Guest Reviews
- Kelsea (8/5): Our stay was comfortable and relaxing - The bed was very co. Toni , the owner, was great! Loved having tea and coffee in the room! We liked most of it. The stairs were challenging.
- Lauren (10/5): - Great location very comfortable
- Castellani (10/5): -
- Kristiaan (8/5): Super fijne locatie - Een fijne bruisende locatie om de stad te ervaren en te ontdekken Kan iets frisser, schilderwerk en dergelijke.wordt langzaam wat gedateerd
- Keven (10/5): Brilliant - Very easy to get to and were very accommodating letting us check in early
- Kerry (10/5): -
- Charlotte (7/5): Nachts live Musik im Zimmer. - Die Lage ist super. Es war schon sehr laut, da unter dem Zimmer ein Pub ist.
- Cian (10/5): - Ideal location in galway city centre
- Céline (8/5): Fonctionnel - Bien placé près de la gare. Arrivée facile grâce a l'entrée autonome et les consignes reçues en amont. Petit mais fonctionnel.
- Nadine (8/5): Top! - Goede ligging, geen last gehad van de bar Lastig te vinden voordeur
- Antonia (7/5): -
- Elise (8/5): -
- bouchet (8/5): -
- Kayla (10/5): Super great value and cute little place - Location was PERFECT! Yes it is loud but we were warned ahead of time and had absolutely no issues with it. The water pressure was great and the water got hot enough for me! Host was super nice and helpful. My only recommendation would be to maybe have a comfier mattress but it wasn’t a deal breaker and it wasn’t even that bad. Mattress could’ve been more comfy. That was truly it!
- Marcel (7/5): - Die zentrale Lage ist super. Leider ist es sehr laut, man hört jede Tür knallen und im Pub drunter ist bis 00:00 Uhr Geschrei. Auch die Matratze hat ihre besten Zeiten hinter sich.
- Paul (10/5): - Great location, Toni is a great host , made us very welcoming to the Woodquay house, e would stay there again definitely.
- Nicola (8/5): Perfetto - La camera molto carina e anche il tavolino con i te’ e l’acqua molto fornito Nulla
- Erin (9/5): - The location was great. Plenty of decent pubs in the vicinity. We were on the 3rd floor which was great as we couldnt really hear the pub noise downstairs. All the facilities were there, iron, hairdryer, plenty of towels and toilet rolls etc. Bathroom was clean and tidy. Bed was very comfortable. Great value for money for Galway. Highly recommend N/a
- Καρτέρη (9/5): - Καθαρό περιποιημένο και όμορφο δωμάτιο! Το περασαμα ήταν στενό, λόγω και της κεκλιμένης οροφής!
- Veronique (10/5): - L emplacement et la gentillesse de l hôte.
- SHAUN (7/5): - Comfortable and good location Needs a good splash of paint
- Maureen Lee (7/5): - Location close to venue we were attending. Toni and barman were very friendly. Beds comfortable. Bathroom clean. Odour in hall way and bedroom. Cobwebs around the ceiling which can be sorted easily.
- Scarlett (8/5): -
- Aneta (6/5): - Za tu cenu dostačující. Určitě to chce vyměnit matrace. Pérová matrace, která pod zadkem a zády už péra nemá není vůbec pohodlná. Okno se nedá zcela zavřít, takže hluk s ulice je plně slyšet.
- Vittoria (10/5): -
- OLGA (10/5): -
- Geraldine (3/5): It was fine for 2 nights - Location Shower was leaking in one room
Could not use it but the property manager was very nice and did try to get it fixed
- Luca (9/5): -
- ANGELA (8/5): - location no channels on our tv
- Bertazzoli (7/5): -
- Lina (Olena) (10/5): -
- Michaela (1/5): Would not recommend - Smell of damp clung to clothes
We were told it would pass and is usually not like this
Smelt the entire trip
Everything needed washed when we got home
Some clothes were actually thrown out at how bad the smell was
One friend had to leave due to asthma because of the damp
- Maria Belen (8/5): -
- Jonathan (8/5): - Very clear communication. Everything as
- Robert (6/5): Great location for visiting shops and enjoying the Irish atmosphere - Great location, a little loud but reasonable for being above a pub The mattress was uncomfortable
- Holly (4/5): - Room was very basic. No hangers.
- Idoia (6/5): - La ubicación y lo bien preparada y limpia que estaba la habitación y las toallas El ruido del bar de abajo, que era bastante intenso. Se escuchaba la música y a veces, incluso, voces de las personas.
