"Good location for solo travellers"

8.0

Location was excellent. Close to everything you needed. Room itself was a good size, comfortable bed. Shower was a decent size, tea and coffee in the hall. Nothing to complain about.

If I had to find something I didn't like, it would be the noise when the window was open.

Das Zimmer war klein, aber mit allem ausgestattet was man für einen kurzen Aufenthalt braucht. Das Bett war groß und bequem. Das Fenster konnte geöffnet werden, sodass das Zimmer nie zu warm wurde. Auf dem Korridor gab es die Möglichkeit Tee/Kaffee zuzubereiten. Es stand auch ein Korb mit Äpfeln bereit. Zur Info: die Zimmer liegen über dem noblen Tapas Restaurant 'Black Cat' In die Stadt ist man in 20min gelaufen, zum Galway Bay in nur 5min

Es war kein Problem, aber das Treppenhaus zu den Zimmern ist recht eng und steil
