Negative Reviews
negative:
Location not the most central
The location of the accommodation has not been the most ideal overall for previous visitors. With a location that is some ten minutes away by car from the city centre of Galway, it was stated that there are few restaurants, shops or attractions within reasonable walking distance from the property.
negative:
Rooms lacking in space
According to the sentiments of former guests, the rooms at the B&B were limited in terms of moveable space. This was reportedly exaggerated by the rooms being somewhat cluttered, while the en-suite bathrooms have been especially highlighted for their apparently cramped size.
negative:
Wi-Fi quality not the best
Although the accommodation's free Wi-Fi was seen as fine for the most part, a notable amount of past visitors that used the facility were somewhat disappointed about its overall quality. For those that had issues, the Wi-Fi was considered to be patchy in maintaining a stable connection.
