My stay was disappointing. The room was much smaller than expected, and the pictures online were quite deceptive. It didn’t match what was shown in the listing, and it felt cramped and uncomfortable. Definitely not worth the price.

Loads of parking and easy to get to Galway from here. Beds were comfy and it was clean. You could hear everything happening outside the room though, and it wasn't the clearest that you had to check in in the bar.

MauvaiseExpérience de la chambre, numéro huit

Chambre décevante par rapport à la réservation. Nous y étions en couple avec un ado de 14 ans. La chambre est minuscule. Nous n’avons pas pu poser les valises, elles étaient à même le sol, il n’y a pas d’air conditionné, il n’y a pas de télé, il n’y a pas de wi-fi, il n’y a pas de poubelle, et il n’y a pas non plus de bouilloire ou de verre d’eau pour se faire un petit thé ou un petit café le matin. il n’y a pas d’étagères pour poser nos affaires de toilettes et ce n’est pas un lavabo. C’est un lave main. De plus la literie est très inconfortable. Sans air conditionné, le loueur nous a ouvert la fenêtre qui donnait sur une rue très bruyante. Nous n’avons pas dormi de la nuit. Nous étions dans une chambre au premier étage où nous entendions tout ce qui se passait au deuxième étage avec l’eau qui coulait dans les tuyaux dans les cloisons, donc chambre non insonorisée aussi. Nous étions dans la chambre. Numéro huit. Cette chambre n’est pas du tout en photo sur la réservation de Hotels.com. Sinon je ne, je n’aurais pas réservé de plus lorsque nous sommes partis à 9h du matin tout était fermé. Nous n’avons pas su à qui donner la clé nous l’avons laissée dans la chambre.
