This was perfect! It was self check in and easily accessible by using the touch screen and the door code! Everything we needed was in our room. The parking lot across the street from this hotel - Bowling Green, was perfect spot to park our rental car. We stayed from Friday to Monday and Sundays are free parking! Everything you need is within walking distance including Eyre Square, Latin Quarter and Nimmos Pier.

Hotel is located in a perfect location for Galway! It is a few blocks away from the strip of bars so you aren't hearing too much loud noise at night. There is a car park right across the street from the hotel which is great. Checking in was super easy and convenient. At night there is a security guard to make sure no strangers come into the building which made us feel safe. Only complaint was rooms were a little small for 2 people and their bags. It was fine for us for 2 nights.
