My stay with Arun was fantastic. The room was clean and nice. It was easy to use public transport.
Arun is open heart and honest person.
I will stay with him my next visit. And if you look for a good place choose Arun.July 2019
Arun was a really nice guy. Chatting with him at night was really a good experience. The room was big enough for me to use alone and also kitchen, bathroom was all in good shape as well. If you are planning to visit Galway, I would definitely reccommend Arun's.

Arun is a kind and accommodating host, very friendly and cheerful. The house is comfortable and in a nice part of Galway, with quick access by bus to the town center. I would happily stay here again the next time I'm in the area.

Simple room and shared bathroom at 5 min from Galway city center. we comfortably stayed in three persons in the room. Nice place without problem for parking. The host is a great person, available for any suggestion. Very good place where to stay and good balance quality/price.

It was a great experience.
I had a nice time and chat with Arun.
The room and everything is perfect as described.July 2018
We were road tripping around Ireland and we had already planned to stay with Arun in Galway. He sent through all the information days before our arrival and was very accomodating when we didn't arrive until very late. His place is lovely, warm, homely and Arun is a great person to have as your host. Arun even let us stay an extra night at very late notice and was very helpful with local information. We can't wait to stay with him again next time :)
