"One of the nicer places to stay in Galway. New hotel. New pub in the hotel to look like an old Irish pub. Staff was nice. Room was very nice. 10 minute walk to the main shopping areas. O’Connells pub is like a 6-7 minute walk. Very clean and felt safe."

"This hotel was nice, staff was friendly. It just didn’t match the price tag at all. It was more like a Days Inn, which are fine lower end hotels, then what I expected given the price tag. We stayed at several other higher end hotels that met our expectations, this one just didn’t equate."
