Super awesome staff. Friendly with such a cool pub right next to the lobby. Short walk to train that takes you into Belfast. Easy parking close by for free. Only down side was room booked was small as was the bathroom. But good size room if traveling with family as it would be good for the kids. Still would stay here again
