The staff is super friendly and helpful, there's always a smile for guests 😀 The rooms and bathrooms are clean and everyone seemed very respectful both in dormitories and common areas. The common space is amazing, there's a kitchen with everything you might need and a big table that's perfect to enjoy your meals while having a coat with other travelers. Cushions by the windows to sit back and relax are just great and there are books and games to play! Always water and tea available. I had my best time in Galway, will definitely come back!!

It is a lovely property with great facilities and staff, and the most beautiful neighbourhood. Only a stone's throw away from the beach. Plus, you get to complete a jigsaw puzzle! It's totally worth the price! Also, great recommendations from the host!
