Perfect location to base a visit to Galway. Close to everything and the Cathedral is a beautiful backdrop. Could not have stayed at a better place and really loved Galway and the Wild Atlantic area.

We'll definitely consider this property again! We loved the space available to us so that our family group could relax together or retreat to quiet rooms. Doreen made sure that we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay, and we really appreciated it. The location was perfect for us. We comfortably walked to events and shops. It really was a wonderful place for us to stay. Thank you to our host!

From the start of the booking the host was responsive and helpful. The host also met us upon arrival with coffee and snacks waiting. We were also able to check in about an hour early due to the timing of our train arrival. It fit our family of 6 perfectly. While two of the bedrooms are small, the beds were comfortable. The walk to the city center was easy and quick. Overall an excellent place to stay!

This property has the perfect location near Galway Cathedral. This is a relatively quiet site and a very quiet building...every wall that I knocked on was solid concrete so there was no transfer of sound from neighbouring units. It is an easy walk from the Property to just about anywhere you would want to go while visiting Galway. Doreen, the Host, equipped this suite with everything one could possibly need, which for us included a travel crib and high chair for the 15 month old and...a plethora of welcome treats to enjoy after a day of travel. Upon our arrival I realized that I had inadvertently left some items that I had purchased in Dublin on the train and Doreen hopped in her car, drove to the train station and retrieved them for me...talk about going the extra mile! With 5 adults and an infant in our group we might have wished for slightly more bedroom real estate and a third bath would not have gone unappreciated but all-in-all the space met our day-to-day needs nicely. We would choose this Property again in a heartbeat. Doreen was a model host and we couldn't say enough good things about her.

Perfect location

Wonderful stay here! Accommodations are clean and just as described. Cool view of the Cathedral right across the street. Easily walkable to everything and close to all the activity but just far enough away that it is quiet. Also right across from University of Galway campus so very accessible to that as well. Highly recommend this place and Doreen is a great host!
