    The shower did not have working hot water in our room, and the bed could have been a bit softer, but everything else was fabulous.

    The room was very clean, cosy and warm and the place was very close to eyre square - within a 10 minute walk. There was free wifi and a television. We felt very safe and enjoyed our stay in Galway.

    Once I got the electric radiator, all was nice.

    I came to work at the university. I stayed for one night. The small room became an excellent shelter from the cold and rain outside once I got an electric radiator to heat up the room. It was minimal but great and very close to the university - less than 10 minutes walk. Also, the receptionist was very kind.

    Cute, Quiet Place in a Convenient Location

    • Solo traveller

    • Stayed 2 nights

    I wasn't expecting my room to be cleaned during my stay, and there was no sign to put on the doorknob to refuse service. It was just an expectation of privacy since Covid changed norms. The check in was a little awkward.

    The location was a short walk from town, on a quiet street. The room was nice, clean and comfortable.

    Very clean. Excellent location. Office/check-in staff (at the bed and breakfast next door) and the housekeeping staff are very friendly and helpful. Little details in the room - like tea kettle with tea/coffee, biscuits, sweet butterscotch candies, and a small refrigerator - were perfect. Shower was much bigger than I expected! Located away from the noisy city centre, but only 5-6 minutes walking to the centre.

    A Sweet Stay at a Typical Galway House
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveller
    • Single Room with Bathroom
    • Stayed 3 nights

    Spending 3 nights in a typical Galway house made me feel like staying at somebody's home. Although the room was quite small, it had all the amenities that made my stay comfortable, e.g. a fridge, a hair-dryer, a TV, and a kettle to prepare coffee or tea. The cleanliness was impeccable and the bed was really comfortable. In addition, getting to the city centre with its pedestrian zone takes only a 10-minute walk.

    We didn't feel comfortable with bathroom window as there was no blind or curtains on it and when light was switched on < no privacy.

    It was quiet and area felt safe. Quite a few choices of eateries ten minutes walk away. Close to buses and hop on hop off bus was very enjoyable and punctual . People in Galway are very friendly and ready to help when you needed directions.

    There is no breakfast, which is a bit misleading as this is advertised as a bed and breakfast. Rooms are quiet, opening a window on the road side is a bit noisy. Went end of July, weather was a bit warmer, so was the room, if you didn’t want to traffic noise while opening the window, there is a plug in fan.

    The accommodation was walking distance from the city centre. Straight forward service, was shown my room, if any questions, the office is next door. Room was as expected, clean single size room, with en-suite bathroom and shower, towels included. There was a small fridge, instant coffee/ tea bags, mini water kettle and hairdryer available. Plug in fan available. The accommodation seemed newly renovated.
