I am impressed with this hostel and would definitely recommend if you are looking for a good stay place new city center. Loved the ambience, cleanliness and staff service.

I would highly recommend this hostel. Really modern with lovely facilities, really clean and right in the centre of Galway. Coffee, tea and fruit on tap and breakfast included also. We had a family room and were very impressed and our two teenagers loved the place. Congratulations to owner and staff, keep up the good work.

It is super close to the city center, the mattress and pillow are super comfortable. The shower is very good and relaxing. The staff is super nice, they helped so much and made our stay super comfortable. The breakfasts were very complete and delicious. Overall a great experience.

He gave us some very useful information about the city and pubs recommendations. We then joined the pub crawl activity, which allowed us to get to know other young travellers and spend some good time in the city. ...
