Clean, and while compact provided everything that we needed for a very enjoyable stay in Galway. We were away from the street so had no issue with noise or anything. Have recommended to friends.

The location is EXCELLENT, right in Quay center where all the pubs and shops are. Everything in is walking distance. About a 5 min walk to the Spanish Arc. The front desk staff were friendly and helpful with questions. The room was very clean. The only downside was that the bed was quite uncomfortable… but honestly, we only stayed a night and otherwise this spot was perfect.

An ideal location for a social weekend in Galway. Everything is within walking distance & you are amongst the hustle & bustle, looking out over The Quays Bar, yet the room itself was not noisy (very good windows). The room was lovely and clean & the staff were very friendly. I would definitely stay here again.

Found this place on Instagram and it turned out to be the best hotel I could’ve picked. It was in the perfect location, so many things all around it, so close to the Christmas festival in the train station. Really enjoyed staying the night here. 10/10 recommend for solo travelers.

Great location on Quay Street with the Spanish Arch parking garage next door (discounted rate of 12€/day.) No lift so if handicapped be sure to request something on 1st floor. There are oodles of pubs, fish & chip joints, and boutiques right out the front door. Nice showers with plenty of warm water and pressure. Great value.

The room was snug, cozy, new and clean. The location had us smack in the middle of Quay St - festive & convenient! The challenge was the late night music and the incessant bass beat. We asked to move for our 2nd night and the very helpful, friendly front desk obliged. Much quieter the 2nd night.

Great location in Galway and close to everything you need! Despite the loud noises late at night due to being so close to a pub this was fine if you are aware before you book and do your research and in the end the noise wasn't as bad as we first thought it would be so overall a great trip and great hotel! Would stay again
