The hotel had no food or breakfast options. There were no shampp or shower gel and the shower leaked all.over the floor and into the carpet. Was a mouldy smell all night..

Good value for one night

This place is good for a pitstop / one night or so. Check in staff were lovely, hotel & room were nice and warm in the winter. As a solo female traveller, the hotel also felt very safe. My room was good for the price, but a couple of added details could have made it great. A bedside lamp so that there was more option than just the ceiling light would be great, and looking at the shower drainage system which is slow - the shower is more of a wet room and the floor could flood easily.

Great location, friendly staff. Rooms cleanliness not up to standard of price / what’s advertised / pictures. Daily room cleaning was also cursory. Lots of the furniture looked heavily used. Wasn’t a dealbreaker but given the price and advertising as bespoke/boutique, did not meet expectations.

Good value

Pros- the staff were very friendly and overall for the price paid the room it was good value. Great location. Cons - the room was tired looking and the bathroom was tiny. It was not water tight meaning the room did smell of damp

Great Hotel, will be back

Check in was easy, room 202 is big, the small heater in the corner doesnt really warm the room, so a bit on the cold side. Windows could do with soundproofing as the sound from outside is very audible, didnt really bother us but my bother others. Bathroom is well equipped and large with underfloor heating. The full Lock & Key full breakfast is delicious and worh every penny. The hotel is situated perfectly, 2 minutes from Liverpool One shopping area, 2 minutes from the Albert docks and 15 minutes from the Empire Theatre.

Pros: Friendly staff, comfy rooms, amazing location very central. Cons b: noise issues from party-goers who kept me awake for one hour in the night, I know it's not the hotels fault but maybe they can ask guests to be quiet after a certain time or not let young groups all stay in one room No lift and shower is open so wets the entire bathroom

Reviews dont match the hotel, its poor.

Booked 2 rooms for 1 night. My mother is disabled and the hotel were not able to offer a ground floor room. They also have no lift and no accessibility measures in place at all. My room was on the top floor and smells really badly of dame, so much so that its saturated all of my cloths for days, even after they had been washed. As the hotel weren't able to offer an alternative room for a disabled woman, unlkly that they would have a replacement for a damp room so i didn't ask, we had also arrived late in the day and were there only 1 night for a funeral. I don't know who has written all of the reviews for this hotel but my experience was not good at all. Even without the damp and accessibility issues, the rooms were nicely decorated but average at best. Had a kettle but nowhere to plug it in and a leaky shower. Id give this place a miss.

Fine

The location is good and the staff are friendly. The decor is nice but tired. The shower ran cold and tv didn’t work. The windows looked out onto brick walls. It’s fine for one nights stay.
