Room was basic which was expected and facilities were ok. Some more clarity around the additional £3 per room charge (for non-members of the YHA) would have been nice which is a fault of HostelWorld and not the hostel itself. Would try to claim this money back but it was in the small print (which nobody reads!). Sadly I won't be using Hostelworld again.

The receptionist charge us £3.50 extra because we didn't have the Hostel Card, and we didn't read it before in any webpage, so we were dissapointed.

For non YHA-members, there is an additional charge of 3 pounds each per night stay. Needs to pay for Wi-fi. Showering facility was much poorer than expected. The water flow was so small that it seemed like the world is undergoing some water rationing programme. It was so difficult to shower.

It's a nice little hostel. Nothing more. Nothing less. Good for a short stay in Liverpool (if you dont need much comfort). It's good for a weekend. But I wouldn't book there for a longer amount of time. Even if its nice people there and also a clean place. But comfort is a bit missing in hostels in general anyway.

A cheaper breakfast option than £5 would have gone down well! Rooms were very spacious - no walking into bunk beds in the dark. Rooms were warm. Beds comfortable enough Everything was clean Staff were exceptionally enthusiastic and helpful Free luggage room Taxi booking service Bit of a walk to the town 'Non-members must pay £3 extra - was not aware of this before reserving room Towel hire available at cost of £2 plus a £5 deposit - useful to have cash-or no shower! Shower was nice and hot

An absolutely fantastic hostel! It's got a great location, literally across the street from Albert Dock, walking distance from the Liverpool One shopping center, and walking distance from my personal favorite, The Cavern Club. There is always someone at the reception and everyone was friendly. The place was very very clean and well-stocked. Breakfast was under 5quid and it was a huge breakfast with everything included - eggs, sausage, bacon, hashbrowns, cereal, fruit, juice, coffee - big value!

Great location by Albert Dock, and only a short walk from city centre. Stayed in a 6 bed female en-suite dorm, was clean and duvets were warm. Nice touch was having individual outlets and lamps in each bunk for phone charging and reading. £5 continental breakfast in the morning was nice too, food was decent and can't really beat convenience of having breakfast in the hostel rather than walking around the city trying to find a place.

Rooms and beds were clean, so were the toilets and bath area. The Beatles pictures added a nice touch to the hostel. Location-wise, it's quite a walk from Lime Street Station, but really near the Docks. Distance to the city centre is about a 15min walk. The discount given for The Beatles Story museum made the stay totally worthwhile though!
