Gorgeous property in a perfect location! We holiday in Clifden every summer, but have never had a better apartment than Robin's Nest. Truly- spacious, clean, modern, comfortable. The kitchen is class with coffee, spices, etc, all of the amenities you need. The location is perfect to walk the town and enjoy, plus it's in an ideal spot where you can get out of town quickly by car any direction you want to go for the beaches and sights of Connemara. Very convenient. Yvonne answered immediately to questions and checked in to see if we needed anything. I would definitely recommend and hope we get our hands on it again next summer!

Beautiful apartment, great location

I liked the convenience and proximity to town. Short walking distance to activities during the festival. Secure parking in the building is definitely a plus. Apartment had everything we needed for an enjoyable stay. Check-in and check-out were very efficient as well. Can’t think of anything that could be improved.

The property was very clean and well appointed. The host was very responsive and increased the heat for us (you cannot change the temperature settings on your own). The check in process is completed using a third party app, not in the VRBO app. I don’t like this and reading the instructions were not that always in this app which required me to hit next to go through the instructions. I prefer just reading them in the app or via a message.

Robins Nest was pretty and clean. Nice views of downtown Clifden. It's right in the heart of downtown which makes it convenient for walking around this lovely town. The one drawback is it sits on a busy traffic corner so car noise and the clock chiming every hour could be disturbing if you are a light sleeper. All in all it is a well kept place with private covered parking, which comes in handy with the frequent rain. There was some confusion with directions on check out and how to work the hot water boost but we figured it out and any questions I asked were answers within an hour.

We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed the property’s cleanliness, lovely views, and convenient location right in the heart of Clifden, it really is a great spot for exploring the town on foot.
