Winter is coming and there’s a room for rent in Galway that wouldn’t look out of place in King’s Landing itself* *Might be a slight exaggeration

To stand out from the many, many ads on DAFT featuring rooms for rent in towns and cities across Ireland these days you have to be creative and for Game of Thrones fans in the Galway area, one particular ad is worth checking out simply for the amount of references to the show crammed into a few small paragraphs.

A single bedroom that’ll set the occupant back €300 a month, one can’t tell much about the quality of the room from the picture in the ad, but there are a lot of plus points all the same.

Just five minutes from the kingdom of Tesco, an excellent location in the realm and available even to a family as ruthless and widely despised as the Lannisters because they always pay their debts, the dwelling is available for rent for one year, or about the average lifespan of every main character in Westeros.
