Ramada by Wyndham Belfast City Centre
Clean room, comfortable bed. Had a room for 4 only negatives were very limited plug sockets for us all and no body wash in the shower. Lovely breakfast with loads of choice. Lovely staff. Ideal area with most attractions within walking distance. Would stay again.
