We traveled with 8 people. 3 of the bedrooms had an en-suite, providing maximum privacy for our large group. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rose H. 26 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great location in Galway The big pros of this place are location and size! A once in a lifetime trip with adult children/spouses and this space was large enough for the 7 of us and it is close enough to walk to public transit around Ireland. Easy to communicate with and check in/check out easy. Part of our group ended up delayed by a day but part of us made it and check in and communication was everything! Please note that by American standards the bathrooms/showers are small but there are enough that the space works and the common space was really appreciated. We would stay here again if we go with a large group. Thanks for a good time in Galway! ##### Rose H.

Friday pm until Sunday am . Great weekend albeit too brief . Hospitality excellent . The house was comfortable and convenient for town centre . The main photo is slightly misleading as the bay window is not part of the let . It’s part of a seperate property. The house is spacious enough for 6 and could sleep 9 if needs be . The en suite shower rooms were a real bonus . ##### Graham M. Stayed 2 nights in May 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Orlagh K. 30 Jul 2021 Liked: Communication, location Disliked: Listing accuracy #### Great location but house not what we expected Host very pleasant. Location excellent. But a few issues with house. No tv channels, lack of mirrors, towels and seating in sitting room for a house for 9 people. Kitchen too small and dark to prepare meals in and not possible for 9 guests to eat in. External images are not of the house but the apartment to the rear. ##### Orlagh K.

Great location and great size. Everything needed is close enough to walk too. Did need blankets and only had one extra but we survived besides that no complaints. ##### Nathan S.

Great parking options as we had 2 cars, laundry available and basic but functional kitchen. Basic amenities but great spot for our trip to Galway. Great communication from hosts and I would highly recommend. ##### Laurie R. Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mary I. 7 Oct 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### gorgeous view and lots of bathrooms! views from the house are gorgeous. location is perfect; walkable to just about all of Galway. but out far enough to have very little noise and foot traffic. we were able to walk from the dublin/galway bus depot (10-15 minutes). To Eyre square (20 minutes). we have rented other homes in Ireland and almost always are short of bathrooms (most homes have 3-4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms). I was traveling with my adult siblings so 4 bathrooms was fantastic! the home is modern, efficient and spare. a few reviews mentioned the lack of coffee maker, also no blow dryer. but when I asked about the blow dryer, one was sent over the same day💚. so a few of the warmer touches aren’t there (yet), but the beds are quite comfy. the amount of windows and light is cheerful. we didn’t do much cooking so can’t speak to kitchen set up. but overall: we would rent it again! ##### Mary I. Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Ronan O. 14 Jul 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Good overall Good overall but lacked a few homely touches such as tea and coffee. Good for what we wanted. ##### Ronan O. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nancy O. 29 Jun 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### The location was perfect. Close enough to walk to City Centre, if we wanted. Views wonderful The 5 bedrooms provided enough privacy but the living room was a great gathering place. It was very clean and fully equipped kitchen. We loved stepping out on the deck, looking at the water. The hosts were so friendly and available to assist if needed. . I would definitely stay at this property again and recommend to all looking to stay in Galway ##### Nancy O. Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2022
