluded in a courtyard behind a row of shops so no noise either. Good size kitchen and living room area with all modern equipment.
Hosts were very communicative and gave some good recommendations for local restaurants and places to see.
My only complaint would be that the shower wasn’t working the entire time we were there. Water was trickling out, meaning trying to shower was a waste of time and energy. Fortunately we were able to shower at a relatives place who lives in the town but if we didn’t have that option available to us we would have had to move to a different apartment. I notified the host who said they would send someone to look at it, but they didn’t show up. The following day we were told it was a problem in the local area, but water pressure everywhere else in the apartment seemed fine. A shame, because the apartment was perfect for us aside from that.
Reluctantly giving 3/5 stars. With a working shower it would be an easy 5, and somewhere we would look to stay again when in Galway.
