We had a lovely stay here. The room was a good size with seating in it as well. The bed was large and comfortable. The location was a short walk to the city center areas. The first day we had to leave extra early to make our ferry to the Islands so we couldn't order a sit-down breakfast. They provided a paper bag with fruit, pastry and juice to take with us. The second morning we were able to order a delicious hot breakfast before going off.
I would say a luggage rack to put your luggage on would be helpful. The other thing would be to open the windows before guests come so there is fresh air to cool off the room. But these are small things.

The entire staff was incredibly welcoming, and the room was ideal for two, featuring a spacious shower and a mini fridge, which is great for extended stays! I really appreciated the aesthetic of the building both inside and out. The breakfast was tasty, and the location was just right for walking to nearly everything!
My partner and I thought that we could request a room cleaning or tidying, and if we didn't, no one would enter our room. Don't get me wrong; we were grateful that someone did come in, but we weren't given any notice. I would recommend putting a simple sign on the door so guests can indicate whether they would like someone to come in and clean or if they prefer not to have it done.

Loved this Bed and breakfast. The staff were exceptional. Such lovely girls and really helpful in regards to recommendations and requests we had. We stayed 4 nights over a very busy time and it was a great location. Just a little distance out of the centre of town and far enough away from the noise and craziness of the bars. Very safe area to walk, day and night and 6 min walk to the closest pub. Clean property with slight noises heard from creaking floors, street and other rooms but nothing that bothered us too much. Amazing breakfast included in the mornings where we met other travellers. Would recommend and would stay again.
The only issue/ feedback I would have would be about the blinds. The blinds let alot of light in from the street and also when the sun rises. Curtains or i vesting in black out blinds may be something worth looking into as this was something we had an issue with. Small issue that didn't bother us too much.

The location of this B & B is excellent and easily located. We chose this place because it because it had free parking and was quite frankly the cheapest property that we could find in this overpriced city. The staff and accommodation are excellent. The breakfast was adequate in so far as it was cooked in a peculiar manner maybe all together in an air fryer (egg yolk solid , mushroom dried out 4 small slices, rashers and sausages okay, black and white pudding oddly dry from the cooking process). Overall impression is that corporate has gone mad on portion control. The cereals, fruit, yogurt, juice selection was very good, and in fairness we enjoyed the breakfast. The room was immaculate, quiet and the bed very comfortable. We slept very well. I would recommend this B&B to anyone having to go to Galway city.

Location was amazing and the parking was great. Easily walk into Galway city centre along a lovely canal. Despite being so close to town, the area is nice and residential, so no late night noise or partying. We had a great, spacious room, clean, everything worked, lots of hot water and good water pressure. Staff are all incredibly friendly and helpful, really lovely people. Breakfast was plentiful and good, lots of options and cooked fresh.
Some light came in through the window, better curtains/blinds would have been ideal. Not a huge problem but we did notice the morning light and outdoor lights at night.

Lovely B&B with an amazing breakfast! The rooms were very clean, I would say cleaner than most other hotels and B&Bs I’ve stayed at. The staff were all friendly and incredibly helpful. They were happy to help us when we needed. As many others have mentioned, the breakfast was incredible. They had toast, bagels, yoghurt, fruit and other cold foods available, and you could order hot foods at no extra cost. I recommend the full Irish or the mini Irish if you want to try a classic Irish breakfast!
The B&B is not in the very centre of Galway, but it is definitely close enough. Just a few minutes walk to the Latin Quarter, and a little bit more to Eyre square.

Desota B&B was a perfect place to stay at if you are visiting Galway! It was a 5 minute walk to the main city center which had an amazing atmosphere. The staff were welcoming and extremely friendly. on top of that, the breakfast was so yummy! It was so nice to be able to wake up, get ready, head downstairs for a good breakfast. They had a huge variety of things to eat along with hot coffee and tea!! Felt like home which was great since we are from the States. Whenever we return to Galway, Desota will be first on my list to stay at :)

Breakfast was great. Service was great. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Very convenient location for walking into town. Would book the same place again.
Our room was facing the road, so it was quite noisy when the traffic started going in the morning. It would be great to have a queen size bed. The shower could also be bigger. Having said as much, none of these stopped us from enjoying our stay, but they are just a few things that could be considered if/when you are doing major improvements.

Nice bed and breakfast located just a 10 minute walk from the Latin Quarter. Room was comfortable, clean and spacious. Breakfast was good. Staff were pleasant and friendly.
Bring your own toiletries. I think there was soap but no shampoo or conditioner.

The whole experience was lovely! The location was great. We were able to walk to most places in town with ease. We traveled to Sligo by bus and were able to walk to the bus depot. it took us about 15 minutes to get there. Breakfast was good, freshly prepared and plentiful. Our overall stay was totally worthwhile. We would recommend it to anyone and we would definitely return.
Please add more vegetarian and vegan options. Porridge was good, but we wished there were more options.
