Margaret was an amazing host! She was flexible and generous, the accommodations were clean and very home-y. Her place is a five minute walk to the shops of Salthill and the promenade, and an easy 30 minute or so walk into Galway city centre. She even offered to drive me into town on a rainy morning. I felt safe and looked out for during my three-night stay! This is the perfect home base for a trip to Galway.

What a lovely B&B. We stayed two nights in Galway and this was the perfect location. Only about a 20 minute walk in to town, and the lovely host offered a ride in because she was heading that way and didn't want us to have to drive (I expressed my nerves about driving in the city!) Would definitely recommend to anyone staying in Galway.
Great B&B located in a quiet neighborhood. Clean and confortable rooms. I've been there two weeks and I really felt like at home. Margaret was a wonderful host, always friendly and helpful. Irish and continental breakfast were plentiful and delicious. Everything was wonderful.
