The place was fine. Staff was great when they were there but wish there was a safer feeling when keeping luggage. Beds where comfy enough but you get what you pay for.

The area where this hostel is located is the Jewellery quarter, close to the Utilita arena in Birmingham. From this point of view it was a convenient but the neighbourhood at night is a bit dark and sometimes I didn’t’ feel safe walking after returning from the show. In general was a fine stay and I would return. Good bed and bathroom.

Great place to stay when all you need is a bed to sleep in. Staff are really friendly and helpful. for the price, the room quality is great.

Everything was perfect, except that the hostel needs to get cleaners doing a better job with the ensuite rooms.

We stayed in a private room in this hostel which, though cheaper than most other options in Liverpool, was by no means cheap and the state of the room made it feel like bad value. The room was dirty - there was visible dirt on the floors, walls, fittings, toilet etc. The radiator control was broken meaning that 24hrs a day (and more to the point, night) the radiators were too hot to touch and the room was like an oven. The windows barely opened but did provide some relief. Good job then that the shower was only just warm. There was no blind in the south facing bathroom so you could barely see in there when the sun was out (but you could definitely see the dirt!). Strangely, the communal spaces in the building have very strong and quite unpleasant perfumes that hit you as soon as you walk in the building. Plus sides were friendly staff, clean sheets, comfortable bed, close to a very affordable long stay car park, and good location for sightseeing.

Miss leading advertisement

Me and my partner come to stay at the ph hostel for one night as it was one of the better priced options in the city. Because of this we wasn’t expecting lots but however at the bare minimum you should be provided what is advertised such as WiFi and breakfast. The guest WiFi didn’t work and when we went to reception to ask if we could use the office WiFi they declined. The breakfast seen as photographed on the website is none existent! We thought we was getting a bargain full English for the price of a fiver only to be told that they only provided cereal and refillable coffee

Cheap… if your stuck and know were else to go

The beds were so uncomfortable only one pillow, this is expected for a cheap stay, bathroom was in a mess, paint was peeling of the ceilings, if your stuck for a bed and very little money it’s perfect.
