Großes Hotel mit schlechtem Preis-Leistungs Verhältnis
Pros:

Das Hotel liegt direkt am Strand, die Innenstadt ist gut per Bus zu erreichen, ausreichend Parkplätze (5€ pro Tag).

Cons:

Durchschnittliches Frühstück. Pool nur mit Badekappe (2,50 € direkt vor Ort in bar zu zahlen) zu nutzen.

Bel hôtel
Pros:

Bel emplacement proche de la mer, lits confortables, grande chambre.

Cons:

Présence de mites vestimentaires dans la chambre et moisissures dans la salle de bain, mériterait un nettoyage un peu plus conséquent. L’emplacement est joli mais un peu loin de Galway sans voiture, il n’y a pas grand chose à faire à Salt Hill.

Overall great stay
Pros:

Large hotel with excellent staff and facilities. The 25 m swimming pool and sauna are amazing, spacious rooms with a view of the ocean and ample parking on site.

Cons:

The rooms (in particular) on the first floor can be quite noisy, many families with small children during the summer holiday period and the rooms located above the hotel bar are directly affected by loud music until late.

Pros:

Location was good,
Staff friendly, helpful and professional

Cons:

I couldnt ring reception from my room,
I asked for a sea view, it was partially blocked by an other apartment block, I brought my partner from Belfast who travelled a long distance to have a sea view so he could unwind and relax but he was a bit disappointed, the kitchen closed at 9pm eventhough its peak tourist season, it should have shift staff like in other european cities so people can dine later and spend more , so small issues that could be improved

Pros:

Tutto abbastanza buono nulla di speciale

Cons:

Con quegli spazi chiedere 5’euro per il parcheggio è ridicolo.
Dalla stanza si sente la tv della stanza accanto = zero insonorizzazione
