We will be back God willing! If you’re looking for an authentic Galway City experience, this place is for you!

This property is in a great location to see Galway...very walkable! Property owner and manager quite helpful. It is spacious for a large group (we had 7). The living room furniture desperately needs to be updated as the coils in the sofa are shot making it almost unusable and the large single chair is very impractical.

We had a large group traveling together and needed a space with room for all. This space allowed everyone in our party to have a private bedroom but enough shared space to hang out together. It was a short walk to tour pickups and restaurants and entertainment. The property management was friendly and helped with all our needs!

This property allows you to walk to Galways vibrant city center. We had four children in our group and had no difficulty going back and forth during the day.

The location was awesome but check-in and communication left a bit to be desired (Lisa was great though). Additional rules /info shared after reserving the listing. Place not quite as pictured. The actual couch that was in the unit was very well used. Alleyway used to enter was quite dirty / trash filled. Couldn't use blow dryer without making the minute noise detector going off..

Although we worked through communication issues at first to get into the property, the first thing we see at the entrance (down an alley) are several large garbage cans overflowing with what looks like weeks of garbage within 2 feet of the front door. The VRBO photo shows a table set nicely with wine glasses etc and there was one wine glass and 2 coffee mugs for our group of 7. Only one towel for each person (no hand towels, kitchen towels to be found). Lucky if your bedroom had a side table on each side of the bed, but only a few rooms even had a lamp (overhead lighting was your only light). Sofa and chairs look comfy in photo but are so old, the cushions are flat. Host did work hard to communicate and did bring a few more mugs and removed half (not all) garbage so we still had to enter each time to an unpleasant sight.
Having stayed at many other places in Ireland that did so much more with limited space etc, this place could be a gem with more attention to details for their guests.

Our stay in Galway was delightful. This place was spacious, comfortable, and well equipped. We could walk to all the sights in Galway City, we enjoyed the Christmas Fair and the Ferris wheel. Easy location to take Tour bus to Cliffs of Mohr. The host was very communicative and I would definitely recommend staying here to anyone who wishes time in Galway.

This place definitely has some pros and cons.
On the positive side is the location. It’s a convenient walk to city center and is just on the edge of everything to do in the city.
With that said, there were a number of cons. First, the interior does not look like the pictures, as noted in other reviews. It has significantly more wear and tear and there is a lot more furniture jammed in. Second, the building clearly has some water damage. The ceiling was stained, peeling in places and drywall was missing. While it looked like they were in the process of fixing this, it would have been nice if it were discolored. Finally, it is a HUGE stretch to say that this apartment is for 15 people (the size of our group). With this amount, there was no place for luggage and multiple cots were needed. This made it difficult to navigate and in one case made it impossible to close the bedroom door. On that note, none of the doors close properly (including the bathroom) which made traveling with a group a bit awkward.
Overall, not thrilled with the experience. I wouldn’t return but it could be a great spot for a group of 10 or less with some additional repairs and touchups.

This Galway city apartment was just right for our family. We are walkers, so we could indeed walk to Eyre Square, City Centre, and the Spanish Arch. Yet it was convenient to get to the Cliffs of Moher, Connemara, and activities for the kids in Moycullen and Loughrea.
The set up was great, with 2 bedroom sections with doors that could separate the sleeping sections from the living area. This was helpful for different sleeping schedules.
Check in was easy and Elisa was very responsive and accommodating.
Coffee shop and pub just doors away were great.
Construction was going on during our stay, but the skylights installed will provide great light for one of the bedroom sections.
The two bathrooms were essential for our family of eleven!
Nice to have coffee, drinks, and snacks when we arrived. Very thoughtful.
I’d highly recommend this property!

We are a family of walkers, so this was a great location for us. We could walk to Eyre Square and City Centre pretty easily.
The property was clean (some construction going on while we were there, but we adapted) and nicely decorated. Elisa was very flexible and responsive about check in.

We had a nice stay. It was hot & they brought over a fan which cooled down the apt. The one shower was small & we laughed because my pregnant niece couldn’t use that one! We all liked Galway & wished we had booked for a longer visit!

