Budget friendly for getting a room and bathroom to yourself. The shower was incredibly cramped though so if you are on the bigger side I don't think it will work well for you. Facility and grounds were kept nicely but you do have to walk a bit or call for a taxi to get to places since it's a bit out of the way.

Great place for solo travelers- secure location

I went to Belfast for the weekend with the sole purpose of attending a music concert at Boucher Fields. Apart from going to the concert, I spent the whole of the time at the accommodation. Room was satisfactory, great to have wifi connectivity. Communal kitchen was spacious. However, there were no pots, pans, oven trays so not possible to cook properly. More importantly, there were no tea towels at all which was bizarre! Grateful there was tea, coffee and milk supplied. Overall a convenient place for solo travellers to stay. Thank you.

The Expedia online listing for this property shows pictures of a well stocked communal kitchen. They describe the kitchen as a “top family friendly amenity”. Marketed therefore as a well equipped self catering accommodation! Imagine my surprise when I arrived for a six night stay to find that whilst the kitchen had a kettle, a toaster, a microwave and a cooker, it completely lacked crockery, cutlery, saucepans or pans of any description. There wasn’t even a cup or a spoon to make a cup of tea never mind a meal. I raised the matter with reception who said Expedia know the kitchens are not equipped but that they have no control over how Expedia choose to market the accommodation. I sent an email to Expedia setting out all of the above. I received an automated reply saying they would get back to me within 24 hours. I am still waiting. Four days ago I messaged QUB asking for an explanation. Again I am still waiting. I think both Expedia and QUB are expecting me to go away and forget about it. Sadly, I am going to disappoint them in that regard.

Value for money - bed, kitchen, en-suite, breakfast, brilliant location for town and public transport, and no-fuss administration. Could have done with a means of mopping up the area around the shower.

Ett simpelt boende för den som inte är så kräsen. Enda dåliga var att vid två tillfällen när jag kom tillbaks till mitt rum så var det olåst. Jag hade garanterat låst det efter mig och det var alltså städerskorna som lämnat det olåst..
