It was okay. We got the King Superior room with skylights thinking we would also have windows for a view. Room for two nights was over $600. No windows, just two small skylights. Our friend got a much cheaper room and had a harbour view. Bed was comfortable. Staff were nice. Shower flooded every time it was used. I just feel like this place was insanely overpriced for a basic hotel. Also, cleaning staff were really loud in the mornings and started earl so that was off putting.

We loved the breakfast buffet- great variety of food and all super tasty! We found the rooms fair sized, but the area felt quite loud with the street beside, and the walls between rooms were VERY thin- we could hear our neighbors watching TV and people shutting doors, and found it hard to sleep because of it. We had a cleaning staff knock and immediately enter our room our first day there while we were in the middle of changing, which was unsettling and made us feel uncomfortable about leaving valuables in the room. No token of apology or any sort of action beyond a verbal apology was offered by the front desk staff. We enjoyed our time in Galway but will definitely stay elsewhere in the future!
