Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
An OK mid-range hotel. Beds were comfortable, and the windows can open for fresh air which is welcome and not always the case. Parking is very convenient, and it is only a short motorway drive to Galway city. On the other hand, organization at reception was a little haphazard (e.g. our dinner reservation was lost); breakfast was rather uninspiring, and our room and nearby corridors smelled stale.
