Great Location
Pros:

Excellent Location, which is why we booked this hotel. Walking distance from the train (which is how we arrived) and you are in the heart of everything. There were 4 people in our party so we had the larger room, which was basically a 2-bedroom stay, each with their own half bath.

Cons:

Because we had the larger room and it contained stairs, the Emergency light sign next to the steps going down was annoyingly bright and a bit disruptive to sleep. Great Location = noisy streets

Pros:

Good location if you want to be part of the action and pub life.

Cons:

If you don’t want to be out till 2 am drinking, you can’t really fall asleep with all the noise and music outside your window. A good place to stay if you are in your 20s. Not for older clientele. Space is very small. Meant to have a weekend bag not a huge luggage.

Toller Aufenthalt. Jederzeit wieder.
Pros:

Das Snug Townhouse liegt direkt im Zentrum von Galway. Wir waren in einem zweistöckigen „Zimmer“ untergebracht. Es war ruhig und alles vorhanden, was man braucht. Eine Dusche im EG, auf den beiden Stockwerken je ein kleines WC mit Waschbecken. Für 20€ pro Tag kann man im sehr eng geschnittenen Parkhaus parken.

Bad night sleep
Pros:

Room very clean and shower great. Staff amazing

Cons:

Were supplied with early buds to sleep didn't work. Worse night sleep i ever had. Music in pubs finish around 1.30 am. then slept until someone with leave bowler at 5.00 am them rubbish truck at around 6.am. should be put on bookings about noise. Not value for money. I stayed in hotels with breakfast for less any better quality

Alles, was man braucht, in top Lage
Pros:

Super Lage und sehr freundliches Service-Personal. Das Zimmer war absolut sauber und das Badezimmer ein Traum.

Cons:

Die Matratze fand ich extrem unbequem - eine Federkernmatratze, in der man die Metallfedern durch das Laken gespürt hat. Ich habe mich darauf wundgelegen.

Disappointed
Pros:

Clean and central location

Cons:

Rooms are extremely small - okay for one person. No elevator- staff were not friendly - e.g. they made no attempt to say hello upon entering or leaving the building each day.
