Schön, aber winzig.
Pros:

Die Lage des Hotels ist sehr gut. Die Zimmer sind neu, sehr gut schallisoliert und die Betten sind bequem.

Cons:

Ich fand den Zimmerpreis sehr überzogen, dafür, dass die Zimmer zwar schön, aber winzig (6qm) sind. Auch wenn die Zimmer schön sind, kann man sich in ihnen eigentlich nicht aufhalten. Der einzige Aufenthaltsort ist das Bett. Es gibt keine weitere Sitzmöglichkeit oder Platz dafür. Das Hotel hat kein Restaurant und bietet daher auch kein Frühstück an.

Sehr zentral und entsprechend weniger ruhig
Pros:

Das kleine Stadthotel ist in mitten der "Partymile" von Galway. Es ist modern eingerichtet. Die Abwicklung war gut. Parkplätze findet man ein paar Strassen weiter in einem Parkhaus. Für das Frühstück gibt es verschiedene Möglichkeiten in der näheren Umgebung.

Cons:

Unser Zimmer hatte kein Fenster und trotzdem hörte man den Lärm der vielen Strassenbesucher von aussen. Es wird kein Frühstück angeboten.

Busy party area of town.
Pros:

It was clean and spacious.

Cons:

The location was too noisy and there was too much light with no black out curtains and the exit signs. Also not ideal for someone who will struggle carrying a suitcase upstairs. We recommend removing the exit sign on the second floor and adding black out curtains. The mattress was also uncomfortable as I could feel the springs.

Lovely place that's right in the middle of everything! Cozy and snug, as the name suggests.
Pros:

They call it snug and they mean it! We stayed in an adorable little room where the bed took up more space than the entryway, and it was so comfortable. It was our little bird nest for the weekend. We were able to plug our Nintendo Switch into the TV, and the window overlooked the Quays pub with the Galway Girl statue. The pub is quite lively and loud at night, but the room provides complementary earplugs. Would definitely stay again!

Cons:

Definitely bring your own shampoo and conditioner. The Quays pub right across the street gets very loud at night, especially on the weekends. The hotel provides ear plugs, just be prepared for the hubbub and the noise.
