			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Danny Hamilton (our new Deputy Manager in Barnacles Quay Street Hostel in Galway) in a nutshell:</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">I am from Dublin and am 100% Irish except when the sun shines and I claim to be part Brazilian (you should see me with a football <img src='http://barnacles.ie/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  )</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">I have been 27 for 5 years now and plan to be for the foreseeable future.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">I have travelled all over the world and can even remember a small portion of it.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">I have lived in England, Scotland, Spain, Luxembourg, Cuba and Australia, working in bars, bricklaying, plumbing, orange picking, on pub crawls, football commentating, small parts in movies (two), tour guiding and now finally I have settled on hostel management&#8230;</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">I’m split on the favourite places between stunning country that is Croatia and the electricity of the life in Cuba.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">The best hostel I have stayed in is the Glebe Village hostel in Sydney, such a nice place.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">Interesting fact, I once told Cheryl Crow (pretty famous) that I hope she makes it as a singer someday, having no idea who she was when meeting her in the Quay&#8217;s bar right across from the hostel <img src='http://barnacles.ie/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_sad.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>(We will need to snoop around to find those movies, right???)</p>
<p>Book Barnacles <a title="Barnacles Hostel Galway" href="http://barnacles.ie/" target="_blank">Hostel in Galway</a>!</p>
<p>If you prefer to stay in Dublin, Book <a title="Book Barnacles Temple Bar House" href="http://barnacles.ie/" target="_blank">Barnacles Temple Bar House</a>!</p>
<p>Or, book both and get discount! <img src='http://barnacles.ie/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />   Because we love ya!</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>It&#8217;s not that we don&#8217;t enjoy dragging ourselves to the same ol&#8217; bars every weekend, having the same ol&#8217; conversations with the same ol&#8217; people. It&#8217;s just that we can&#8217;t help but feel that somewhere out there, everyone else is having much better craic than we are.</p>

<p>Galway is the bohemian capital of Ireland, a buzzing and creative city with plenty of lively bars, quirky cafes and trendy boutiques dotted along its colourful network of cobbled streets. And there&#8217;s no better base to explore the best of what Galway has to offer than from Barnacles Hostel.</p>
<p>Barnacles is at the heart of the action on charming Quay Street.  It&#8217;s one of Ireland&#8217;s most popular hostels, renowned for its party atmosphere, with a host of superb facilities and activities. The comfortable dorms and private rooms are sparkling clean with the added comfort of ensuite bathrooms.</p>
<p>You&#8217;ll also have the chance to meet plenty of new faces in the hostel&#8217;s cheerful common room. It&#8217;s the perfect place to get a group together for a pub crawl or simply a place to swap the banter or chill out with board games and DVDs.</p>
<p>The spectacular Cliffs of Moher tour includes transport and admission. You&#8217;ll have the chance to behold one of Ireland&#8217;s great natural wonders with the cool spray of the Atlantic Ocean re-energising and awakening even the most bleary-eyed and sleep-deprived party animal.</p>
<p>So that&#8217;s everything wrapped up nicely &#8211; we may not have the monkey but we&#8217;ve taken care of everything else.</p>

<h3>Reviews</h3>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>&#8220;What a fantastic hostel! Defs recommend to anyone travelling through lovely Galway. The staff are amazing and helpful, the Australian receptionist was a real gem. Top notch.&#8221;</p>
<p>Anonymous 21/03/2012 Hostelworld</p>
<p>&#8221;Such an amazing hostel! Loved having a locker beneath my bed. Staff were suuuuuper helpful. Location couldn&#8217;t be better, on &#8220;shop street&#8221; and right near the water. Rooms and bathrooms were beautiful and clean (both the 12-bed and 6 -bed). Also, kitchen and common room were pretty! Safe, clean, awesome. My favourite hostel that I&#8217;ve stayed at so far!&#8221;</p>
