A little gem.
Good instructions for key pick up for early check-in. Room larger than expected. Bed very comfortable but could have done with plumper pillows. Bathroom a bit tired looking but was clean. Breakfast served next morning cooked breakfast available to order. Friendly owner and staff. Free wifi.

disappointing
The young women who staffed the place were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast they put together was very good. unfortunately the owner has not kept this place up. The carpets throughout were filthy, peeling wallpaper in places, water stains on the ceilings, old hard mattress on the bed. The shower was moldy and there was other people's hair on the shower walls.....eeew. Obviously the shower had not been cleaned. I had to toss the blankets from the bed on the flooer be ause they were not clean...stained and had hair on them. This place was one of the worst we have ever stayed in for cleanliness and appearance.

My overnight stay in Belfast for Joan Baez Concert
I found it very good overall, and the female receptionist had a nice cheerful smile and was very friendly, I definitely would consider going back there should I return to Belfast any time in near future, the only thing which bothered me a little I found the single bed not that comfortable like it needed a new mattress,and also I felt a little warner in the room than I would have wished, but certainly I would consider going back there again, it was a very short stay, just the one night but the breakfast I enjoyed and found the staff again very considerate and attentive to any thing you might need. Yes I enjoyed my stay there. The cleanliness of the place was certainly good and it was easy to get a Taxi from there to the Concert I went to that night .

Disappointing
Poorly maintained, for sale sign up outside, couldn't get in at check-in time without calling a number on a piece of paper on the door. Noisy, squeaky door room not well decorated. Wont stay there again. On the plus side the sheets and towels were clean, breakfast adequate.

Pleasant surprise
I didn't expect much, since it's a "guest house" and not a hotel - I was pleasantly surprised how clean and cozy the room was. The staff was helpful, the breakfast was awesome and the location was perfect. Walking distance to everything we wanted to see.

We were able to book for an extra night, which was great. Lovely breakfasts . Able to walk into city, also close to buses- were picked up outside hotel by bus for day tour. Stairs - a bit of a hassle for older people with heavy bags.

Great Breakfast and Location
Staff was very courteous and helpful. Breakfast was excellent US B&Bs could learn much from their European counterparts. There were problems with lack of hot water and nonworking lights. Recommend you request not to be in room 5 - right by the shared bath and is noisy when you are trying to sleep.

Guest house in Belfast
Reasonably priced hostel with friendly staff. The bed was comfortable. The curtains were pretty dirty at the bottom and the comforter had stains on it. Shared bathroom. We removed it right away. Water cooker in the room for coffee and tea. Light above sink didn't work. No power outlets to charge our phones, glad I brought a power bank.

It need of a lot of TLC
The room and bathroom are old and badly need a good clean and maintenance. The tv didn't work, the bed very old and uncomfortable and the carpets filthy. Breakfast was good , staff friendly and parking was available on a side street. Very close to the Queens College and places to buy / eat food. It is difficult for us to recommend this guesthouse as a place to stay.

The Pearl Court was our first B & B and it was amazing! The staff were super friendly and always eager to help us! The B & B is at a good walking distance to the city center but we enjoyd it since it gave us the opportunity to see Belfast! I highly recommend it if you wish to stay in Belfast! Plus the accommodations are really pretty!

Not very good service
My husband and I stayed for two nights only. The bedding had dirty brown stains on it. When we went for breakfast, we were the first to sit down followed by two couples ten minutes later. Both couples were served tea and hot breakfast before we were acknowledged for a cup of tea. The second day was a little better but again we were waited on last. Breakfast was average and after taking our order we still got what we hadn't asked for. The rooms are outdated but comfortable for a short stay of one of two nights for the price.

Amazing Stay
The accommodations where clean and I really appreciated the added touch of coffee and tea. In the mornings the staff provided an excellent continental breakfast or your choice of a hot breakfast which was delicious. I also found it extremely easy to check-in after check in hours as the staff provided very clear instructions.

Badly advertised by wotif
The bathrooms were very grotty & unclean & one of the beds in our room was bowed & useless. No mention or photos of multiple flights of narrow, irregular stairs & NO staff assistance with luggage. There was only 1 lady there trying to run everything & it was hard to find a time to speak with her. She complained that this happens a lot because of wotif advertising. She had one gentleman phone to confirm his booking & check that it was wheelchair friendly (as in his search!). If you're young, fit & healthy & only have a small suitcase, it's fine. If you have a lot of luggage or are older or have any health or mobility issues, give it a big miss.

Short stay in Belfast
The staff were extremely nice and helpful, the room was right for our (my wife and I) needs, and breakfasts were good and copious. The only negative is about bathrooms and showers. There were only two for about 8 rooms. I think two rooms had their private bathroom. We had to go down and up 27 steps to use the toilet at night. The first night I had difficulty turning off the shower. I then found out that I had to turn on and off a button "outside" the bathroom. At some point, even the button outside one bathroom didn't work. I must say however that I never had to wait to use the bathroom. Personally I see this as minor quibbles, considering the location, the quality to price ratio and the well above average warm hospitality provided by the staff.

On main bus routes, great location.
Stayed one night and left for Dublin the next evening. It was easy to catch the bus from a few doors away. I was able to leave my luggage there for the day while I toured Belfast. The Ulster Museum and Botanical Gardens were just around the corner. The guesthouse was very comfortable. I really liked my little room and didn't mind sharing the shower and toilet. Very clean. I enjoyed the lounge in the evening. I was a bit surprised that my room was up 40 steps, but it was not a big problem. The breakfast was excellent. There were many good places to eat nearby. I walked over to Lisburn Road and ate at a wonderful Italian restaurant. To get to the Central Train Station, I had to take the bus to City Hall and transfer to another bus across the road. Easy to do with a suitcase. I enjoyed Belfast.
