My stay at Park House Hotel in Galway had its ups and downs. The location was fantastic, just a short walk to Eyre Square, making exploring the city super easy. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, which really enhanced my experience. However, I found my room to be a bit dated and the view quite disappointing, looking out at a rusted wall. While I enjoyed the delicious breakfast, I felt the overall value for the price paid wasn't quite there.
