Wellesley Avenue

The unit was very neat and tidy and it was in an excellent location of Belfast.

Location and quick reacting hosts.

The accommodation is no frills. To improve I would add some bottles of water because the water from the tap is gross. I know this is a Belfast issue not the hosts fault, but some bottled water would solve that. Shower gel & shampoo is not provided.

Clean and well kept apartment with great amenities. Buses into town or a walk in. The host was easy to get a hold of and accommodating. A great base for a girls trip.

Lovely apartment. Really clean and welcoming. Very well situated and a short walk to the city centre.

The location was very central and we were able to drive to the places we needed or walk. There was a Tesco Xpress in walking distance as well as eateries/ restaurants. There was a large laundry room with a washer and separate dryer. The overall size of the apartment was good The beds were comfortable for everyone The carpet area was relatively new. We did not realise that the security deposit could not be added to a credit card (our error) as we have done elsewhere in the world- this was the only property to require one in our month of rentals in Ireland, so read the fine print very carefully. [We did not have a pay pal account ( gave this away years ago due to fraud) nor the other option which we had never heard of.] So we were pleased that the host waved the security deposit for us.

Loads of maintenance issues throughout the flat : 1. a couple of the kitchen chairs were in need of repair or replacement as they couldn't be used. 2. Bathrooms: the main bathroom was broken as the shower had come apart and it looked as if several DIY attempts had been made to fix it .This was noticed when we arrived which we immediately contacted the host about and we were told there was no way to fix this as they were travelling as was their maintenance person. We were reduced to one shower which was literally a closet shower created at the end of the hall way where possibly a closet once was. This was not acceptable for 4 adults. The cleaner must have known as it would have been impossible to clean that shower with the hose not connected to the shower head. 3. The power point in the main bedroom on the right of the bed was falling out of the wall so we did not try to use this as we regarded this as a serious safety issue. 4. The linens on the main bed were stained and the towels were basically serviceable, just. ( I washed all of the towels and dried them for us to use) 5. The apartment was not clean as we found the remains/ rubbish left by previous guests in the kitchen, main bedroom and laundry. (I did take photos of all of these issues for reference) The hairdryer could not be used in a power point near a mirror No tea towels/ no cleaning sponge or similar and very basic kitchen implements-dishwasher had items in it and needed to be run. wifi was very spotty. The hot water was not great for 4 adults showering one after the other as it was not consistently hot after the first person showered -these were always very short showers The host did say they had phone numbers on the information, which they did, but we had 2 phones with sim cards for Ireland (as well as 2 on global roaming)and we could not get the phone numbers provided to work on any phone even when we went to a phone shop. So our communication regarding the shower was via text in the app.

In a great location

Internal door needed few attempts to lock

Lovely apartment! Very clean and very comfortable
