Nice, clean though small room with very large, comfortable, bed and a window. Clean private bathroom with excellent shower but very small sink, though adequate. Good towels and bed linen. Place was quiet. Nice staff. Communal kitchen very clean and with good resources. Cafe/ seating area was nice with a friendly vibe and a lovely cafe run by very friendly people, and with excellent cakes

We had a wonderful stay at The Nest. Would highly recommend to anyone visiting Galway. Staying out in Salthill was beautiful and scenic.

10/10 Exceptional

We stayed at the nest for one night in the private accommodations. The small fridge was appreciated and I had possibly the best shower of my life. Our room was comfortable and quiet. Despite being street facing on the ground floor noise was not an issue and we had a fantastic night's sleep after enjoying an evening in Galway. Eat near the Nest and then walk downtown for a great party!
