This is good for those who just ned a bed at the end of the day and are more up for site-seeing. Its provides the basics. Location was good for me that I was away from the city center it was quiet it was Secure very minimal of course because it's College residence it was a 30-minute walk to go downtown but only a 10-minute walk to Tesco & 15 min where the boutique shops were located.

The rooms are on the smaller side, and it’s a 7-8 min drive to the city center… apart from that all is good

Better than expected, knowing it was student accommodation. Cleanliness and Bathroom facilities were first rate. Having the kitchen space was good too. Fairly quiet, even though on a main road. The staff were really helpful.

Room was decent for 1 person to much of a squeeze for 2 people would recommend getting a 2 bedroom one no tv in the room but 1 in the common room where there is a kitchen if you want to cooke

Very close and walkable to north campus of U of Galway. The room was clean and supplied with sheets/duvet, towels, bath tissue and soap. No other amenities, although I believe guests can request some toiletries as well as a hair dryer. The room was quite warm with no individual control of the thermostat. Staff promptly delivered a fan to the room when I inquired. The kitchen/common area on my floor was clean. I think some basic instructions for the appliances would be helpful for guests from other countries. A clean and safe accommodation for budget travel.
