Disappointing
The kitchen had pots and pans
There is functionally no air conditioning in the room. There is a constant humidity in the air, and regardless of opening the windows or not, it will.persist. I was told by a tenant that they were almost assaulted by the owner/manager because they had cracked the door open in the night to let the air circulate with how stale it was. The sheets are also not cleaned regularly; there were yellow and brown stains on my duvet and I absolutely did not use it.

After a previous hostel bailed on me at the last minute, Lagan Backpackers was in the same location and helped me out with a spare bed. Additionally, they allowed late sign-in, especially as my flight was delayed. They put a clipboard on a bed with my name so others would not take the allocated bed. They are great value-for-money.
Nothing that the hostel could help. Two of the fellow residents in my room were loud snorers but this goes with the territory.

Nothing
I had a very unpleasant experience at this hostel. I was alone in a 6-bed dorm and opened the door to create a draught and air out the room, to let some fresh air in. I left it open for just a few minutes while staying inside the whole time, and this provoked such aggression from the hostel manager that he flew into a rage and wanted to hit me. He shouted at me and threatened to throw me out immediately. He wouldn't even let me get a word in to ask why he was shouting at me like that and what I had done. All I did was let some fresh air into the room. He yelled that when he tells me to close the door, I have to do it, and that I have no right to air out the room. I don't know if he was having a bad day and took his frustration out on me, but in my opinion this is unacceptable, and I would warn everyone about this unstable person. He sees nothing wrong with shouting at guests and being aggressive. The standard of the hostel is very poor. In the shower, for example, you get either cold water or very hot water, so it's impossible to wash. The water pressure is very weak. One of the worst hostels I've ever stayed in. I don't recommend it.

The staff, particularly Michael, was outstanding and really went above and beyond to help and give advice. I would give 15 stars if it were all about him!
It was a 30 min walk to the big tourist location like the cathedral Quarter and the Titanic museum. Everything just seemed kind of old there as well like an update would be needed.
