"Excellent"

The room was spacious, well-equipped, and clean. I liked the on-site laundry facilities. The downside was that on-site parking was limited.

"A bit of noise during the Races should not dissuade you from the great staff and neat facilities."

8.0

I would love to give The Westwood a 5 out of 5. The facilities are impressive. The room is efficient. The bathroom surprising chic. The commons areas are top-notch, and even better are the staff, who are friendly, warm, and helpful. My one knock is the noise, which cannot be controlled, especially during the Races. Every time a fire door shuts there is a bang, which can be disconcerting when revelers return in the wee hours. I state again, this does not reflect on the fine folks who worked hard to make our stay nice. It is more a reflection on me who needed to book a place to stay before starting a hiking trip in Inishmore. I just didn’t understand the scope of the Races. My wife and I enjoyed the walk through the campus into Galway. We found the Spar Market convenient, and we really appreciated the ease of use afforded by the laundry room. So, pack some AirPods and book your stay.

"Good"

6.0

kitchen tools were really dirty, especially the oven. our room had gathered so much dust that you could've picked it up with your hand. once a staff member barged in our room while we were naked, saying he mistook the rooms (he could've knocked lol) i had to ask for towels and toilet paper myself. the gate outside was broken and made a huge crashing sound whenever used (almost the whole day because obviously people enter and leave) and that was really noisy and bothersome. overall nice place but perhaps only for 2 days...

"Uni accommodation: you get what you pay for "

The room was next to a busy main road with no double glazing. Roadworks at night until 3am, asked to move room but was resisted. Furnishings cheap and uncomfortable.

"Terrible stay at Westwood Galway"

2.0

The staff would not move us from our room, the room was dirty, stains on the sheets, and holes in the towel. Staff refused to provide refund upon checking out early. Do not stay here.

I've never had such kind and friendly service in a hotel before. Esther, Ellen, Eric and really all the staff at reception desk were amazing. There are fancier places to stay, but this was clean and I've never had friendlier service. The service in the convenience store next door was a little less friendly and impersonal.
