Fun and funky vibe. Helpful staff. Walkable in 10-15 minutes to great eatery options in either direction. Walk to town center to eat was enjoyable, but you’ll need a reservation to go where you wish in the high season.

Short walk to Galway’s famous restaurant strip. For a hostel, this was well done. We had a clean, tidy room with own bathroom. Had a window we could open which is important because there is no AC. Couldn’t fault it. Recommend.

I needed a place for overnight in Galway City. The Nest was clean, convenient, staff was friendly and efficient, the common areas were comfortable and the were spaces to work. The wifi was excellent. The breakfast was a good value and delicious.Theyx also had lockers available to store luggage after checkout. I was meeting a friend who was coming by bus from Dublin. I was able to store my luggage and take a nice long walk on the beach before meeting my friend. It was perfect for what vI needed.

My first hostel Experience, and was really good. Everything went well. Met some amazing co travelers. Only problem is limited parking in the property and I was skeptical to park on the curb, but all went well.
