This is a standard 3 star not a 4 star
Pros:

Staff were good we had a quick pizza which was very good

Cons:

The hotel has no ac so rooms were very warm. the room had no amenities i.e shower cap face cloth glass or something to put your toothbrush in. The lighting in the room wasnt great. At a price of 200 euro room only it is not good value I would not consider this a 4 star more of a standard 3 star.

Pros:

Great space, very family friendly

Pleasant staff, good facilities and convenient location
Pros:

Staff were helpful and cheery. It was a good location as a base for exploring Galway. The hotel is in a quiet residential area and there was no traffic noise. The room was big and clean. The gym and spa facilities were well-equipped. The garden and grounds were well-kept. Decent breakfast.

Cons:

Our room and communal areas were very warm. It was the middle of a heatwave, but there must be little or minimal air conditioning.

It would have been good to have a room safe and fridge.

Pros:

It was last minute booking for overprice, unfortunately. The hotel has a huge parking space, so it was comfortable to leave our car without spending time for parking in the town. There is a pub in the same building, but we came too late to have a dinner there. The room was big and clean, unfortunately with no conditioner, that in +28 was a problem. The personal was very welcoming and tried to make our stay comfortable.

Pros:

We stayed for 2 nights, and breakfast was really poor. Simply not enough food, nor basic food. This is a 4-star hotel, not 2. Please review the breakfast choices. (((((( The cost of the same is €15 per person

Cons:

Another note: the reception said the hotel is "environmentally friendly," so no cleaning is needed. I really don't understand the concept of the same. Be honest, say you do save on the cleaning staff.
