The place was clean and comfortable and the ear plugs were a nice touch. It would be helpful to have a shelf in shower to hold personal shower products and a shelf at small sink for tooth brush etc. enjoyed stay.

Basic with very few amenities and no on site staff. More of a hostel than a hotel.
The room and property were beautiful, comfortable and clean. The check-in and check out process was so easy and smooth, and the location was great - within walking distance to the main attractions in Galway. Would definitely stay here again!
Self check in. No staff onsite. very convenient location to stores, restaurants and activities. Room very clean and modern. Well kept. Great place to stay.
Very clean and tidy stay near the center of Galway. We were able to self check-in with no problems and the property features the best of both worlds, hotel and Airbnb. The concierge was very helpful via WhatsApp.

Great location. Easy check in.
Cosy cute room.
But, when we checked in, while it was clean it smelled really badly as if it had been cleaned with smelly mop/cloth. Once we opened the windows and aired out the room it was fine in a few hours.
Our room wasn’t re-made after the first night. We didn’t get fresh towels, so small things tk improve on.
Beautiful room with brand new everything —room amenities were all thought through and never felt like we were missing anything. Such a pleasant stay with convenient parking and so close to the popular Latin quarter to enjoy Galway’s thriving nightlife! Thanks for a wonderful time!
As checking in the room key machine would not work we stood there for a half hour even longer trying to call the support phone no one would answer we finally got a hold of them and we did end up getting our key but it’s not worth standing around waiting that long after a long road trip down, the room was a little cold and there was so way to change the temperature and found a small bug in the bed, it’s in a good area and didn’t get too loud tho that’s the good thing about staying here
I had a very comfortable stay at The Woodquay Townhouse. Upon my arrival I did meet Liam who was extremely kind and helpful. There isn't concierge service, but if you do get to meet a staff member, they are lovely. Everything was clean, the bed was very comfortable and the room was lovely. It's not central, which I found to be a plus as it can get very noisy downtown. It takes about 10-20 minutes to walk to the city-center.

An average stay. We arrived shortly after 1500 and we could not check in w the electronic check in system. Thankfully someone from the cleaning staff helped us resolve the situation, otherwise unsure what could have transpired.
