Drove around Ireland with my son for almost three weeks staying in a different place each night and this was by far our favorite hotel. Lovely clean comfortable rooms friendly staff. Hotel, cafe across the street, and pizza place next door are all owned by the same nice guy and what really set this place apart other than the great rooms was the food. Included breakfast is basically anything off the menu at the cafe across the street and the pizza place had the best pizza we had in Ireland. They were sold out otherwise we would have happily extended our stay another day. Pub up the street has good live music too. Highly recommend this place!

The people are great and the property is good but there are a few things to be aware of if you end up in room 1. Overall we enjoyed our stay. Room 1 overlooks the street and is a good location but there is a bit of noise and some early morning deliveries of kegs makes the place shudder. The lighting in the room is poor. It is an old building with lots of creaks but I don’t know what the people were doing in the room above us but they we could hear every step they took. Room 1 has a couple of maintenance issues that need fixed - the sink tap and a sunken spot on the floor in the bathroom entrance. Breakfast was delicious

Wonderful host checked us in and carried bags to second level. Had welcome treats and showed us how everything worked in room. Nice breakfast and highly recommend for a stop off for an evening or quiet place to stay outside Galway. Charming quiet town.

Stay here! (Not Galway)
It was amazing! Scott was super helpful and upgraded us (thank you), and suggested places for us to visit. Darragh too, he was welcoming and helped bring up our luggage. It's only a short walk to the train station and a 20 minute train ride to Galway. Otherwise, free parking. Plus, we drove to Dublin easily to the airport. We ate at the cafe and restaurant and all had high quality, excellent choice of food, with excellent table service. We had a good walk around Athenry too, what an historical place! Definitely recommend staying here, rather than in Galway.

This was a nice room for a short stop off on our trip. The room was a little small so the price was comparatively a little high, however you had the covenience of being within walking distance of everything as you are in the middle of the township.

Enjoyable Stay
We loved this place. The staff were all so friendly and accommodating. We chose it as a home base to explore the Galway area. We only graded down to a 4 because of the challenging parking situation (very narrow entry alley and the limited number of parking spots) and no elevator (we had a lot of luggage amongst the 5 of us). The rooms were very comfortable, bathrooms very updated and modern. Breakfast across the way at their affiliated restaurant was outstanding. Be aware they do not open for breakfast until 8:30, if you have an early appointment. The pizza restaurant (also affiliated, we think) was also exceptional after a long day of exploring.
