A convenient place to stay for a night for an early afternoon boarding of the cruise ship.
Pros:

Friendly staff and good service. Reasonably priced food. Decent choice of beers.

Cons:

The large hot water tank in the cupboard in the bedroom made the room quite warm and the window had a restrainer on so could only be opened a modest amount.

Within easy access to the airport
Pros:

The service from staff was excellent. The bed was spacious and had an en-suite. Clean towels in the bathroom. Hospitality tray available. Good proximity to the airport. Entertainment provided. Could have booked dinner if needed but had already eaten. Good choice of drinks at the bar.

Cons:

The room was too hot and noisy. Not sure if room 1 is over the kitchen? You could also hear the occupants of the next room. Whilst the room was en-suite there wasn't a great deal of space. Rate included breakfast but couldn't have because had to leave early to catch a flight. Perhaps a grab and go option or even a takeaway coffee and biscuits would have been a nice touch.

Great value pub overnight. Thank you all.
Pros:

Very friendly and helpful staff. Great value for money. Beautiful pint of Pedigree. Wonderful vibe, felt like a real pub for the locals.

Cons:

The Pedigree ran out after only one pint, I was gutted. I’m not a fan of GB news which seemed to be on a lot to n the tv in the bar.

Prima verblijf om Liverpool te verkennen
Pros:

Vriendelijkheid van het persoon

Cons:

Eerste dag wel keuze uit verschillende eigerechten maar na de bestelling bleek dat er geen eieren waren. Dat mag toch niet gebeuren bij een hotel

Decent, with potential to be outstanding
Pros:

Location.
Breakfast
Morning staff

Cons:

Only 1 electrical outlet in room (5)
Had to request room turnover ( towels, teabags) each day
The door was stuck/ malpositioned and needed force to open or close
The night staff in the bar all young kids...so when families with children running all around the pub , the staff did not have the experience or authority to tell parents to keep their children under control

Would not recommend anyone to visit this property. Needs massive refurbishment
Pros:

The bedroom linen was clean, the bathroom sink and toilet were clean.

Cons:

Most surfaces were dirty and greasy. The bathroom plumbing was very noisy. Grouting in shower was poor. The whole fabric of the building was extremely shoddy. Public areas were disgusting
