I stayed in a 6-bed room for females, though the room was almost full I had a comfortable sleep and had enough air. The bathrooms are definitely not luxury (smaller one on the 2nd floor would benefit form having a shelf), but overall impression is good. The hostel feels very comfortable from inside, I liked all the art on the wall, pillows on sofas and the breakfast was nice too.

I would prefer the breakfast food to be clearly marked (if vegan, gluten free etc.). During the cleaning hours it is hard to find a quiet spot in the hostel (vacuum cleaner, open windows, cleaning of toilets and bathrooms).

felt like a cozy, lived-in home. Was greeted and invited to hang out with the staff and other guests. Easy to check-in and never had to wait for the bathroom or shower. Great water pressure!! This place seems to attract really cool travelers who are interested in making friends/having a fun time together

I guess just the small lockers (BYO standard size lock; small locks won’t work), but there was plenty of space under the bottom bunks to store suitcases etc

Very much a backpackers/travellers type hostel. I came to Belfast for other reasons and couldn’t afford the proper hotel all my friends were in so booked this hostel and for the price it was good, not particularly my vibe but for the targeted audience I’m sure it’s amazing

Lots of black mold spores about. Also no dairy free breakfast alternatives. I bought a carton of oat milk for one cup of tea, then left it there so I hope someone got use from it, no dairy free spread (often cheaper and nicer) not worth risking my allergies. Also bought shampoo that I then left there for someone else in the future. “Concierge” didn’t remember to give me my £10 deposit back.

It was home like stay with common kitchen, lounge, dining table, television etc. There are books & guitars to spare time in the hostel. You are allowed to prepare your own food, can use shared fridge and gas stove. The staff are friendly and very casual. Bathroom facilities are good, bathrooms are there in ground floor and third floor so no wait time while using it in morning.

I stayed in 6 person dormitory, sometimes my sleep was disturbed by snoring folks, noisy door. As it’s bunk bed when person sleeping in the upper bed turns I could feel my bed shaking which also wake me up sometimes.

The hostel is exactly what I would expect and hope for in a hostel. The facilities are rather "loved", aka somewhat worn and the breakfast is limited (as they tell you from the start), but you have what you need and the atmosphere is fantastic. I felt like I was staying with a bunch of friends who kindly let us random strangers stay with them for a few nights.

The stairs and floors creak, so if you're a light sleeper, you may be easily woken by people coming in and out; however, there were free earplugs at check-in. Wholemeal/wheat bread would be a nice addition to breakfast.

Bedroom was adequate in size. Sufficient kitchen supplies. Breakfast composed of bread, cereal, milk, margarine, jam, nutella. Decent size living room. Close to Botanic train station. Free luggage storage before check-in, after check-out. There is outdoor sitting area.

Living room, bathroom area on the first floor always cold. Small kitchen relative to the hostel capacity; one can be on the top of the other after 6 PM. There is a wood stove next to kitchen table where people congregate and block access to the kitchen, since it is the warmest spot on the floor. Breakfast starts at 8:30 AM, which is pretty late. The two desktop computers have outdated software, they are essentially useless ( and neglected).

Everything! The people working at the hostel were super welcoming and kind, the room was very nice and comfortable. They had a lot of common areas where people were regularly hanging out which is a great way to meet new people. Lots of showers which if you've stayed at a smaller hostel like this before can be a bit of a challenge.

I think the bathrooms could use a bit of a refresh but they were certainly satisfactory. The only other thing would be storage. They provide bins for under the beds to put your things and small lockers for important items to be locked away but I would personally prefer a locker to put all of my items in.

Amazing value for what's almost a hotel room. Even with shared bathrooms, it's miles ahead of hostels or B&Bs, which can be much more expensive. Everything was very clean and the rooms had all the amenities you would expect from a proper hotel room of the same size. Location was a short tram trip from city center, so getting there or taking the train to neighboring cities like Birmingham was no trouble.

It was hard to get a hold of staff if something went wrong; all the phone numbers left at the property didn't seem to work, so email was the only option. They did respond to email fairly quickly, at least. Mattresses are fine, but would really benefit from some sort of pad on top- they were a bit hard.

Well maintained cleaning and puntualilty in checkIn. Nice reception space to keep luggage and hang jackets etc. Chill out room is best place to connect with other travellers and had TV and fire place with confy sofa and extra blankets I liked the kitchen arrangement and labeling system and how everyone kept it clean after using the dishes. Splecial Thanks to ths staff member Clayton for amazing help and service during the hostel stay. He helped in amswering all my queries and provied extra blanket if i was more cold as my bed was near window. He also cleaned bathrooms very hygeynic way all the days. He was was very patient if someone was using the washroom during cleaning hours. He is nice person also informed about for pub parties which was open to all histellers and staff members. Also shout out to coolest staff member Charlie kolloshe who showed me around the hostel and explained few hostel rules to begin with. Also helped in closing the window in middle of the night as it was jammed at one end. She is vedy friendly and attentive. I liked eating bread and variety of jam and nuttlea spread for breakfast along with other hostellers and staff while sharing travel and life stories I also made few buddies from different region of the world thanks to Vagabonds hostel stay

Could provide more breakfast option like cheese spread , chocos , fruits ,jucies As somedays travellers may go for long tours early in morning heavy breakfast will add the worth for paying self service breakfast.

About a 15-min walk from the bus station & another 15 min to the City Hall. The Vagabond is a great place to meet other travellers -- it's very cozy. Offers a basic breakfast & coffee all day. The dorm bedrooms are a bit small, but manageable for short-term. Locker space. Friendly staff who gave great suggestions of which pubs to visit! A very enjoyable stay! Kitchen where you can prepare food, if you are that way inclined. Safe enough area. I stayed here because of going to the Ulster Museum.

Because of how the bathrooms are located in the Hostel, there can be a line-up if you don't plan properly in the morning. The beds were a bit squeaky, but I had ear-plugs. The dorm rooms can be a bit small. Remember to ask for your key "refund" the evening before, if you have an early flight out. Suited me just fine, otherwise!
