Highly recommend!! Fantastic staff- great location. Excellent place for a comfortable convenient stay in Galway. I stayed there four days (midweek) for vacation. The staff was exceptionally friendly and accommodating. I was blown away by their hospitality! I was in a newly renovated room, which was very clean and comfortable. There’s a little traffic noise, but they have good windows that block it out, and the streets were pretty quiet at night. The location Cannot be Beat!! It is a short 10 minute walk to the heart of the music/ pub scene in the Latin quarter. It’s only a three minute walk from the train station and a one minute walk from the bus terminal. Very close to where most of the day tours leave from. As a solo, female traveler, I felt totally safe walking at all hours. Very nice hotel- I thought it was a great value. Nice cafe attached to the hotel in addition to the restaurant and bar.

Perfect place to stay while visiting Galway's Christmas markets. It was walking distance to ask the Great stuff, and the parking was convenient.
