Family trip to Ireland

Two of my daughters and their husbands and families stayed here while we visited Galway. They found the apartment to be lovely with everything they needed. The separate floors added some privacy for each family and they enjoyed the rooftop deck. Others stayed on Dock Road and we all found this to be a great location

Disliked: Cleanliness
Overall, this place is almost great, but several issues affected our stay.Check-In: Process was overly complicated w/ multiple codes for garage, pedestrian entrance, building, & unit. Instructions were clear, but system could be simplified.Cleanliness & Smell: On arrival, strong sewer smell hit us—tracked it to hallway bathroom w/ visible mildew. Definitely impacted the experience.Laundry (W/D): A key reason we booked was to do laundry mid-trip. W/D was small (expected), but wash cycle took over an hr & dryer didn’t dry anything—then stopped working. Left w/ wet & dirty clothes for rest of trip. Very disappointing.Noise/View: Location is great for walking to Latin Quarter, restaurants, etc., & views of city/water are nice. However, unit faces an industrial dock w/ a large metal pile. That we could live with—but not the loud early-morning work (5–7am) w/ alarms, scraping, & dumping. It woke us up both mornings.Hot Water: Another issue was inconsistent hot water. First 2 ppl to shower had cold water, despite no usage prior. Host provided reset instructions, but still frustrating.Summary: Great location & potential, but smell, W/D, noise, & hot water made it hard to fully enjoy. Wouldn’t book again unless improvements are made.

Pros: location, really nicely appointed apartment walkable to town center. Pretty views especially at night.Cons: challenging to deal with Property management company. Unnecessarily stern and inefficient check in instructions. No hot water after first person took a shower (you are warned at check in but this seems ridiculous for a 3 BR apartment). Vague persistent sewage smell in the bathrooms.
