Whether you’re here for work, a football game or on a cultural trip to Belfast, this minimal but practical spot is a good place to call home. Though simplistic in its design, there are all the necessary mod-cons you could need – a well-equipped kitchen, a cosy living room and a comfortable master bedroom (we think the bunks in the second bedroom are best suited to children). You’ll find the Ulster Museum and a host of restaurants nearby, though if you’re seeking more variety, you’re just 3 miles from the city centre.

Home truths:
*This home is spread over two floors, with no internal lift – it may not be suitable for those with limited mobility
*The décor here is on the simpler side and the aesthetics are not up to Plum Guide's usual standards – we've made an exception to let this one into the collection on account of its great location
*Parties are not permitted here
*We think the bunk beds in the second bedroom are best suited to children
*The dining table doubles up as a laptop-friendly workstation
*Guests can self check-in with a lockbox
