Good value, could be cleaner
Pretty happy overall with the hostel. Great value, comfy bed and all the essentials - toiletries, charging ports etc. the room wasn’t super clean and there was no extractor fan in the bathroom which made the room quite smelly and damp!
Quite disappointed in breakfast - £6.50 for a takeaway breakfast with barista coffee. I was happy with the vegan options but the apple was wrinkly and old, and the ‘barista’ coffee advertised was actually just the free instant coffee available to everyone. Would’ve rather gone elsewhere for breakfast.
Overall a good stay, well located, cheap and cheerful
The hotel is in great city centre location. The bed was very comfortable and the hotel was very clean. The staff made us very welcome and do a great job. The live entertainment was good.
We got this room as a last minute decision, great price and the comfiest bed I've ever slept in! Spacious room and great facilities. Even has wireless charging

For the price it was fine for what I needed for a brief stay
Stayed here a few times. Good atmosphere, friendly staff, great location. Had an issue with the TV not working on our last stay, apparently this is an issue across the hotel so would not recommend if a TV is a must for you. I was staying with my young daughter and the gent on duty (didn't get his name unfortunately but he was fantastic!) got us sorted in the end.
It's a typical hostel. Doesn't have kitchen facilities but does food (small menu but very tasty) and there's plenty of bars and restaurants in the city centre, just a short walk away. The bar area is great, and good beers on tap.

Disliked: Amenities
One of the nights I shared the room with some unpleasant people that ruined my stay. One of them took my drink bottle while I was sleeping and used it for alcohol. I get sometimes these types of people come along but it ruined my stay.
The bathroom is also small and entirely plastic so after a shower the floor is wet with condensation then will get muddy from people going in with shoes on because they don’t want wet feet.
I had stayed at Kabanas in Liverpool previously and that was very good. So I knew what to expect.
There was nothing that was unpleasant, and will look for a Kabanas in my travels elsewhere in the coming months.
Clean and comfortable beds.
Kind and helpful staffs.
Good location.
Family and group friendly.
What else do you need for this inexpensive accommodation option!
