    Hey, dont really know of any self catering places in town, you would prob be better off with a hotel they've gone very reasonable now, garveys hotel have very good rates with a great atmosphere in the downstairs bar and is right in the centre if eyre square!!
    Worth a look, at least a place like this rules out taxi fairs as you are 1 min from everything!! ;)

    Unlikely you'd get 2 nights only in July, self catering ,most places tend to be for a week at least in high season.

    Citypoint apartments are self catering and are rented by the night but it's around 130 per night, so not really cheaper than hotel.

    For an extra ternner a night you can stay in Jurys which has one of the best locations in town.

    What weekend are you thinking? The first week, we've got a bit of a boat race, apparently it's kinda popular so accommodation might be full or expensive.

    The third and fourth weeks, we've got an international arts festival. Apparently not quite such a big deal as the boats-whats-it, but still lots of people come here.

    Are ye dead set on Galway and July?
