Bishop O'Donnell Road, Galway, Ireland –

Nothing in particular was attractive with this property

David, United States of America

Everything. The room was amazing for the value and the location was great.

Laura, United States of America

Located close to Salthill of street parking and room was warm and clean .

Bryan, Ireland

Very convenient to travel into town by bus, the hotel is on the main bus route with frequent buses. Great value. Room was basic but clean and bright, with tea and coffee making facilities. I felt very relaxed in the room. I went for an evening stroll along the promenade in Salthill, about 20 minutes brisk walk from the hotel.

Chris, Ireland

Staff were super helpful and friendly. It was great value for money.

Edel, Ireland

Nice big, clean, comfortable room. Very comfy bed also. Staff are incredibly friendly. The guy who checked us in and out was very welcoming. The Nespresso coffee at reception is a nice touch.

Eezipc, Ireland

The eggs were not "extra fluffy", to respond to the question asked for me in the section for the response under this question ("What did you like?"). In fact, there were no eggs. Indeed, I may as well go so far as to say there was NO breakfast whatsoever. This despite my booking informing me of the hours between which breakfast would be available. Even more strangely, as I approached the hotel ahead of my stay there was an enormous, unmissable sign draped on the side of the building telling me that breakfast was actually "served all day". Where was my breakfast? I asked the man at reception the following morning and he shrugged and told me there was none. I enquired about the sign on the side of the building. The man simply shrugged and gave an apologetic smile. I am still waiting on my breakfast.

Michael, Ireland

Everything! I was very impressed! I thought I was staying in a hostel from the price, but when I walked into my full hotel room I couldn't believe it. Hot water, TV, 2 big beds, peace and quiet. This is definitely one of the better hotels in the area, and for the price it can not be beat!

Edward, United States of America

One of the worst ‘hotels’ we’ve ever stayed in. The room had a window that wouldn’t shut and heat that wouldn’t work. It was horrendously noisy too. Awful experience

Paul, Ireland

Staff were most helpful with suggestions and directions.

The rooms are very basic, and there was no way to control the heating yourself. It was kind of cold in the rooms, and couldn't adjust that. When we climbed into bed at midnight, we discovered that the sheets weren't fully covering the mattress, so had to remake the bed ourselves. The shower was really hard to get in and out ot.
I liked the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff, they were great at getting extra pillows and answering questions. It was great to have a jug in the room, to make hot drinks.

The staff were very pleasant and helpful. However, the state of the hotel was like a major building work construction area. It was disgraceful and should not be open to the public until all the construction work is completed. The lift was unavailable so if someone was elderly or had a disability they would definitely not be able to reach their room from the reception area. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone at this stage.
Because of building works going on in the hotel the dining room in the restaurant was unavailable.

The staff was friendly, but the bed was in need of better mattress. The windows need curtains and the wardrobe took up to much space. Shower very small and the water pressure was a slow stream. The room was very clean but cramped with to much bedroom furniture. The hotel is under construction and the walls are paper thin. I wouldn’t stay again but I wouldn’t say not stay there. Just no it is a budget hotel with minimal facilities.
