The hotel offers spacious and spotless rooms that are lovely and comfortable, with friendly staff and good food. However, some days the shower pressure may be low. It is a fab all-around hotel with a clean interior and friendly atmosphere, though it could benefit from room upgrades. The location is walking distance to grocery stores, and the dining experience caters to everyone with delicious options. The facilities are well-kept and the hotel is very helpful to guests but may be a little out of the way from the city centre.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel and can't wait to come back. The newly revamped rooms were cozy but a bit warm, making air conditioning a must. The constant loud fan system throughout the night was a minor downside. The service was top-notch despite a small mix-up with my meal order. The location, while about a mile from the city center, was great for a relaxing break with plenty to see and do in Salthill, Galway. The dining experience was exceptional, with a wide range of delicious options. Overall, a truly enjoyable experience with some minor room comfort issues.
