Busy college town with a vibrant downtown and lots of night life. Anyone who hasn't visited the nearby Cliffs of Moher definitely needs to.

Beautiful city with great nightlife though it was quite busy even in mid-week. We used it as a way to explore the local area and found it a decent home base however traffic was usually a factor in our day trips.

Very different vibe then Dublin. Lots of pubs/outside patios to have a Guinness.
