We stayed here a few days ago for a night while in Belfast and were very impressed with not only the accommodations but the service as well. It's true, as written by another reviewer, that the host John is indeed a legend. He made our stay in Belfast very easy and enjoyable and we would definitely stay here again. Highly... More

This place was by far the best hostel I have stayed in. I've been travelling for an extensive period of time and have stayed in many good backpackers... but this one took it to another level! It is run by an experienced backpacker and he has thought of EVERYTHING! From kitchen being practically open 24 hours, to having a brand... More

It's nice to stay at a hostel that is run by a true backpacker! The manager John can do enough for you. The hostel is practically new, very clean and great location. Will definitely be back next time I'm in Belfast!

This is an amazing hostel, it's got everything you could want; a good location (a few mins walk from Queens uni and tesco and walkable to central Belfast too) FAB staff- John was amazing, and great facilities- I can't think of anything that's missing. If you stay here you wont be disappointed :)

This hostel is brilliant - comfy beds, decent showers, spacious communal areas and a well equipped kitchen, all kept spotless in a great location at a very reasonable price. However, the one thing that really completed our stay here was John - the nicest host you will ever meet. So friendly and welcoming, he couldn't do enough to help us.... More

A group of four of us stayed here for two nights over a weekend recently. The hostel was full to capacity but even then, the owner didn't charge us for a person who had dropped out at the last minute, which was incredibly kind of him. The rooms were absolutely lovely, nice, clean and bright with lots of space and... More

It´s a great hostel, I could actually say that one of the best hostels I´ve ever stayed in. Clean, tidy, very comfortable and located in the heart of the students ´quarter in Belfast. John, the guy in charge, is a very friendly fellow, always willing to help and make you feel home. Highly recommended!!

We spent a week in the hostel and the stay was very comfortable and succesful! The house was adeccuated to our needs and we were so happy because there is a Play Station and a big TV; the sofas were also very comfortable. The kitchen is a bit small but it works very well. The hostel was very clean. Everybody... More
