There was a welcome beverage we did not notice until we were leaving but some bottled water in our room to help us settle in. Plenty of amenities nearby and tips to navigate the city.

Room ok, was on the top floor, radiator was on full when we arrived, which was unbearable. The room is basic, but has what you need. The bed is comfy, shower decent, could do with more coat hangers if I am being picky.

Lovely room with tasteful, subdued lighting. I didn’t eat in the bar this time, but I do recommend Town Square for a bite to eat.

Clean room, simple online check in, offered a free beer because of self check-in, conveniently located for university, pubs and Ulster Museum. We were a family of 4 in 2 double beds. Plenty of space for everyone.
