It was exactly what I was looking for, right in the heart of the town and close to everything. Even though the city was lively, my room was very quiet thanks to excellent soundproofing. The front desk staff were friendly, welcoming and very helpful with my requests.

Nice room and the staff was wonderful. Location was not fantastic as our room is right over a pub that played loud music very late into the morning, not the hotel’s fault, but if I had realized how loud the location of our room would be, I probably would’ve opted to stay elsewhere. Overall, minus sleep, it was a great spot.

A great little micro hotel in the heart of the pub scene in Galway City. Everything was very clean. There were few amenities but for the price of the room and the location we were happy. It does get noisy in the night due to the location, but we packed ear plugs so we did not mind.
