bed and breakfasts

Does anyone have a suggestion of a good place to review bed and breakfasts in different towns/cities? Does anyone have a b and b they would recommend in Dublin and Galway? We are looking for something that is moderately priced. Thanks.

What exactly do you mean by "moderate" and who/how many is "we"?

Tripadvisor is great. Based on their recommendations, I am staying at Ariel House in Dublin and Marless House in Galway. They are top TA choices, but I'll report back in October!!!

I prefer booking.com for reviews, because they accept reviews only from people who have booked through them. That means that there are fewer spurious reviews posted by the establishment or friends of the proprietor, or by competitors or disgruntled former employees.

Granted, it was several years ago but Marless House was fantastic. The breakfasts are awesome!

I agree about TripAdvisor. Booked Shantalla Lodge for next week, Ariel house was also considered. From TA you can book via a few sites that are displayed alongside the hotel/B&B/hostel that you are considering.