This property looks nothing like the online pictures, and not in a good way. It’s petty run down. The back 2 rooms and bathroom look like a sketchy addition, with no windows. The handle came right off 1 of the 2 showers, leaving our party of 12 with 1 working shower.
The location was convenient to the Square, and it fit our family, but it was not a comfortable stay. There was little airflow, so we had to leave the windows open on the street side all night, with traffic noise and people talking outside most of the night.
Although the bedding and towels were clean, the utensils were not, the dishwasher was full of someone else’s dishes, and there was paint flaking and cracks in walls and tile.

This property allowed easy access to all that Galway had to offer and I would recommend to any of my friends.

Very easy to complete the booking. The property is listed for 15 people but I think it is a little small and there would be a problem for that amount of people in the kitchen/living area. Brilliant location.

This is a perfectly placed unit for checking out Galway - walking distance to everywhere you want to go. The check in process was lovely, Lisa was helpful, friendly and gave us all the info we needed.
The unit was clean. If you’re not used to living in a city with noise, you may want to bring some ear plugs or download a white noise app for the front bedrooms as there is some noise from the street (the only downfall of having such a great central location). However it sounds like there are plans to install new windows to isolate the noise so that will help all future stays.
We would definitely stay here again!

This property was falsely advertised. The photos did not depict the actual furnishings. The actual furnishings were much older than in the photos. There were lights out, dryer didn’t work, food left in oven from previous renter., the heater in a bedroom didn’t work, the beds were TERRIBLE. The shower ran hot and cold. The floor in one of the bathroom was so slick, someone fell.VERY DISAPPOINTED in this property. The host said she would send someone over to look at the condo but she never did.
SO upset about this situation. Will report this falsely advertised property that I spent a lot of money on to the BBB.

This property is in a good location that allowed for an easy hike to most areas. It was adequate for our needs but in need of some updating. Front rooms tended to be loud in the evening..
4.0 / 10.0
Honestly this place did not live up to our expectations. It was falsely advertised. There were hardly any outlets in the whole place. One of the showers did not have hot water and the other shower had no door or shower curtain and the water temperature would go from cold to hot within seconds and would not even out. The location is about a 10 minute walk to the city center, which is not very far but still not as close as we thought from the listing. It was kind of confusing to figure out how to enter the apartment and to get a hold of someone as well. The kitchen did not have the proper pots and pans to cook breakfast and the washer/dryer took a very long time to complete a cycle. If you don't care about the living conditions, this would be a decent place to stay with young friends. It was below our expectations for a family vacation with 9 people.

gute Lage, schöne Wohnküche, netter Kontakt zum Vermieter
Schlafzimmer sehr klein, teilweise ohne Schrank und ohne Ablagemöglichkeit keine Möglichkeit den Koffer auszupacken, Schränke voll mit Wäsche.
Deckenlampe im Bad schon länger defekt
Schöne Wohnküche, gut ausgestattet, Platz für 6 Personen,
es gibt 5 Schlafzimmer, aber meistens nur 140 er Betten, deshalb mit Freunden lieber 1 Schlafzimmer pro Person buchen, für 10 Personen wäre die Wohnung auch zu klein. Leider Möbel schon sehr abgewohnt, da einige Urlauber wahrscheinlich gleich auf der Arbeitsplatte schneiden ohne ein Brett zu benutzen, das ist schade. 2 Pubs gleich in der Nähe, ansonsten 10 min zu Fuß in die Stadt. Parken vor der Tür bis 18:00 h 2,-€ pro Stunde.

Fantastic location, great for a group
We had a fantastic stay in Galway. We travelled to Galway with a group of 8, ranging in age from 16-50. The apartment was exactly what we were expecting. It was very clean, and the beds were all very comfortable. Walking into town was very easy. Our group was able to split up and very easily meet back up at the apartment. Having a place to play games together at the end of the day was lovely. Check in and check out were very easy, and communication was great before checkin. We would definitely rent this apartment again if we ever return to Galway!

The apartment was spacious and clean. Best of all was its location, we walked everywhere. One of the group left their phone behind and the host kindly retrieved it safely. Would highly recommend.
