i have stayed in this lodge every aug for about 4yrs now i come every yr from down south to visit family we usually stay one night then stay at relatives for 9days but this yr 2009 we are going to stay 2 nights last yr 2008 we had to stay a bit longer as my little girl took ill and they were very good about it Staff very friendly and helpful im disabled and when i asked for more pillows they brought them to our room without delay a great place to relax in and eat in the carvary is great my kids love it we will be coming next yr to

We stayed 3 nights in May 2009, had a room on the top floor (actually there's only the ground floor and the 1st floor). Nice big room, clean, nicely decorated and well equipped. Bathroom also very good with modern big shower (no bath) with good water pressure. One morning there was no hot water but a quick call (dial 0 from the phone in the room) had it sorted in literally 5 minutes. The mattress was a bit too soft for us so we told the staff at breakfast time and within 20 mins, just as we were going out for the day, they were there with a new mattress - and that was a lot better. Breakfast is included - and that is very good, and there's a free newspaper (independant). The hotel rooms are in a separate building from the restaurant (toby carvery) and key card access is required to access the building and also to access the 1st floor, with normal key access to each room, so its reasonably secure. Parking is on site, plentiful, and free. We didn't use the acr from arrival to departing - we walked 10 mins down the road and caught a bus into town - buses come every 5-10 mins. We ate in the restaurant the first night - excellent meal with ice cream, total cost £12 for 2. The room was excellent value - less than £100 for 3 nights, including breakfasts is very hard to beat, and at that price what we git far exceeded expectations. The staff were very helpful and friendly, and nothing was too much trouble, so top marks to them. OK it doesn't have the convenience of being right down in the centre - but it does have the convenience of free parking, and its quieter, and its not very far off the end of the motorway, so on balance I'd rather stay here than spend more than twice as much to stay in the town. What I'd like to see.... A bigger , firmer bed (like Premier Inn's), all the Freeview channels (no bbc3 bbc4 but there is sky-1 and sky sports 1 2 3 - normal innkeepers lodge policy i gather) WiFi is advertised by not free - it's provided by 'the cloud' - i didn't use it

I needed a Liverpool Hotel booked at short notice for a business trip - not knowing it was the Grand National Weekend. The usual Travelodge/Premier Inn hotels were fully booked so I managed to get a two night B&B stay for a not-bad £156 - good considering the scarity of rooms in Liverpool. The hotel is a typical Innkeepers Lodge - better rooms than Travelodge, you get a continental breakfast included and tea/coffee in the room. The Liverpool North hotel is about 4 miles from the central attractions and about 2 miles from the M62 if you have a car (also plenty of parking space). A bus stop is outside. There are a few pubs and shops nearby but the onsite Toby Carvery was good value for food. Check in was quick and easy, staff very friendly and helpful, the room spotless and the hotel generally quiet. Recommended for a trip to Liverpool if you don't need to be in the city centre.
