ES406881La casa era fantastica , realmente en las fotos parecía más pequeña . Todo funcionaba pefectamente , absolutamente super limpio , en un barrio tranquilo con unos vecinos encantadores. Los antitriones nos dejaron información y algunas cosas necesarias y otras como regalo de bienvenida . Galway es un sitio estupendo al igual que Irlanda , sobre todo por sus habitantes . La casa es muy confortable y tranquila.
