Town View Apartment, Tom Barry House, Clifden

Having read some other reviews of this place we might feel that some of them are justified (flights of stairs to apartments, location above a betting office, etc) but these are easily remedied by the comforts and flexibility offered by the very spacious accommodation. We did have a plumbing issue on the first day but to be fair to Kevin, when we reported it by text, he called back promptly and when we got back later that afternoon it had been fully resolved. Other small issues such as a slightly faulty toaster and slightly under-equipped kitchen arose as the week went on but on the grand scale the rooms are tastefully decorated, there is plenty of space and most of the things you would need for a stay of a week or so are there. We were never inconvenienced by any of the small matters that arose. The location above the betting office never created a problem and the parking, whilst on the road, was always easily available and if you are going out during the day (and I question why you wouldn't, if you're visiting Connemara!) then you are only having to pay for an hour or so towards the end of the afternoon, we never spent more than 2 Euro each day on parking. We feel that the apartments represent good value for money and their location makes exploration of a lovely little town very easy and enjoyable. We would definitely consider a return trip.
