The lower half of the building is still under going refurbishment, which means you enter the building from the side. The room it s self was very clean with comfortable beds. We had our own bathroom but I am aware some rooms have shared facilities. These were modern and also very clean. The property is in Bootle but directly opposite the train station with a direct line to Liverpool every 15 minutes. We purchased a day ticket and travelled (10/15 minutes ride ) 3 times for £3.90. A taxi from Liverpool to the hotel cost a little over £10 Viv was very accomodating communicating via text. I would defiantly stay there again, although I would nt recommend to anyone who has difficulty with steps.

The owner provided required details for the entrance and the first floor doors. The key of the room was in the room doors. The room was a cold, we informed the owner, who immediately informed the hotel manager who turned on the heating. After 10 PM there were a few guests which were loud, within a few minutes time, the hotel manager set everything in order. My wife was sleeping and did not even hear that. We stayed here from Sat to Sun. We parked our car on the Trinity Rd, which was for free from Sat evening to Mon morning. The owner responds quickly to the messages and I would recommend this place, especially considering the price and location.
