Hospitality severely lacking. As a service industry person, I usually have a great repartee with fellow service people, and this was a shockingly cold and condescending reception. Out of the dozen hotels, resorts, and castles we stayed in throughout Ireland this was the only rotten apple

The hotel was nice and clean. The room was large for Europe. It’s outside of Galway city center so you do need a car or taxi to get to the sight. Hotel staff were wonderful and accommodating. Dinner in the hotel restaurant was above average for what you typically think of. The only problem we had was that the toilet in our room was so weak you had to flush over and over and over.

The staff here were great as they helped sort out an initial problem with our room. Overall though we were not too impressed by the hotel itself. The room felt dark, a bit damp and had no ability to control the temperature in the room and had no air circulation other than opening the window. It was clean enough just felt like some detailed cleaning doesnt really happen. The location is kind of odd, would be fine if your driving or dont mind walking. We didn't mind walking, but that is something to consider since its about 25 minutes into the central part of Galway. The breakfast was wonderful!

The bar was limited and the staff was rude and unable to make simple drinks like an Old Fashioned - restaurant manager in the evening was equally as rude. Breakfast was subpar at best - eggs were over cooked and the butter/oil used tasted old and burnt.
