Wonderful

While the room was small, it was clean and comfortable. It is located on a busy, pedestrian only street with a lot of restaurants, pubs, and shops. You could hear the noise from the street through the window, but I enjoyed hearing the festivities. If you want a very quiet location, this may not be the place for you.
Excellent all around! Everything clean. Smooth and easy check in even though we were early. Incredible location. Comfy bed. Only thing was the room was puny, but not the end of the world given all the other pros!
Wish I had a better review. The location is great and the hotel itself was very nice. The whole street is closed off to cars so very walkable. The car park was less than a 5 minute flat walk. There was an excellent coffee shop with breakfast items just next to it for an easy take away before heading back on the road. We got the bunk room for the extra space. Front desk staff was welcoming and helpful. The layout of the rooms is quirky. Because of the location, we expected it to be noisy. The pubs and foot traffic quieted at around 2am. Ear plugs provided by the hotel were appreciated. The beds were comfy. Room got warm and we couldn’t figure out how to regulate. Because of the street noise we dared not to open the window. Most unfortunate was the construction crew that got started at the crack of dawn that made us give up any hope of sleeping in.
Great location, its in the heart of everything. Hotel was very clean and the staff wonderful. Downside is there is a lot of street noise if your room is on that side. Avoid room #7 at all cost, its directly over the entrance door and street noise, doublewhammy. Ear pugs help.
Location was amazing. So many restaurants and shopping at your doorstep. The river with a scenic path just steps away. it was the smallest room we stayed in during our 3 weeks of travel. Only one person has room to get dressed at a time. Luggage has to go under bed in order to have room to walk. However, worth it for location if staying a few nights.
It was a really cool place with modern amenities as far as many plug outlets, bath and shower supplies. It was a little small for our liking but that is was they offer! It is right in there by all the action. Staff was very helpful.
Wonderful location, right in the middle of active and fun Galway. The third floor was completely quiet in spite of the merriment and music on the nearby streets. It's well run and well taken care of, and though the rooms are quite small, they're cozy and make the most of the limited space. No elevator, though, just stairs, so best choice for the able-bodied and energetic.
A great location and wonderful staff, but.. the snug rooms are just that. Wee!! Too small for 2 ppl. Our room was swapped and suited us but be aware. Galway was fabulous so made up for the surprise of tiny accommodation.
The woman at the front desk was amazing. Our room was on the front of the hotel. When we checked in, we asked if it would be quiet because the street was crazy. The man at the front desk said the windows were triple pained. We were directly across from the Quay and didn't sleep all night. The woman moved us to a great room, gave us advice about where to eat and what to do.
It's right in the heart of where you'd want to be in Galway. The 54 sq ft room we had was postgraduate for sleeping and getting clean. The shower was great! The staff was more than helpful with suggestions for dining or sightseeing. They really were terrific.
