The hotel is ideally located just outside the city center, within a short 5-10 minute walk to everything in Galway. The rooms offer a cozy ambiance with free self-baked cookies, a lovely view of the flowering plants, a plush bed, and a brand new ensuite bathroom. While the dining experience was delightful, the lack of Chinese restaurant options nearby could be a downside. The service provided, especially housekeeping and laundry, was top-notch and added to the overall pleasant stay.
