    If there is anything to complain it would be other guests that are very noisy.

    Every single details was well thought. It feely very cosy and warm. Breakfast is great, fresh, homemade. There is a lot of homemade and local sources elements there. Galway is lovely little town where all you need is within walking distance.

    There's very little I can think of that could have been better - the only tiny thing I can think of would be that an extra hook or two in the bathroom would have helped with drying our towels!

    The Stop was excellently located in Galway's West End, very clean and comfortable, with delicious breakfast options, a stylish and thoughtful aesthetic and welcoming, attentive and helpful staff. We stayed for just under a week and Russell ensured that we never left for the day without a plan of things to do, and never without recommendations for snacks, coffee, lunches, dinners and music. We would strongly recommend it to anyone visting Galway and/or the surrounding countryside like Connemara National Park, the Aran islands and the Burren.

    The room i was in was quite small in size, especially the ensuite bathroom (really very narrow). In addition, the rooms are not fully sound proof -the building is old so I could hear the people in the room above move about and chat (they were not particularly noisy, just normal interactions during reasonable hours) and I also could hear another guest snore on one night (he or she may have been unusually loud).

    The staff are very friendly and welcoming. The communal spaces are tastefully decorated. The B&B is just a 10 minute walk into the centre of Galway.

    The owner and staff were very helpful and friendly. The breakfast was delicious and creative. The location and availability of street parking nearby made it easy to get to and walk around.
