Stayed here as part of a tour group. Tired B&B in the College Road string of B&Bs - bed was not comfortable and linens were worn. Breakfast was adequate but not the best had on a 2 week stay around the island. Staff was lovely though and very thoughtful, which made up for it.

After leaving Dublin, Galway was our first stop outside the capital. We arrived rather late in the afternoon, but were relieved when this listing from our guidebook had a room. We were charged 50 euros per person (the most we paid for a B&B on our trip) for a shabby room and a mediocre breakfast. The linens and furnishing were not just dated, but plain worn out (our bedspread had multiple holes in it). Considering our late booking, I was glad to have a room at all. However, if you can plan ahead, I would look elsewhere.
