If you're a party person this hotel is for you ;)
The size of the rooms was decent, loved the in room coffee pot and you can't be at the location BUT the pub below was BLASTING music well past 2am and even with 2 sound machines and closed windows no sleep was to be had. Staff were polite but not friendly and with no breakfast service available we'll make a different choice on our next visit to Galway.

A great location, right in the thick of it. The only downside to that is that it’s a little noisy at night (something we were aware of before booking anyway).

Renae

Great location in the midst of everything fun!
Great stay with reception staff going the extra mile to ensure our stay was organised. Recommend the pub downstairs for food and music but get in early or you will miss out. The room can get a bit hot but use the fans supplied, they do a great job! Overall the Residence had everything we were wanting from our stay which was fun and ease.
