Greeted by host and showed around the tips & tricks of apartment and neighborhood. The small townhouse complex faces the road but the promenade/beach is just behind 2 min walk (peek of the sea from bedroom windows) Clean, comfortable, roomy bedrooms with wardrobes, end tables. Plenty of towels and 2 nice showers, just pay attention to instructions for water heater if you have a group that may want hot showers different times of day. We did not cook much but kitchen had essentials and nice sized fridge. Convenience shop and nice small grocery market with fresh breads and deli, dairy essentials right across the road, as well as bus stop. 5 minute walk to Salthill village restaurants, off license, pubs. You could walk to city center (20min) but we often took bus in 2, taxi back late in evening 8-10. We were originally going to be 5 adults staying, wound up being 3-but this was still a very reasonable option for a roomy apartment away from the noise and busy-ness of city center, even without a car! Thanks Sean for a great stay at Grattan House.Post script: 2flights of stairs up to apartment, and unit also has interior stairs up to one of the en-suite bedrooms. (Not a problem for us, just FYI)

All amenities beside house. 2 adults and 4 children stayed with plenty of space. Great freshly made pastries and bread in shop opposite house. Restaurants and pubs 5 minutes walk.

Sean was very helpful. Everything was very clean.

Sean, The host was very friendly and accommodating. But the property is older than anticipated and the furniture smelled of cat urine. A deep cleaning and new furniture would improve the quality of the townhouse. The bedding was old and new pillows would be a nice addition. The location was very good and a nice walking distance to the waterfront, shopping, pubs, restaurants, casinos and cathedrals. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.
