Mary's place was incredible! She was so sweet and accommodating. Her breakfast served every morning was the perfect way to start our day. The location of her B&B was perfect as well. Being situated across the bridge from the touristy busy part of town, but just a stone throw away form all the activity. The room my boyfriend and I... More

I found the listing for the B&B in one of the travel books while still in Dublin. On the way to Galway, we called and Mary was lovely and accommodating. We booked two rooms for four of us and we all loved the place and Mary's help and suggestions. We ended up staying an extra night because we felt so... More

My partner and I stayed at St Martin's B&B for two nights. After navigating the narrow streets we found Mary's place and were welcomed heartily by Mary who offered us a cup of tea and some lovely homemade treats. It was a great way to start what was a lovely stay in a gorgeous little place. Our room was small... More

We were so glad to find Mary Sexton's place. Small room but very comfy. Really comfy bed with lovely white sheets and good shower. Overlooked back garden which is full of flowers and birds. Within a few minutes walk to the town centre. Breakfasts were one of the best we'd had on our driving trip through Ireland, served in the... More

We recently traveled to Ireland using hotel points earned at Choice Hotels and Hilton's to book free rooms. In Galway we had no options so I got on TripAdvisor to find a place to stay. St. Martin's B&B seemed to be the place that would meet our needs because of its location and authenticity. We could not have been more... More

I have stayed with Mary 3 times and am looking forward to my 4th this Easter. The first couple of times were during the winter, and on coming back to the b&b, I found a hot water bottle in my bed warming it for me. Just what you need when away from home, is some place to come back to... More

I really don't know what to make of some of the recent negative reviews. My brother and I have stayed in a lot of B&B's and we LOVED this place. Unless you're a "five-star hotel" type, I expect you will find it equally delightful. 1. Location, location, location. St. Martin's B&B is situated on a quiet lane just steps away... More

We picked St Martins as we saw how close to the city centre it was by map. This was important to us, as we were not comfortable driving on the roads since we are used to driving on the right side of the road. Being so close to the city was great since we are keen on discovering the environments... More

We stayed at the St Martin's for one night during our trip to Ireland. The location and surrounding of the place are just awesome! You can't beat them! The landlady really is a character and we found her charming : she really tried to make ourselves feel at home and we had the most wonderful time at breakfast. The only... More

My husband and I don't understand how anyone could rate this place as anything other then horrible and disappointing. First of all the picture she has posted is very misleading. It gives the impression that this is the entrance, when in fact this is the back garden that you have to go through the house to get to and it... More
