Excellent location, friendly team

Fantastic location, easy access to transport, restaurants and shopping. The staff are really lovely and helpful and friendly (like everyone we met in Liverpool!) it’s a great big old house and full of character, and we booked a ‘spacious room’ which was indeed spacious and comfortable, with a huge bed (very comfy). Although on top floor (stairs, no lift), there was nothing in the way of view - just brick walls - and the decor (dark grey paint/black wallpaper with colour floral pattern and mostly black carpet) made the room feel somewhat dark. Skylight in bathroom helped. Shower fabulous. Very tired looking grout/sealant in shower area (grimy and mouldy), and generally furniture tired, chipped, a bit on the shabby side. A lot of scuffed paintwork etc. no fridge in room but reception happy to let us use theirs. We had a great stay overall, just suggest a bit of a refresh.

Lock&Key Liverpool

We stayed two nights in a very spacious room at this small hotel. It is in an ideal location being very close to Liverpool1 and Albert dock area. Also only a short walk to the two cathedrals. The staff were friendly and helpful and a broken shower was fixed quickly but the faulty tv proved more difficult. There is no dining room but a small Italian restaurant is attached, which had a basic breakfast menu. Not a good place if you have mobility issues as there are a few steep steps to the entrance and no lift inside. Would stay again.

What to say ! We payed over the odds as it was Grand National weekend but I still expected more, the hotel, is in a great location, the staff were really helpful and Friendly but that's the only positives The bed sheets were stained, the hairdryer is useless, make sure you take your own, no glasses in the room for a drink of water, the room was very warm but the fan outside the window meant we had to keep in shut, no AC. We had no house keeping, we were brought fresh towels and cups when I asked. The remote for the TV was broken. No working fans in the bathroom

Staff lovely. Cold room. No natural light. Tiny sink. Nowhere to put our clothes other than hanging up. One chair. Didn’t look anything like photos. Not Worthing to have been listed on Sunday times as a good place to stay. Breakfast confusing, not given appropriate information.

The hotel is in a great location, everything you'd need around you. Great option for a short break in Liverpool. Room was lovely and warm slept soundly in the bed. WiFi was patchy at best, though we weren't in the room that long to use it to sky great extent. Extra mention for the staff. Meg, who checked us in, Pat, security man and the lovely cleaner that saw us in the morning were all fantastic and a credit to the hotel.

Disappointment

Very disappointing stay. Kept up due to noise all night; left at 5am. Shower was unusable as the temperature control was broken. Bed very uncomfortable. Emailed the hotel several times asking to discuss but never got a reply so I am afraid I am left with no choice but to post this review. Staff were very friendly to be fair.

Outdated photos on Hotels.com

The photos of the hotel are outdated. Kitchen/bar not open. All the windows were dirty. Lots of dust on the window frames. Room quite spartan. Hardly any decor (1 picture on the wall). Stayed on top floor. Boxed in by other buildings hence no view. The positives: staff are very kind & helpful. Their service is excellent