- Hannah (10/5): -
- Ieltzu (8/5): - La ubicación y el personal La cama
- Kelly (10/5): -
- Kyle (10/5): -
- Sarah (10/5): -
- Lucas (7/5): - Comodisima para 2 personas
Muy limpia, gran ubicación y muy fácil de hacer el check in Nos dijeron que había un problema con la alfombra del pasillo por una gotera y que ofrecían reembolsarnos una noche si aceptábamos quedarnos igual y nunca nos reembolsaron nada
- John (7/5): - Location and cost
- Boggatz (8/5): -
- Jose Luis (10/5): Días agradables en Galway - Buena ubicación, cómodo, agradable. El chico del pub nos abrió y enseñó todo. Súper amable y dispuesto.
El trato con Toni, el casero también amable y sincero.
- Bella (1/5): -
- Sophie (9/5): - De host was zeer behulpzaam.
- Natasha (4/5): Disappointed and staff not responding. - Good location. The bathmat was dirty. The bathroom light turned off and started flickering after not even 2min. We contacted the host multiple times but didn't get an answer. We had to shower and use the bathroom in the dark during our entire stay.
- Sandra (3/5): Great location but not worth it - Location excellent Very strange dirty smell. The carpet in the room was absolutely soaking wet. Everything felt damp and cold. Our socks got drenched when we took off our shoes and stood on the carpet. Contacted the host through booking.com and got no response.
- Mary Ellen (3/5): - Comfortable beds No communication on how to locate & enter the property...the sign outside is barely visible.Luckily the Barnet door was still open & Barney was helpful,the entrance was shabby & rundown with an air of neglect,grubby carpets on the stairs.The room was very small & unnecessarily full with a dirty floor fan & shabby ironing board leaning dangerously against the wall.Vision obscured with patterned film so you couldn't see out of the window.Hairs in the shower,tatty teeny towels ,non functioning ventilation fan in the bathroom
- Sandra (9/5): -
- Imelda (9/5): Enjoy my stay - How close it was to restaurants, pubs and shops It was very warm
- Sharon (10/5): -
- Richard (10/5): -
- fergus (10/5): -
- Lee (7/5): Host is friendly and helpful. The room offered is way overpriced - Location was the best selling point Way too expensive for what you get. No breakfast for the price. Room was tiny. Hard time getting sleep with the noise.
- Lawrence (7/5): Budget choice, could be better with a few improvements. Arrival experience soured us. - Budget property and you get what you pay for. A bit off the beaten path, but a reasonable walk to the night life. Not a hotel per se, it is a set of rooms above a bar with no on-sight staff. Room was tired but serviceable and reasonably clean. Bed felt hard when sat on, but was actually reasonably comfortable for sleeping. Directions to property were lacking. GPS takes you to the far end of the street where there is actually a "Woodquay Hostil" which we confused for our property. It was pouring rain when we arrived and there is no parking provided. Nearby parking is in high demand and there is no place to legally load and unload. It would have been helpful if the owner had mentioned the property was above the Tigin Bar instead of just saying they could help us if we needed them. Address on building is very hard to see. Shower was clogged and you had to shower quickly to avoid overflowing and flooding (left note for owner.)
- Dominique (4/5): décevant - L'accueil de Toni Logement vieillot et très bruyant en soirée (proche des pubs du quartier) et mal isolé phoniquement
Literie complètement HS - Matelas en très mauvais état, peu confortables
- Sarah (9/5): -
- Lauren (10/5): It set the bar very high for our Ireland trip! - Staff was really nice. Due to travel we arrived early and the housekeeping staff had just finished so we were able to drop our things in our room earlier than expected. An outlet on each side of the bed for charging? It wasn’t a issue really. Just a quick thought.
- Petra Éva (8/5): Kényelmes, tiszta, jó az elhelyezkedése, viszont ha valaki pihenni szeretne, nem biztos, hogy a legjobb választás a hang - Kényelmes nagy ágy, tisztaság, volt kikészítve tea és víz is. Közel van a busz és vonat állomás, központi helyen van. A szállás alatt van egy bár ahol hangos élő zene szólt mindkét este amíg ott voltunk. (amivel nem lett volna bajunk, ha ír trad zene szól) Eléggé felhallatszott a szobába.
