Great location, close to city centre. Super easy kiosk check-in. Only downside to the accommodation was the lack of hot water in the shower, otherwise thought this was great.

The room was cute and clean with a coffee maker and tv. We didn't see any staff while we were there and the check in is self check in but it all went smoothly. The area around is a bit quiet but is very close to the main areas so you just need to walk a minute or two to find something!

Room was fine albeit very small and only good for short stays. No place to put your suitcase. check in easy. Paper thin walls though and could hear people banging about coming back drunk at 4:00 am. Not their fault but incredibly loud outside as we were there for Friday and Saturday night. Couldn’t sleep due to noise. Good location for getting to Latin quarter and shopping but with that comes noise. We were there for two nights and no one cleaned the room.

Rooms are small which is expected. Stayed 3 nights, never made the beds even once. Never refilled the coffee pods or cleaned the coffee cups. No shelf in shower to put toiletries. No luggage rack.

Pretty good
It's a great place. Very clean and quiet. Couldn't get any channels on the TV. Had to use my own Netflix LogIn to use it. The pillows were like hard, round logs. We had to go buy other pillows. Otherwise, everything was great.

Easy to find, and there are a couple of car parks very close to choose from (the one directly opposite appears to be at the higher end of the prices for Galway though). Check in was easy, via a screen. The rooms and hotel were clean and well kept, and there's a vending machine upstairs. The rooms looked and felt quite newly furnished/decorated. There was a fan provided, appreciated as the room was very warm (August), there's no air con. Our room faced the front of the building, and although you could open the windows, it was very very noisy from the pub across the street. On Friday the music and karaoke went on until 1am, and was very loud even with the windows shut (which was uncomfortable because it was so warm). On Saturday it was quieter, but the location is still on a main road out of the city, near some nightclubs, so there were rowdy people outside until about 3am. The rooms are clean and small, without anywhere to actually really PUT things except the floor, which was frustrating. It wasn't even possible to put a washbag in the bathroom as there isn't a shelf/space on the sink to do so. There's a coffee machine which took up half the small table space in the room, but no glasses for use for water. There are a few hangers provided for shirts, but nowhere to put your suitcase. The plug sockets are behind the bedside tables, so you have to actually move the table out of the way to use them. The bed was comfy, and the water pressure for the shower is great.

Convenient spot in the heart of Galway. My suggestion for improvement is to clearly post the explicit steps to get internet working and also how to work the shower- life is too short for these frustrations.

There was no front desk staff but the set up to get your key and into the building is seamless. Very clean, beds were super comfortable and quiet. I would highly recommend staying here. Walking distance to everything that you need!

Place was clean and in walking distance to the city centre. Temperature outside was 15 degrees but room was really really warm and you were unable to control the heat. When contacting the hotel they told us to turn on the fans and open the window however it was uncomfortably hot and stuffy in the room.
