I enjoyed my stay and...

Liked: The location was ideal. The staff were very friendly and approachable. I felt very safe returning to the hostel at night due to the presence of night security staff. I met some friendly people in the room I shared!
Disliked: I arrived to breakfast a few minutes after 10, I think it would be good to still get a bit of breakfast until 10.15 maybe

Perfect place to stay in...

Best hostel in Galway

Liked: Kinlay is always a great experience. Been staying with Kinlay for 6 years now every time we’re in Galway’s for Sports Competitions and the staff are amazing, the facilities are so clean and accessible. The privacy curtains on each bed in the rooms is such a relief when you need some down time after a long day. As always 10/10 from Kinlay and will no doubt be back again soon!
