The hotel was clean and quite spacious, although a bit dated and in need of some TLC. It was good enough for a one-night stay. The rooms could do with a lick of paint on the internal doors as they were looking unloved but overall were clean and quite spacious. The service was friendly, especially with the gesture of carrying my luggage to the taxi. The location was convenient for accessing popular attractions and within walking distance of the city center. The dining experience could be better for the price paid. The hotel facilities were satisfactory.

The hotel is in a great location, within walking distance to virtually everything, but some areas need renovation. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, but they could use a full makeover while keeping the building's character. The service was incredibly welcoming and friendly, making the stay delightful. The dining experience was average, with room for improvement in the quality considering the additional cost. Overall a convenient stay, especially for a short visit.

The location is excellent, close to bars and shopping, but some areas need renovation. Just by the Mersey, it's easy to find despite little signage near the town center.
