**Review Subject:** A Comfortable and Well-Located Stay at Galway City Hostel **Review:** I had a great stay at Galway City Hostel. The location is excellent, making it easy to explore the city. Everything was functional and spotlessly clean, from the dorms to the bathrooms. The staff were friendly and welcoming, adding to the positive experience. I stayed in a 16-bed dorm, but with only five guests, it felt spacious and comfortable. The en-suite facilities were well-designed, with two toilet cabins and three showers, all impeccably clean. The hot water worked perfectly, and complimentary shampoo and conditioner were a nice touch. Breakfast was more than satisfactory, providing a good start to the day. The overall atmosphere was quiet and pleasant, allowing for a restful stay. A small but appreciated gesture was that they didn’t charge me for the padlock at check-in because I only had a €100 bill and no smaller change—I returned it at check-out. They also provided a towel free of charge. For anyone looking for a well-run, clean, and conveniently located hostel in Galway, I highly recommend it.
Very clean with a nice atmosphere between arrivals.
