Great place!
Pros:

Great location, within touching distance of lots of brilliant places to eat and drink, the sightseeing buses, Titanic Belfast etc.

Bathroom lovely, great lit mirror and wall in shower with lovely toiletries. Ironing board and hairdryer in the room too - and great to have some water in the fridge and Taytos.

Cons:

Not much to criticise! The Dirty Onion across the road was loud (you get earplugs) but cut off around 12/1am.
