Good value. The doors are really loud no matter how gently you try to close them. The walk to city centre is on a very busy road, but the upside is there plenty of shopping close to the hostel.

Holiday at Hubble is a nice residence for students. Their website states that it is "premium student living in the center of everything." The location is excellent, within walking distance from the main attractions, and you get a room, some of them with private bath, and a shared area with a TV, a sofa, a kitchen, and dining area. The rooms are very clean and the buildings have been recently remodeled. The staff is nice and helpful.
This said, Hotels.com advertises the place as an apart-hotel and for the deluxe single room en suite that I booked, Hotels.com includes a picture of a kitchen area. Under "unit information" the following highlights are included:
Separate dining area
Separate sitting area
Heating
Full-sized refrigerator/freezer
Smart TV
Renovated in 2024
Private bathroom
Microwave
The information provided by Hotels.com is deceiving. It is not an apart hotel but a student residence and what you get is neither an apartment nor the facilities of your room include refrigerator, Smart TV, dining and sitting area. You won´t get the service of a hotel since there is no cleaning of your room during your stay and not even the toilet paper is replaced.
In summary, the place is nice and well-located and the staff is helpful. It´s just that hotels.com advertisement is deceiving.

This was an affordable hotel within reasonable walking distance to the downtown part of Galway. It is about a 20-25 minute walk and tolerable in good weather. There is not a bus stop close by. The room itself was essentially a dorm room. We had two beds (a full and twin) and one small attached bathroom. No toiletries are provided so remember to bring your own. There are self-service laundry facilities, which cost 4.50 Euros per cycle at the time of our visit. The staff are kind and notified me when they found that I had accidentally left something behind in the room.

This is student housing that is repurposed as hotel/hostel accommodations in the summer I guess. The building is about a 25 minute walk from the center of Galway along a busy road. My room was very clean and the bed was comfortable and warm during the chilly, rainy days I was there. The receptionist at the check in center was nice and the wifi was strong. The shared bathroom was very clean when I arrived although sharing it with (presumably) men from the other dorms meant that the toilet seat was always up when I went in. The biggest issue (for me) was that the walls are paper thin, so I heard every snore, every sneeze, every alarm clock that went off in my unit. And the doors, if not closed carefully, slam very loudly. Overall this is one step up from a hostel multi-bed dorm room.
5.0 / 5.0
These are student apartments rented as holiday rooms in the summer. Everything is new and spotless. There is a shared kitchen where you could fix a meal or two.
Bit confusing to get to if you are using public transport as Hereford road is rather big and the actual bus stop for this place is called Terryland. But once you find it, it is actually in a quite convenient location. Grocery shops Aldi and Tesco within a short walk. The main square where the tours start from is about a 15 - 20 minutes walk away. The local bus 407 which takes you to the main square is not frequent and usually not in time. You are better off walking down.
I would recommend this place if you don't mind walking

overpriced for the type of accommodation
Room was clean and comfortable bed
5.0 / 5.0
Clean and inviting; staff was friendly and helpful. I messaged prior to arrival with questions and each time I had a fairly quick response and questions answered. Laundry room available. It's like a dorm room, so it's a little different from a hotel, which was fine for us. Common area has a full kitchen, TV, table/chairs, couch. No toiletries provided, including hand soap (fine for us -we had our own).
4.0 / 5.0
Check in was easy and the staff very helpful. My only complaint is that our room overlooked the quad and it could be very noisy in the middle of the night.
1.5 / 5.0
If you're looking to stay here to save money, just be aware. The place itself is just fine. However, it's a long walk or long bus ride (20+ mins) to Claddagh and other parts of Galway you're going to want to see. This resulted in me spending more money to get taxis than I would've liked to get back and forth in a more timely manner.
The walls are pretty thin and you can hear your neighbors conversing easily.

Affordable, clean, and perfect for our family's needs
