Mill House, Belfast City Centre

Small but efficient unit with kitchen and nice sitting area. Short walk to restaurants & pubs.

Instructions for using oven missing. Turns out it was a switch needed to be turned on but wasted 20 minutes figuring that out. For elderly or handicapped 2 flights of stairs including 1 to bath may be a problem.

Location

Very small for large/tall people. Back yard was very dirty.

This was a small 2 up 2 down but perfect for us. There was parking right outside the front, it was a quiet cul-de-sac. Just across the road was the main road into all the shops, bars etc there were food shops close by too and a great location all round. The house was clean and towels were provided so we were happy.

The main bedroom was a great size. the second bedroom was double but was a squeeze but again we managed. If you have someone who isn't great with stairs then this isn't for you as it is split level with the bathroom being either up or down the stairs.

Very fast to respond and help when we had an issue with the electric meter beeping, so it wasn't a problem at all. The location is great, a short walk into the city centre along main roads, so felt safe as an all-female group. Good shower, comfy beds and a nice seating area to watch tv. Netflix, etc. also included.

We were confused by the parking situation. It says free on street parking available outside the house. However, there were cones blocking off all the parking spaces on the street. We got out and moved one to use a space but didn't know if someone was going to have a go at us about that. We didn't want to move the car once we had the space, and were often blocked in by cars parking alongside us on the road anyway. Nit much room at the foot of the bed in the smaller room if you want to go the the bathroom during the night. Taking the big mirror off the wall would help, though, as it's very easy to bash into it in the dark.

Excellent hosts and property.

Location to town

Shower very slippery needs a mat in shower or stickers

Great location and very comfortable, clean accommodations that made me feel very at home. We were a stone's throw from city center (where we made fast friends at Kelly's Cellars and Madden's), but the block where we stayed was quiet and residential. We only stayed for a single night, but this would have been a perfect spot to use as a lily pad to explore the city and surrounding areas during a longer stay. The rooms and shower were great, and the kitchen would have been perfect for cooking at home to save a buck. On street parking was easy. The hosts were very communicative (via email), provided clear instructions for getting into the unit, and included some links for food/entertainment that were very thorough and thoughtful. No notes--fabulous spot and would recommend!

I had a moment or two of confusion about how to lock the front door when we left for the day, but I chalk this up to my ignorance as an American about the normal operation of UK/EU door locks. Pulling up on the handle after turning the key in the deadbolt is standard when locking a door (I learned), but it was not something I knew before I this trip. No fault on the hosts whatsoever, but I include this for any Americans who are traveling to the area for the first time to save any confusion.

It was a lovely house and very clean and tidy very easy to deal with staff and overall an amazing stay, not a far walk or drive to the town either lovely place!
