    The staff were very friendly. The beds were some of the most comfortable on our whole trip. The room was small but cute, had a mini fridge and nice shower. The kitchen and dining areas were also super cute, well appointed and much appreciated....

    Great location between the main streets of Galway, but also close to the coast and Salthill to see more of the city.
