Loved the fact we were given ground floor room because, as Australians, we were likely to be travelling with lots of baggage; so very thoughtful.

Nice B & B
Very nice bed & breakfast with our own bathroom connected to the room. Rooms are a little on the small side but comfortable. It was a cold, rainy day & when we asked about the heat we were told it was off for the summer but hostess graciously turned it on so that we could get warmed up. Very pleasant hostess who welcomed us & suggested a restaurant nearby for dinner (Powers Thatch Bar & Restaurant) which was excellent. Breakfast was home cooked by hostess & good variety. Don’t book here if you’re going to be late arriving. Last checkin is 7pm. We thought we might be late & called ahead. Hostess was gracious & told us not to worry as traffic in Galway can be a problem. We did make it before 7pm, though.
