We had a kind of suite with a bedroom and separate TV room. Even the bathroom was extremely spacious and had a window. The shower was just awesome and there was even a bathtub (which we didn't use). The bed was comfy. We had breakfast in the pub one morning which was very good (though the only vegan option is toast with smashed avocado - ask that they serve it without dairy).

The bathrooms were very clean, and the staff were incredibly helpful. They had discounts with nearby businesses which when travelling on a budget is very helpful. In a great location, about 10 minutes walk from both Eyre Square, and Galway Cathedral (in opposite directions).
