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).

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 with a view
Our first time in Galway, so we appreciated this location. A 15 minute walk to the Latin Quarter, plus the opportunity to walk along the shore every day. It was even nice to watch the wind and rain when in the unit!

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!

Wonderful location
Beautiful view, comfortable beds, spacious rooms, and close to restaurants. The walking path was so lovely nearby, and Morton’s grocery had incredible bread and pastries. Our only disappointment lay with the spare cooking tools. It was great to have a washer and dryer. We would come back again.

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 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.

From initial query until final key turnover, Sean was wonderful, responsive and caring. Pictures can’t capture the amazing view of Galway Bay. Location in Salthill perfect for both peace and quiet and short walk to town. Kitchen especially convenient for family/kids. A true gem!

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.

My overall opinion is that my stay here really was what I was looking for and hoped it would be.
Most important, I would definitely stay here again...actually, I would live here if I could!!! The view is obviously great and the reasonably close walk of about 30 minutes to Galway City is convenient. The building and unit were clean and very well maintained and the owners were responsive to questions I had. I was there in October of the year and it was very quiet in the building.

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 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.

Location Location Location, with a view
We loved staying in Salt Hill, and the Arus Grattan was perfect for us. A quiet location between Galway and downtown Salt Hill. The view of the bay was spectacular from the patio and the dining area. Apartment would work for two couples or a family. We just reheated food from a close by great specialty food market, but I believe the kitchen had everything you could want. Only slight negative was the hot water was not plentiful. We walked into Galway, even with our bags. Cabs also available. Sean was very helpful and we would definitely stay here again.

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.
