My mate and I tried to check-in before walking to the match, but being too early, we were offered a locker. After the match, we're tired, we just want to go to bed - and the woman behind the desk starts insisting on picture ID - and wouldn't even let us into our locker before ID'ing us. A) we were never warned that this was a requirement. Then B) she wouldn't accept my 60+ oyster card picture verification. Despite having a bank card and a number of credit cards, she still wouldn't accept my oyster card picture (which was recent, I'd only turned 60 2 weeks ago). Neither of us were carrying a license or a passport, we'd only traveled from London by train. Eventually, I found a medical card which she accepted - but this was after frustratingly long 20 minutes. She was wholly and utterly unreasonable and indeed, the request for photo ID was as well. Visitors beware.

Very convenient location for city centre attractions, very walkable. Affordable public car park directly across the road. Facilities fairly basic but very clean and staff are very friendly and helpful. Overall recommended for a more affordable stay than some of the city hotels!

I’ve stayed here before and really liked it. This time, the room was awful: the heating was broken so the radiator made a noise all night, there was no hot water, the electrics on the beds didn’t work, the toilet was dirty and unpleasant, and the staff were ignorant (except for the lovely Spanish lady). The curtain rails on the beds kept falling off when you got out of bed and woke everyone up in the middle of the night. And the beer was ridiculously gassy - to be fair the beer was awful last time too. We were told to walk down the corridor to the lift to get to the fifth floor, only to be told by another member of staff that there was no lift. We come to Liverpool a lot but we will not be back here. Especially when we can stay in a hotel for less (and get towels).

Stayed for one night last night and i was that cold i slept in my clothes. Noted fan heaters were left outside peoples rooms along the corridor but not ours. No heating at all in our rooms and rooms are singke glazed. Told reception on checkout but were indifferent. Lift wasnt working so we had 4 flights of stairs to walk up with luggage despite reception at check in saying “ you are on the 4th floor, go through the double doors and the lift is on the right”. No offer of breakfast on check in and no drinks facility noted or situated in the room. Room was clean but the bed wasnt made, the bottom sheet was on the end of the bed and the mattress had the cover protector on with the quilt thrown over. Bathroom was clean with the exception of the door which is in need of a clean as marks all over it. Had to call for internet access details as not given at check or in the room. No fire escape instructions in the room or noted in the corridor. Room was situated at the rear of the property with considerable noise above all night of some sort of “droning noise”. Reception staff did endeavour to help with our ev and parking enquiry on check in. Overall there is room for considerable improvement here and be honest with your heating issues. I would be unlikely to stay again.
