The Perfect Stay

The property had everything I needed, including a full kitchen, sitting room, immaculate bedroom and bathroom. The room itself was very comfortable. Staff was extremely helpful and patient when I couldn't work out where my room was. The perfect stay!

Great find in the city…. Very warm though!

Perfectly formed rooms

Travelling to Galway for work in August means a premium on your typical hotel stay so I opted for here. Perfectly formed rooms. Clean, comfortable and a great self catering kitchen. The university sits in a residential area so you’ll need.to walk a little to restaurants etc. Taxi service was quick.

10/10 Exceptional

The stay at the University of Galway was lovely. The staff was kind and helpful. It is a 30 minute walk to the city center, but a bus stop is nearby. The water pressure on the shower was quite strong. Otherwise, the stay was excellent.

Only issue I had was my single room was so hot and had difficlty sleeping they gave e a fan. The propert would be wonderful if air conditioning was fitted

Every thing ok
Luis Homero, 6-night trip

8/10 Very good

Beautiful area and amazing to walk around. It’s easier to walk through the university campus than to walk around it (I made that mistake on arrival). It would be nice if the property provided some coffee and tea. I’ve never seen any place that didn’t provide that (including several university accommodations).
