"The staff were very kind and helpful. We arrived at 8 am after an overnight flight expecting to drop our bags off and check in at 3 pm, but the staff were able to find us a room right away. The hotel is in an ideal location, right in the heart of Galway. Everything is within walking distance and the train station is next door. You can't pick a better spot to stay!"
