Travelled alone on the way to Aran islands and spent one night in Corrib Village. Booked through hotels.com and price was 19€.

Distance to town center is approx. 3km, but easy walk, on the river side. Room was clean student room (uni campus) with bed, desk, tv (bad reception), own bathroom with shower. Bed was ok, had enough warm water for shower. Wi-fi is available all around the campus for free (corrib village), but you can get appartment specific 24h wi-fi for 3€. Did not understand the practical difference, so I recommend to try the free one first.

Breakfast was simple continental: tea, coffee, cereals, canned fruits, scones and bread, juice.

I can recommend for those who do not require too much for their accommodation.

I booked through the I-Tourist center in Galway. I arrived in Galway the week after the Galway Races, only to find out that was the busiest week and everyone seemed to be booked. Corrib Village is actually several buildings of dorms a few miles from the city center. But, they do offer a free shuttle for most of the day. I stayed there twice during my trip, once for 30euro, once for 50euro. For 30euro, definitely what you expect - clean room, bed, bathroom, access to common family room and kitchen (each hallway is like its own suite- 4 separate bedrooms with separate keys, all with shared access to common areas).Nothing fancy. Simple breakfast included. For 50euro, not a great value. But, it was right off the N59, and it was getting late so I wanted to find a place. The price varies based on how booked they are with different tournaments in town. If you have a car you can park outside your building, without one, you may walk a few blocks to your building. Wi-fi is available, but not free. I think it was 3euro a day. A good place to stay when you haven't pre-booked anywhere else and just want someplace dry and comfortable.. This is not the place to stay if you are looking for cozy comforts, views, or personalized attention.

stayed during Galway races. Basic accomodation but clean and hygienic. Staff are friendly and helpful. Great value at 30 euro. Downside is that its on the outside of Galway city, breakfast room was extremely overcrowded the following morning and cant check in until after 4pm but there is a bungalow where you can get changed while you wait for your room to be ready. Would recommend for a low cost weekend with friends

I arrived here to a location a very long way from the city centre unless you are driving to find a mouldy room with a ripped sheet with a foot print on it. My usual trusty mobile broadband which has never before failed me did not work here due to such a weak signal.

When I reported these problems and the broadband issue the solution was to send some to spray furniture polish in my room and open a window, change the sheets and charge me to use their WIFI. When I said surely they would not charge me for the WIFI considering the problems I had, they said no they had to charge for it. Almost everywhere in Ireland still has free wifi so this was a bit of a puzzle to me.

Generally the accomodation is student accommodation which has not been updated in a very long time. The staff are very friendly and the breakfast is adequate.

I did not expect much coming here due to the cheap price so I expected to merely get what i paid for but sometimes you don't even get that unfortunately.
