    The breakfast was included and had a good variety of pastries, cereals, and fruit. The kitchen was clean and well-organized, and the staff was friendly and helpful. The location was convenient, within walking distance of the waterfront and close to free parking.

    The room was incredibly hot, and there was no way to cool down. It would have been nice to have a small fan, especially since it was during the Christmas season.

    My Great Stay at the Nest Boutique was absolutely amazing. The check-in and check-out process was fast and easy, and the staff were incredibly friendly. The double room with ensuite was impeccably clean and the bed was big and comfortable. I loved the breakfast options which included a variety of breads, pastries, cereal, fruit, yogurt. The location in Salthill, right next to the beach, was perfect and there were plenty of nice restaurants, cafes, and shops in the area. I had a superb experience and I highly recommend this hotel.

    I recently stayed at The Nest Boutique Hostel in Salthill for a short getaway. The check-in and check-out process was a breeze, thanks to the friendly staff. Our double room with ensuite was spotlessly clean and the bed was exceptionally comfortable. The breakfast selection was impressive and delicious, offering a variety of options. The location, right next to the beach, was perfect for leisurely walks along the shore.

    Totally recommend this hotel.

    The staff at this hostel were incredibly friendly and helpful. They went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. The common space and outdoor dining area were lovely, providing a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. The continental breakfast, although simple, was affordable and satisfying. The location was ideal, with a short walk to the city center and easy access to nearby attractions. the staff, atmosphere, and location were the best aspects of our stay.

    The size of the family room we stayed in. It was quite small, especially considering the cost.

    The rooms were beautifully decorated and clean, and the breakfast was surprisingly delicious with a great selection of food and drink. the staff were extremely friendly and provided helpful recommendations for local attractions and experiences. the location was convenient, with easy access to public transportation and nearby shops for grabbing food.

    The shower in the room had a timed knob, which was quite annoying as it required multiple presses to keep the water flowing. the shower room had a connecting door to another room, which didn't lock properly, making us feel a bit uncomfortable.

    the location was convenient, being close to the waterfront and a short walk from town. the room and bathroom were well-appointed, providing everything I needed for a relaxing stay. the service was exceptional, with friendly and helpful staff. the breakfast offered a variety of options including freshly baked pastries and pressed coffee. the facilities, such as ample parking and access to a kitchen, added convenience to my experience.

    There was a lack of storage space in the room, with no bedside tables or cupboards.

    This place was a great find for our romantic escape! We loved the cozy private room and the comfortable beds. The continental breakfast spread was amazing, with a wide variety of options including delicious pastries, yogurt, and granola. And the location was perfect - just a short walk from the city center and even closer to the beautiful seaside neighborhood. The availability of free coffee, tea, water, and juice all day was also a nice touch.

    There were a couple of minor downsides during our stay. The creaky floors and doors were a bit noisy, and the light in the bathroom wasn't working.

    The Nest in Galway was the perfect place for our trip. We stayed for just one night, but we wish we could have stayed longer. The hostel had a modern and welcoming atmosphere, with beautifully decorated rooms and a squeaky clean bathroom. The staff at the front desk were incredibly helpful and gave us great recommendations for local experiences. The breakfast was delicious, with amazing cafetiere coffee and almond croissants. We loved exploring the County Clare countryside during the day and trying out the recommended pubs and coffee shops in the evenings and mornings. a fantastic stay!

    Couldn't recommend this hotel more.

    Some guests have mentioned that the curtains in the room let in a lot of light, making it difficult to sleep at times.
