Pros:

Room was spacious and bed was comfortable. Bar area was busy and well staffed. Wish I had time to test out the pool.

Cons:

Service in the Restaurant was very slow and it was meant to be the premium option. Food was very good when it finally arrived.

Nice place ro stay, worth the money.
Pros:

This was the first hotel in Ireland that provided slippers in the room — a lovely surprise!

The sliding entrance door was quite dirty — covered in dust and cobwebs, which left a negative first impression

Comfortable stay, but too far away, and everything (parking, laundry, breakfast) was an extra charge
Pros:

Room was very spacious and comfortable, as was bath.

Cons:

The listing says the facility had laundry but instead they only had the option of sending it OUT - very expensive! It was a much farther walk (40 min.) from main tourist area than we expected. On-site restaurant was not great, neither the food nor the service. (Waitstaff couldn't explain one of the dishes!)

Very nice room with plenty of space and a good sea view. Didn't like the shower over the bath
Pros:

Breakfast was excellent - good view from dining room.

Cons:

Evening meal was only average with not much choice. We booked a 2 course meal on line. But after having our first meal we decided to dine out in Galway.
