The hostel had well equipped kitchen facilities. The lounge area was comfortably furnished, WiFi was available and the place was secure. The dorm bunk beds had curtains around each bed for privacy which was greatly appreciated when it turned out I was the only female in a 6 bed dorm room with 5 guys.
It would have been nice to have a few regular height chairs/table available for eating in addition to the high tables and chairs.

Reviews about Kinlay Hostel Galway
“Everything about this was great! It definitely felt more like a hotel. Beds were comfortable, rooms were clean, having an en suite was great. It was quiet, perfect location, super friendly staff. The space itself is beautiful, very warm looking communal area around reception and the breakfast area was great. Free tea and coffee all day was such a nice touch. Really can't complain at all, fantastic place and experience!”
“Nicest hostel I have ever stayed in .. rooms were spotless beds were so comfortable staff were so helpful and could have got a better location”
