Our stay at The Rest was lovely. It is located just behind The Nest Boutique Hostel, which also provides the check-in, thanks to its nice staff. Everything was as expected, the living room is quite comfortable and wide. The bedrooms were very tidy, while the kitchen could have used a little more thorough cleaning (especially the stove and the supply cabinets).
There are currently some construction works ongoing in the nearby building, not too loud or too early in the morning to disturb though. The smaller room is just nearby the main building entrance and since this part is not very soundproof, some sounds can be bothersome at night. Luckily there were no noisy guests during our stay.
The Salthill area is very pleasant and nicely served: it's lovely to take a stroll both to Galway city centre and on the beachside! The Rest is definitely a good solution for a group of four.
