I've stayed in over 20 hostels around the world, and this is by far the best. Excellent, clean hostel, with fantastic staff and facilities. Would definitely book again! I stayed over a weekend and got to know everyone in the hostel effortlessly. Staff are always encouraging you to socialise with other travellers. A large kitchen and social area, were equip well and even in the cold Belfast weather, you could stay all day inside the hostel and never get bored. Well worth a visit.

Really cool place. The kitchen is great and everything is super neat. The hostel is near the university and tones of place to eat. All the staff members are awesome and of good advice on what to do in Belfast (special props to Brett, who got my lost IPod back).

Could not have asked for any more. Perfect hostel. Good kitchen, rooms, shower, common room with games, Xbox and anything else you can think of. Beds where comfy, and plenty of space. Out door area perfect for hanging out and meeting new people. Close to shops and all of the good bars. Cheers to the manger and staff Foxy and Brett who are making this place what it is. Wish I could of stayed longer!

The best hostel I've been to! Great facilities (bathrooms in particular very clean and private) and the staff are great. Super helpful and they have something going on there pretty much every night. Only thing to take note of would be that the music is very loud if you're trying to get to sleep early.

The staff were great and the hostel was easy to get to. They helped me out SO MUCH when my debit card was eaten by an ATM machine. What could have been a stressful, vacation ruining trip was relaxing and fun due to the staff being more than helpful and generous. If I'm back in Belfast I'll definitely stay with them again!
