Arena House

Great Location, Great Price, fair standards. Why pay so much for a hotel just for a short Liverpool stay, when you can get everything you need for a lot less! I know some people may complain about some areas, but you are staying in a hostel, close to the heart of Liverpool and great for those (like myself) who are from another city so if you are taking a night bus back then it is easy to even walk to Liverpool One bus station to catch that late night Megabus or National express back home. So no worries about trying to catch a bus late at night. The price can vary but it is fantastically convenient and great for when you need to get into the city or come back, so everything you want or need is nearby. The bathroom, kitchen, and common areas are all shared so it is no different to a big shared house. With many people keeping to themselves then if you want to take advantage of the large common rooms to eat your dinner and watch TV then fantastic for you! Plus broadband access throughout, TV in the room with storage space. My only real negative is the smell of smoke in one corridor - some naughty person smoking in room clearly and pretty much the good and bad of a big shared house (you meet nice travelers there too. Some may just rudely ignore you!). And laundry room, although I never had time to use it and just did laundry back home. And bring a towel. Otherwise you will need to rent one for £3! :/

I would definitely recommend a stay in Arena house. As far as B&Bs + hotels go, you absolutely can not go wrong for the price. At £24 a night, I would have expected to get a bunk in a hostel, but the room had a single bed, TV with satellite, wardrobe and kettle. Really great value!!!! Only downside was that the shower is communal and I had to walk from there back to my room with wet hair. Again though, given the price, you can't complain at all. You also have to hire a towel, so I would advise you to bring one with you. Staff were all super friendly.
