Inexpensive lodging in Galway. I did not have access to microwave nor refrigerator. Location has a laundromat but you have to purchase large sized bottles of detergent. There is a free shuttle to town but it stops running at 730pm. Most restaurants close by stop serving food after 9 PM. I arrived late and there was no shuttle and no food close by. Room was comfortable. Plenty of electric sockets. No television. I felt safe. Google maps directions to reception are wrong. It tells you to turn right when it should be turn left. Lovely time there. It's an excellent location to do lots of activities.
On a "flying" summer trip around Ireland, any "port-in-a-storm" is welcome. This was a bit rustic for my wife's liking, but it was clean and more than adequate. Excellent if fending for yourself as far as food and beverage are concerned.
We were there to visit the campus because my son is in his final year in high school. It is a good choice if your child will be living on the campus so they get an idea of what it will be like. If you are looking for the "hotel" experience rhis is probably not the best place.
simple rooms, but excellent prices, and the free shuttle into Galway, just makes it an even better value,
When I saw "no frills," I went in with low expectations. They were met. I booked a room for a single bed and ended up with a full size bed, so that was a nice surprise. All I needed was internet access and a place to sleep, and I got both, so I was completely fine. However, if you're looking for something with amenities or something close to the pubs, this is not it.
The experience was great. Corrib Village is right next to the University and it has a complementary shuttle that runs into Downtown Galway several times each day. The rooms are about what you might expect for student housing, but they are clean and the staff brings new linens and towels every day. They were also very friendly and tolerant of stupid foreigner questions. Great value!
