Galway City Hostel in Galway I've stayed in this hostel for quite a long time and it became a second home for me. The staff is very friendly and helpful! Everything is nice an clean. And a big plus is, that it isn't that big and you get in contact with other people quite easy! Only the pub below the hostel can be quite noisy.
Claddagh Hostel Galway in Galway Claddagh Hostel is a great place to stay. My five girlfriends and I stayed here over Easter weekend and the staff was very nice and helpful. There is also internet and I night lounging area where other visitors and the staff would hang out. It was clean, and in a good location. Also, my friends and I left a couple things at the hostel and they have been great about finding and sending the stuff back to us in Spain. Definitely stay here if you go to Galway!
Claddagh Hostel Galway in Galway The people are what made this hostel so great. Amazingly helpful! I had only stayed one night, but I left two pairs of shoes there and one of them happened to be my absolute favorite clogs that I never travel without. They had the whole place looking and then delivered them to me. They went out of their way and for that, I will go back there anytime!
