Price was right and great location.
10PM lights-out curfew not enforced by staff... several drunk guests rolled in about 2AM and rambled on for a couple hours before I had to crawl out of bed and 'remind' them that the rest of us were trying to sleep. Spent next few hours waiting to be stabbed. Our room door was not secure - could easily be pryed open. Bathroom tile and grout broken and crumbling... to be expected in that price range, I suppose.

This is the place to stay if you're a solo backpacker! It's basically 2 student houses merged into ones. You have rooms and bathrooms on both sides of the place. There's a big kitchen with everything you need, as well as multiple fridges. It is kept clean throughout the day, the bathrooms also are cleaned all day. They have a lovely living room with sofas for watching TV and chilling. I was welcomed by Michael before my check in time. I could leave my bags and have a coffee. The duvets are so comfortable. They keep a room for solo female travellers when they can, so it was nice to be in with other girls only; felt very safe. It's about 15mins walking from the City Centre, but it's on top of the Botanic Gardens and Ulster museum which is worth a visit. They also give a good discount on the day tour to the Giants Causeway; it was actually cheaper than going by public transport. Lots of very friendly volunteers; I didn't enter the place without having multiple conversations. Also different wifis in different parts of the hostel, so the connection was always strong. It's really really a lovely lovely little place they have there. Some might say a bit rough around the edges, but for the price you pay, they've made it very cutesy. I'd stay there again.

Excellent location, good comfortable bed and clean and, if not basic, it was fine everything one needs for a short stay

Michael at the front was very nice
Bed, the mattress topper was quite filthy, not many powerpoints in the room making it tough to charge devices. Showers/toilets weren't cleaned, no consistent hot water, floor in the bathroom dirty.
