Staff and service were great. Location did not exactly provide for a convenient “easy to get around town” and explore, which meant driving everywhere. Bed was uncomfortable and bathroom’s exhaust fan worked poorly as we had to leave door open when showering and wait a few minutes after so the condensation could evaporate

Great staff and close to transit for downtown Galway. They have renovated rooms on the first floor that they post on their website, but most of the rooms are outdated and not the renovated, new rooms pictured. You would have to pay a premium for those rooms. It felt a little dishonest, and that’s why I give it 3/5 stars. We did experience a plumbing issue, and we were able to be accommodated. They were quick to help and very attentive.

Surprising Contrast

Lobby area is beautiful. Looks to be newly remodeled, very clean, and well lit. The rooms however, are a stark contrast. Dark, flat/uncomfortable pillows, and rather dated rooms. Fine for a one night crash, like our group did, but not sure I'd want to stay much longer.
