Location Noise - we were directly above the nightclub and the staff refused to move us until the next morning. When we were moved the next day there was a party in one of the rooms which went on until 4.30am and the staff did not try to stop it. Cleanliness - the room was dirty, smelly (from cigarette smoke), noisy and had burn marks all over the carpet. Galway is beautiful but when we go back we won't be staying here.

The location was very central I was extremly disappointed with the overall experience, the rooms where dingy and musty, the bathroom had damp and the level of noise was way beyond Resonate as described in hotel confirmation form. Bed matress very uncomfortable - could feel springs, very disappointing would not recommend.

Not much really - we were looking for a central hotel to get a good night sleep before a half marathon the next day. Nothing that was said on the website, reviews, etc prepared me for just how bad this hotel was. Noise was ridiculous - nightclub downstairs and bars across the streets had lots of drunkards (vomit, fighting... the works). To make it worse, after the nightclubs closed, an alarm went off at the Centra across the street - and stayed on for 2 hours. Once the alarm was turned off, the street cleaners started up. In short - we got no sleep. Other than the noise, the hotel itself is a bit shabby -the rooms need an upgrade (like triple paned windows to start) - particularly if they are expecting people to pay €100 per night for two people.

central location. i am a smoker so i was happy with being able to smoke in my room. however, my friends staying in another room were not smokers and they were a bit put out that they could smell smoke in their bedroom from the people staying before them. i think there should be designated smoking rooms and designated non- smoking rooms because the smell of smoke can be annoying or off- putting for others.

Rooms need revamp. The breakfast was small to say the least, and during our stay other guests had also commented..Ie 1 sausage, 1 piece of bacon, 1/2 white pudding, 1/2 black pudding. We thought it to be more of a childs portion than an adults.

Food and bar. Staff and facilities were fine, but potential clients should specifically request a room not facing the front onto Forster Street. There is a late night-club below and a loud music bar opposite, while the very loud street-cleaning lorries trundle past at around 6.00 A.M.!

Very good location to Galway city centre It was very noisy as it is next to a nightclub and this noise continued till 2am. It is not suitable for a young family, older couples or even those on business.

I found the staff very friendly and social, the room were very clean and cozy. The location was excellent, right beside Eyre Square, no taxi or buses needed, all the shops, pubs and restaurants were within walking distance of a few minutes. Overall lovely place to stay. Would recommend it to friends.
