Great location and friendly staff
Pros:

Great location - only 10/15 min walk and we were in the city centre. This hotel is self check in but there were staff all around to answer any questions we had. Check in took 2 minutes - very straight forward. We had to walk 58 steps (yes I counted every time :)) to get to our room but the room was very comfortable and clean. We ate breakfast in the bar which was delicious and I'd definitely stay here again.

Cons:

There is no parking - which we did know about - but the car parks are few and far between and we had to leave our car down the end of a public street which I wasnt very keen on.

Pros:

I liked the bathroom, specially the shower.

Cons:

Furniture in the photos were newer. There was just 2 channels on the tv. The window view was odd… to a roof and to a garbage disposal, I think someone was throwing garbage from an upper floor (the noise was loud) missing the disposal and landing just on the room’s view. Pick another room and you’ll be ok.

Becoming our go-to for Belfast
Pros:

Second time staying here. There's a super easy self check in service, rewarding you with free beers. The room was clean, comfortable, and nicely decorated. The Botanic area is also a lovely spot with nice cafes/bars.

Pros:

Wirklich gute Unterkunft mit gutem Preis-Leistungsverhältnis..Self Check-in war in unserem Fall total einfach und reibungslos. das Zimmer war sehr ruhig und um die Unterkunft findet man ausreichend Parkplätze, die zwischen frühen Abend und 8 Uhr morgen kostenfrei sind. Fußläufig ist man in ca 15 Minuten in der Innenstadt. Wir waren durchweg zufrieden.
