Todo perfecto
Pros:

Muy buena ubicación, a pesar de que Galway es pequeño. La chica que limpiaba nos permitió dejar nuestras mochilas antes del check in y fue muy amable. Cama, instalaciones y limpieza 10/10.

Cons:

No nos molestó a nosotros pero, si te molesta el ruido, debes saber que hay una fiesta muy popular al lado y se escucha por la noche. El desagüe de la ducha estaba un poco tapado, casi se rebalsaba al ser una ducha bajita.
