For a budget hotel for one night this place was absolutely fine. Very simple but had a few niceties like tea and coffee in the room. I was facing the road which was a bit noisy at times and the rooms themselves do not have much sound proofing so can hear people in the hallway. Thankfully I stayed on a weeknight so there were only a few times this happened. The parking was great and easy to find the hotel. Overall it was alright and I would recommend for a short visit. The staff were friendly too.

The initial attraction is the free parking as several hotels wanted £60 per night per vehicle. The room rates were good. Restaurant and bar prices were very reasonable and full English breakfast was excellent. Check in was easy and all staff were excellent; friendly, helpful and efficient. The location is ideal for the docks and to walk into the city nightlife and shops. The rooms were small and the toilet and shower room was tiny. We were only there for 2 nights so bearable. The thing that annoyed me most was the number of emails and notifications that I received after booking, wanting additional details for other group members and several reminders about group booking policies. I think they were concerned that we might have been a stag or hen party, which they don't allow. For a short, budget stays the Dolby is very good. If the room is an important consideration then maybe its not for you. The room was clean however and staff were great.

Bathroom is very very small, shower head fixed to roof, there was a shower cap, but because the space is so compact, not idea for anyone over a medium size. The bed wasn't even a bed very uncomfortable as no flexibility as its a matress on a platform, never seen this before and very small double, wish I had a tape measure. Liverpool is an amazing city was here for 3 nights, and when staying in a hotel you look for a comfortable bed and decent shower, Both very very dissapointing. Wouldn't have thought a hotel of any sort would be allowed to class what they have as a bed.

Decent value
One night stay with my son. Great location, close to bars and pubs, with great choice of places to eat at the nearby docks. Check in was easy, with friendly staff. Hotel was clean throughout. Room and bathroom were small, but good enough for a single night. Breakfast was decent and would certainly be happy to stay here again if needing somewhere near the city centre.

Great Hotel , good value for money.
Great location, comfy room, quiet, friendly and helpful staff. Much better and cheaper than the Premier Inn down the road. The restaurant shuts at 8, but you can order Uber Eats and eat in the restaurant.

This was a nice hotel although rooms are compact - think cruise ship cabins. Location was great and walkable. We managed to get in all the sights on foot. Breakfast wasn’t good at all. Not sure what was in the sausages. There is McDonald’s opposite which is where we ended up the following morning. Hotel has an EV charger and with an Octopus Electroverse card is 30p/kw which is cheaper than the 69p using the EVBox app. Plenty of general parking
