Great room and we enjoyed both the cafe and tea/coffee anytime. Convenient location for exploring Galway. Parking is not always available, and street parking may be equivalent of a couple blocks away, so drivers should be prepared not to have the car near. We had a nice time here!

No frills
First time staying at a hostel. Very clean. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Even let me use their personal phone when mine couldn't make a local call. No frills, but that's expected. Very good breakfast offering. Bed was hard, but sleep-able.

Fun and funky vibe. Helpful staff. Walkable in 10-15 minutes to great eatery options in either direction. Walk to town center to eat was enjoyable, but you’ll need a reservation to go where you wish in the high season.
