YHA リバプール セントラル(Kabannas Liverpool)

Great location and clean.

The staff were so lovely and very helpful. The bar wasn't bad either, but the rooms are nothing short of disgraceful mould everywhere. I wouldn't allow my kids to shower for the 2 days as I was afraid they would be harmed by the excessive mould. Bed frames were caked with dirt. Water running down the windows in the morning. Never experienced anything like it

This is a good value choice right in the heart of Liverpool. We stayed in a private room on the third floor overlooking Matthew Street. Yes, it’s very noisy at the weekend, but there’s nothing anyone can do about that. If you’re out drinking yourselves and planning a late night, then you’ll probably crash out when you get in and sleep through the music blasting in from outside. The room was clean enough, a good shower and comfortable bed. The staff are friendly and the reception/breakfast area was quite attractive. It’s a budget option and if that’s what you need, I would recommend Kabannas.

I had a great one night stay in this beautiful city. The walls could use a little renovation.

There was no tea or coffee facilities in room no TV had trouble checking in because no photo id great location staff were great

Location is very good Room is OK but sink and shower don't drain shower over flows and makes it very slippy when getting out. Old single plain window can be very noisy at night due to location could be abit better wouldn't reccomend staying with a family won't get much sleep. Had requested early check-in didn't get it tho. Fee for storing bags and also fee for towels which I've never had another place i stayed. Nice friendly staff too Good value for money but would need bit of a upgrade and could be a bit cleaner bags if rubbish out in hall for nearly 2 days as well.

The private rooms are all at the front of the building with at least three pubs blaring music out into the street from early-afternoon until 4am. There is no sound-proofing, just single-glazed sash windows and thin curtains. It was so loud that the bed vibrated. Conversation was impossible, let alone sleep, and the volume was so loud I didn't dare open the windows even though the room was stuffy. I've quite happily stayed in city centre hotels before, and am used to grabbing some kip in shared dorms and on trains with a good pair of ear-plugs, but this was impossible. Private rooms are more expensive than a Premier Inn or Travelodge, but come with none of the equivalent facilities such as a kettle or a cup, let alone a good-night sleep guarantee. The hostel also doesn't have traditional facilities for a budget traveller such as a self-catering kitchen. On top of that, the only way to interact with the hostel is via their chatbot. Staff on site can do nothing but apologise, tell you they get a lot of complaints about the noise, and offer you a free cup of tea or earbuds, but beyond that good luck making any kind of complaint. Absolute rip-off, bottom-end facilities for mid-range price. Would not stay with Kabannas under any circumstance ever again.

So, the thing to bear in mind is that this hostel is right on Mathew Street, and the bars/clubs on the street compete for attention by pumping out music as loud as they can. So, if you have a room on that side of the hostel it is very noisy until they close (which is 4am on weekends). If you're a light sleeper and you don't intend to be out late then you might struggle. We went out late and had earplugs and were fine. The room was clean enough and the shower was hot and had good pressure. The reception staff were lovely and very helpful. The cooked breakfast was ok - greasy spoon standard - but sometimes that’s just what you need! Overall we had a good time there.

Located in the heart of Liverpool , Kabannas is the perfect place to book for your next vacay. It is walking distance from Liverpool station, this hostel attracts everyone for its clean interiors and warm staff. One such kind staff member, Omar was very helpful when I forgot my stuff in their hostel and made sure to get my stuff to the right place. Met some wonderful hostelites as well. Definitely recommend this one if you’re heading to Liverpool !
