★★★★★

Great location for anyone visiting the university. Literally across the road. Clean rooms, easy self check-in with the PIN code, and the coffee downstairs is genuinely excellent.

Stayed for a work trip to the hospital. Five minutes by foot. Room was quiet, well-kept and comfortable. The café discount is a nice touch — used it every morning.

Really well-situated B&B in a good part of Galway. The Mocha Beans coffee is excellent and the 10% discount made breakfast very reasonable. Would book again.
