I stayed at Salmon Weir with a friend for two days in March 2004. It was very cheap, friendly, clean and within a 15 minutes walk of most things in Galway, whether you want the city centre and its pubs & clubs, or the shopping centre just outside of town. Also, there's a 3 AM curfew, so you've got plenty of time to enjoy the great pubs and clubs of Galway. We certainly couldn't expect more for the very low rates that we paid for our twin room.

What the Salmon Weir lacks in luxury, it makes up for in community. Everyone who stays at the Salmon Weir, whether for a night or 6 months, is welcomed into the communal atmosphere through group dinners, guitar sing-alongs, and frequent trips the pub. Close bonds and life-long friendships are formed in the Weir common area. This is not your run-of-the-mill hostel!
