Embassie Backpackers Liverpool

Free tea&coffee&juices. Nice staff and public space.

Okay, I’ll start by saying that when I arrived, there was no one there to greet me. I walked in, and the whole place was pitch black—and obviously filthy, as you can see in the photos (though it was actually even worse in person). It looked like an abandoned house, with millions of things piled up over the years. Eventually, two men came out to attend to me—which was pretty scary, being a woman traveling alone. They were very polite, and I appreciate that, but that was the *only* good thing about the stay. I like cats, but they have one whose bed is literally sitting right on top of the coffee maker. My own bed had dirty sheets—stained and full of holes. There was a huge pile of trash right next to my bed. There were also a lot of men living there indefinitely. I stepped out to use the bathroom and ended up seeing one of them walking around shirtless—WTF?! A HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE. If you are a woman, please do not stay here.

The accommodation needs some maintenance, beds missing some screws and feel unsafe to sleep on them, there is no lock on doors, the backyard stays open all night for people to drink and they kept making noise all night we couldn't sleep at all

The history of the building, the location and connection to the Beatles Full of interesting fixtures and fittings. Needed TLC and a little organization

Nice breakfast great location No complaints

That said, the property does have some redeeming qualities. It’s housed in a large, old building full of character, and it’s located in a great area, close to key spots in the city, which makes getting around quite convenient. With better management and attention to cleanliness, the hostel has real potential. I stayed at Embassie Backpackers and unfortunately, it was one of the worst accommodation experiences I’ve ever had. The hostel was dirty and poorly maintained, with a constant bad smell throughout the corridors and rooms. The bed I was assigned had a foul odour, and the mattress clearly hadn’t been cleaned in a long time. To make matters worse, there was a plate of old food on top of the wardrobe — it looked like it had been sitting there for weeks, covered in mould and surrounded by flies. The place felt completely neglected in terms of hygiene and organisation. The common areas were also messy and far from welcoming. I absolutely do not recommend this place, especially for anyone who values even the most basic standards of cleanliness and comfort.

There was a rat in the room! I leave in the same moment when I saw
