Location, staff, cleanliness and other guests were all 10/10! Super nice and friendly. The hostel had a very nice and respectful enviornment. They offered dinner for 5€ every night, which was vegan and delicious. We had a lovely time!

I am a graduate of NUIG and it was lovely to be able to host a American student I am mentoring on campus. Very accessible to Eyre Square and many of the special sites unique to Galway City.
