What a fantastic time my two dogs and I had here! We were greeted by the very helpful and friendly Tony who showed us round our room and the communal areas. He was very helpful and kicked our stay off to a wonderful start. It was just a one night stop over before an event in the area the next day but it felt like a mini holiday. The hostel is the most well equipped, clean and modern hostel I've ever stayed in! Everything you could possibly need during your stay, especially the kitchen facilities - free tea, coffee and cooking essentials were so helpful. Easy, free parking right outside the front door too. It was spacious and comfortable, truly dog friendly and the rooms were immaculate. Will definitely be back again when I'm next in the area.

The Liverpool Pod Travel Hostel 4 stars

This 4-star hostel offers a shared kitchen, a shared lounge and free WiFi. The property is non-smoking and is set 1.5 km from Anfield Stadium. I can’t say enough good things about this amazing hostel! The staff were great, Tim the owner was so lovely and so kind! He gave such great advice about where to go and what to do! The facilities are clean and comfortable. The bathroom is so clean and the shower was probably the best one I’ve been in since traveling, so big and clean. The beds were super comfortable and the room was very nice and clean. Tim even let me do laundry for free when all across Ireland and the UK they wanted almost 10 pounds, what a gem! The people who are staying there are so great, fun and welcoming, I had a blast! The area to hang out is small but it’s good to get to know people and have a great time! 100/100 would recommend!
