“Big Yellow Door in Belfast's Queens Quarter places you within walking distance of the city centre, offering comfortable rooms and a full kitchen. I noted some comments about inconsistent cleaning, which potential guests may want to consider; however, the flexible check-in and helpful host are definite advantages. A solid, budget-friendly option for exploring the city.”
