We had booked two separate nights over a weekend in early July. The keyless access is terrible. The guesthouse did not send the correct date's confirmation code and we could not access. I emailed and it took them 3 hours to get back to us. They refused to refund the nights' accommodation though I had to book another hotel and was very lucky to get a room at the last minute. I'm all for efficiency but not when you cannot address an issue and nobody answers the emergency number!!!

We absolutely loved this property - so convenient to everything in Galway - easy walk to Latin Quarter and Shop Street, Eyre Square and the West End! Only wish there was a small mini-fridge - otherwise a perfect room, beautifully decorated and a fantastic shower with the best water pressure in Ireland!!
The museum - definitely worth a visit
The museum with the Spanish arch to the right
West end - across the street from Galway Bay Tattoo
Fantastic place for organic soaps etc.

Disliked: Amenities
The stay was okay. We were clear that this was a basic hotel stay, but they really mean, basic. The kitchenette is only a kettle and coffee machine with a limited amount of coffee/tea/milk. The building and room were clean with a few minor areas that were dirtier than the norm (beside the toilet, the side table had chips out of the material etc…). There are a few hangers for clothing, no knobs or hooks in the bathroom though. The area is relatively quiet until the middle of the night when the parties are returning home from the pubs. To be expected anywhere! But it felt dingy and dirty and unsafe. We would not have gone out at night to have to return there. It was about a six to eight minute walk to the square or bus/train and other happening areas.

L'hôtel est bien situé, près de la gare de train et de bus a pied. La chambre est belle et neuve, mais une odeur sortait de la salle de bain, c'est malheureux parce que le reste était bien. Pas d'air climatisé, une chance que la fenêtre ouvrait.

Great location and value for Galway.

Check in was easy. Very convenient location just off the busy streets. Easy to walk to main tourist attractions. There was a portable AC unit which was nice but it wasn’t installed properly and which was funny. Still, glad to have it, made us much more comfortable. Bathroom had a funky smell but looked clean so maybe the smell was from outside, coming in through the window.

We had major water problems that ranged from no water at all to super hot water. Called for service. They came, but were not able to correct the problem. We left the next day. No good showers for us.

The location was great and the room was nice. There is no staff on site, so we weren’t able to get help when the wifi was down for the duration of our stay.

Property was clean and very close to the main shopping areas and pubs. However, it is in a very loud area. I do not recommend it for people who have a hard time falling asleep to noise or are easily woken up.
