Nice location, good clean apartment
Kinda loud, you heard the band playing in the pub next door. But they stopped at 12, so it wasn’t to bad.
Shame there is only one bathroom and toilet.

It was clean and functional in walking distance to central Galway.
Technically very expensive by Australian standards.

Wonderful
The location was great, the staff was super friendly, and it was nicely decorated. Good water pressure in the shower, plenty of space, nice little hang out space with coffee in the private dorm area.
The bed was a little worn and only came with a heavy (but nice!) duvet. A top sheet would have been a good thing. The private rooms were disconnected from the rest of the hostel so not sure what it is like.

No complaints, great stay!

This place is a hidden gem - it's managed by the hostel, but is actually a separate flat around the corner from the hostel. The location is amazing, and you still are able to pop over to the hostel for their continental breakfast.
The living room is tiny. If we had been traveling with a smaller group it would have been fine, but a tight squeeze for six people.

Great location, easy to get to and a very chill process to check in. Not tons of info about parking nearby but we were easily able to sort it ourselves. Clean and comfy room!

Great location. Quiet but still close to everything. Wonderful staff and I liked that I could store my bags. Good water pressure in the shower!
I was on the ground floor and there was a very faint musty/mildew smell that bothered my allergies and asthma. Can’t imagine staying there more than a couple nights because of it. It immediately cleared up after my stay.

Disappointing
Good position, staff is friendly the room is furnished and clean
The room is below ground, looks like a cellar more than a room. Or better, it looks like a shoebox given its dimensions.
Walls are paper thin and we were constantly woken up at night by people in the corridor.
The bathroom is old, two faucets style, impossible to get warm water in the sink
