About this place Malacuna Liverpool

Malacuna Liverpool is a budget hostel on Mount Pleasant, uphill from the city centre near the universities and the Metropolitan Cathedral. It's a mainstream, gay-friendly hostel, not a gay venue, and it suits travellers on a tight budget who mainly need a bed. The 3.4 Google rating from about 120 reviews suggests uneven standards, so check recent comments on cleanliness and noise. Liverpool's gay quarter around Stanley Street is a 10-15 minute walk downhill, as are Lime Street station and the main shopping streets.

The rooms are tiny. Little privacy. The beds are uncomfortable. Everything is old. The elevator didn't work once in 3 days.

This was very basic, a great shower and comfy bed the two highlights. No TV in the room and the bar was closed as it was too quiet, a 👎 as this was advertised as available. I would only stay here if it was a room that was required for an overnight stay. The staff were helpful though, the building very rough round the edges but, if more work was done it would be more appealing. That said there was a modern feel to it, I liked the olld red phone box in the reception and wall pictures. As a very basic hotel I noticed some good positives, very secure rooms, accessible floors not alot of stairs and the health and safety was very good. I could see fire exits and guidance on the doors with well lit corridors which were all.alarmed, and not to forget 24hr reception 👍. For all that this place wasn't I would stay there again because the most important things to me are safety, security and a comfy bed and they have this.

Room heading description is highly misleading. Nothing in the instant information says room is mixed dormitory. This is not my first time staying in a hostel. Seems malacuna intentionally excluded that it was mixed. State it in the heading. Suddenly saw a guy in the room also. This a form where the bathroom is inside the room