- James (10/5): - Comfortable excellent central location All was good
- Ross (10/5): -
- Ciara (4/5): Great location but very cold at night. - The location was brilliant and the room was very clean and modern. I found the room was absolutely freezing at night. During the day the heat was on but must have been turned off at night so we were extremely cold which was very disappointing considering it is winter. The heat should be priorities for being on during the night more so than the day.
- Fergus (9/5): -
- Colm (7/5): Extremely helpful & friendly host/ staff - Location
- domenico (9/5): Piacevole soggiorno nel centro di Galway - Posizione centralissima, stanza #1 spaziosa e gradevole Materasso a molle ormai sformato. Chi soffre di insonnia porti i tappi per le orecchie, si trova sopra a un pub

- Lucrecia (9/5): - La habitación estaba muy bien. Había café y te por cortesía del dueño. En todo momento Toni estuvo en contacto conmigo y fue súper amable. La ubicación era perfecta. Nada
- Ronan (10/5): -
- J (7/5): -
- Wamelink (6/5): - De bedden lagen lekker, en de kamer was goed geïsoleerd dus het was niet koud 's avonds. Op de pagina van booking.com was het absoluut niet duidelijk dat het hotel boven een pub zit. Hierdoor was op tijd gaan slapen door de week absoluut geen optie.
- Joan (10/5): - Central to everywhere in the city No complaints
- Con (2/5): Very, very disappointing. - The Location Freezing cold, noisy dirty carpets, little or no heating. The front door banging every time somebody went in or out shook the room door it was that loud. The radiator is in need of flushing out as only the bottom of it got warm and the first night the place was freezing. This was supposed to be a treat away for my wife and myself as we hadn't been away for a long time but it was a disaster and we were just glad to get home.
- Rachel (8/5): -
- Roberto (7/5): - Localização O acesso externo danificou e ficamos presos na rua, sem pode acessar a hospedaria. O suporte não ocorreu e ninguém atendeu o telefone infelizmente. Até agora não entendi como alguém que estava na rua conseguiu acessar e abrir por dentro, não me pareceu muito seguro....
- Sara (9/5): -

- pamela (7/5): -
- Agnese (7/5): -
- Gupta (9/5): - It was very clean and comfy bed
- Maria (3/5): - Loved the location nice bar underneath.Comfortable beds. Way too hot in the room even with the fan on. The shower was way too high off the floor not safe.The lightening was very bad too dark.We asked for fresh towels as we stayed2 nights.We didnt receive them.
- Thaís (10/5): -
- KIERAN (1/5): Worst accommodation we have ever stayed at in Galway. - Property very very disappointing. Very disappointing. The photos advertised for this property do not resemble the state of the property. Bed very uncomfortable. Carpets very dirty right from the front door up the stairs and into the bedroom. Wash hand basin in bathroom not draining. Toilet seat broken. Room absolutely freezing cold. TV did not have any channels to watch and even after I tried tuning it. The owner sent a message prior to our arrival telling us that if we had any questions or queries to Whattsapp or text him on the number he provided. I messaged him twice but did not even receive any acknowledgment of having received my messages. We are frequent visitors to Galway. This is definitely the worst accommodation that we have ever stayed in.
- Margaret (10/5): -
- eoghan (9/5): -
- Shane (7/5): Good location, little rough around the edges - Great location in Galway. Lovely staff who checked us in. Right above an awesome little pub. Easy walk from the train/bus station. Little rough around the edges and can be a bit noisy when there is life music down stairs in the pub.
- Lucia (10/5): -
- Reilly (10/5): -
- Reisebaum (5/5): - location is great, just a short walk to the bars not clean, carpet smelled and was full of stains, glasses had lipstick stains on etc.
- Zoe (5/5): - The size of the room was great for a bed and breakfast and the closeness to the city center, restaurants and the train station. Honestly, i was disappointed. We knew that this was a bed and breakfast but there were definite updates that need to be done to the property. Windows in the bathroom were very old and there was a cracked tile in the bathroom with a black bag sticking out. We were also going to use the kettle for coffee/tea but stopped when there was still water left and black slime stuck to the side and bottom.
- HERVÉ (7/5): Pratique - Pas de petit déjeuner Pas de personnel et de petit déjeuner
- Jean-Luc (5/5): -
- Gottwald (3/5): Nicht zu empfehlen - Die Lage Es hat sehr schlecht gerochen.
An der Duscharmatur ist Schimmel, an einem Handtuchhalter viel Rost
Es war laut.
Es war sehr beengt und der Teppich auf der Treppe hat sie unsicher gemacht
