SamanthaofHodorsfield Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 No, the place really is that bad. lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-MerlyN- Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 Thats what I thought from the reviews at hostelworld. Changed my bookings, too. Am now staying at Windermere Guesthouse. The thought of a multibedroom dorm wasnt that appealing after all... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
williamjm Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 Is that a ginger joke...... or is the place as bad as that!No matter, I'm not staying there any more.A few of us stayed there at the time of the first Belfast meet (around the time the original pilot was filming). It took some persuading but eventually they did agree to move us to a room which didn't have a broken window in it. I think that sums up the place quite well.

SamanthaofHodorsfield Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Airports usually advise 2 hours, in order to get through security. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Padraig Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Does anyone know how long you should be at Dublin airport before a flight? 1 hour, 2 hours?Yes. If you are not familiar with an airport, best leave 2 hours. You should have no issues then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steinman Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Arriving in Dublin at 1335 on Friday and if I'm very lucky I'm in Belfast 2 hours later, otherwise I'm there 1630. After checking in I guess I'll hang around the Europa Hotel and attempting to find out what I'm supposed to do at the Con on Saturday :)Staying at the Days hotel.Leaving on Monday at 0900 for Dublin.

Targh Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Arriving with JonpoT at Belfast City at 17:50 on thursday. Can't remember which hotel we're in... think it was the one with the discount for the con. Leaving monday around 2pm, annoyingly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
williamjm Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 IIRC both Robbinsons and the Crown are just outside the Europa, the crown is really wierd given that your all in cubicales with doors that hide you from people trying to find you. Its someone you may want to go for the experiance, but not a god place to meet people arriving at different times.I do remember that about the Crown as well, it was a nice place but not the easiest to see where people are. Maybe Robinson's would be a best choice for meeting for those us who arrive on Thursday afternoon/early evening. I'm not sure when the volunteers meeting is going to be, but I guess it'll be a bit later in the evening? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peadar Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 I'm using this thread, because I'm particularly interested in people arriving on Thursday, or who already live in Belfast. Mods, please feel free to strike me blind.Would any of our British contingent be able to do me a favour? I am looking for a UK pay-as-you-go normal-sized SIM card. Would somebody be able to buy me one with £10 credit on it? I will pay you back when I arrive up on Friday night. I lost the one I had previously and I just don't think I'll have time to find an O2 shop on Saturday.Thanks ever so very much if somebody can do it. Please reply here if you can to avoid duplication. :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deleted01 Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 I'm probably arriving too late on Friday to get one there, but I can buy one here before I leave if no one else can do it :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
