Gorgeous view and location

This flat had a lovely view of the sea. The location was perfect - close to the seaside promenade, several restaurants, and a wonderful grocer. Sean was quite responsive to any needs. We would certainly stay here again.

Great stay in an excellent location

We spent three nights here and really enjoyed our time. The apartment was clean and checking in and out was a breeze. The location is walkable to a lot of restaurants and is just a short walk to the Latin Quarter. There is also a small Tesco just up the street. But the killer feature of this place is the amazing view out across Galway Bay. Pictures don’t do it justice, it is spectacular. Thanks for a great stay!

Truly outstanding attention

As locations in Galway go, this is excellent and my first choice whenever I'm back in my home town. The landlord, Sean Treacy, in only ever 5 minutes away as he lives nearby, and tries (and succeeds!) to exceed our requirements in whatever way possible.

Amazing

Absolutely loved this apartment in salthill. Our apartment had a massive balcony overlooking the water…pure bliss having a coffee every morning & evening with such a view. The apartment more than suited our needs with 2 bedrooms both with their own bathrooms and spacious living area, which was very clean. Perfect location in salthill area, few mins walk to local bars, shops, restaurants. Very friendly hosts and looking forward to returning again next year

Great location - comfortable accommodation.

Beautiful view of the ocean from the kitchen and deck. Spacious apartment with everything we needed. Two good sized rooms with comfortable beds and a bathroom for each bedroom. A short walk to town (25mins) through scenic areas. Coffee/breakfast shop right next door was really handy. Sean and his son were really helpful and available to answer any questions. Laundry is very different - not like at home. I couldn't get it to work properly so waited 2hrs for a small load to wash and it never did spin properly or dry so I ended up hanging it in the apartment using the rack provided. It worked out okay - just wasn't what I was expecting. We'd stay there again.

Very enjoyable stay at the excellent location where we have stayed several times before. My only caveat is that we were on the 4th floor for the first time and the Wifi was ineffective there (unlike on the 3rd floor where we have stayed before).

Spacious apartment with wonderful views

Our family of four (14- and 19-year-old children) spent 8 nights in this lovely apartment in June-July 2014 and we would be happy to return. It is a spacious apartment with a spectacular view of Galway Bay. A well maintained clean quiet older apartment with comfortable beds. Checking in and out was no problem. A few more plates and cutlery would have been appreciated for our breakfast needs considering a dishwasher was available. Both that and the washing machine with dryer came in very handy. Beware so you do not hit your head on the shelves above the electrical outlets in the bedrooms, I can assure it hurts...

Lovely stay

We really enjoyed our stay at the apartment, it was clean, comfortable and with a great location and view! The host was very kind and welcoming, however, it was a bit hard to get ahold of him before we arrived (failure to pick up the phone number provided, had to try several times), other than that, perfect!

Great location and lots of room. Cannot beat the view!

It is in perfect location. A 20 minute walk to Galway center, but gives you the quiet and calmness provided by view of beach. Also have convenience of restaurants/shops in Salt Hill. There is plenty of room in the apartments - we spent a month and never felt cramped. Very clean. Not luxurious but gives you everything you need. Owner very responsive if needed.

Great Salthill location!

Great communication and very friendly hosts. Fourth floor apartment has amazing view and a great balcony (as seen in the photo). Good location right on the end of the salthill area, so its quick walk to salthill restaurants and shops as well as to Galway City shopping. Apartment is very clean and tidy. Water heater is a bit interactive, but once you get the hang if it all works well for a morning shower or two. Really enjoyed our stay😀

Great location and view. Meh on the rest.

The location is perfect. Great bars and bakery a block away. Just a 20 minute walk into Galway city core. The furnishings however are very poor. Reminded me of being 20 and staying in dorms. Everyone in my group is over 40 and are acustomed to nice beds. These were untollerable. The couches were just as bad. We like having a comfortable place to explore from and this was not comfortable. Would not stay again on that account.
