Pros:

Friendly staff, great location, very comfy bed. Free car parking which is great for Galway.

Cons:

Found some large clumps of someone elses hair on the carpet, maybe from a vacuum. For the price I'd have hoped breakfast was included but it wasn't.

We stayed on the second floor and it’s the only room on that floor and it was massive. Very nice updated modern room.
Pros:

It included a restaurant downstairs

Cons:

The check in was not easy. Doors were locked and no one answered the doorbell or the phone. I had to walk into the restaurant to the coast and ask about checking in and the attendant was actually covering for someone on break. A note on the door would’ve been helpful.

A gourmet stay with a lovely room.
Pros:

The room was surprisingly big and very well laid out. The breakfast was fabulous! There was abundant, free parking too and it’s super close to the Dexcom stadium.

Absolutely recommended.
Pros:

The room is very nice and comfy, the pub on groundfloor is a great place to finish a long day after sightseeing. Despite the crowded pub and the main road close by the room is extremely quiet.

Cons:

We would have loved the breakfast included, but it’s available a’la Carter, though a little bit too pricey for us.

Pros:

Good situation. Great bathroom. Really friendly staff. Free convenient parking. Walking distance to city centre.

Cons:

Room lighting was really poor (especially as this was obviously meant to.be an accessible room). Bed was really comfy but so big that it dominated the room leaving virtually no space to get around it and position of TV didn't help. A smaller bed would make the room so much better!

Nice Hotel
Pros:

Very nice hotel with a great restaurant & bar for dinner and breakfast. A very nice touch in the room was a bluetooth speaker.

Cons:

No A/C so we opened the windows, but needed to have the shades down because of the bright lights from the parking lot. This made the shades blow noisily in the wind making it difficult to sleep.
