ibis budget Casula Liverpool

The only good things that could be said about this hotel were: the bed was great; the staff were friendly and helpful and the blockout curtain was so good we slept in. The bad things were: we couldn't walk on the carpet in bear feet; the bathroom was small and the whole place looked tired. The only reason we stayed was because it was so close to a daughter's place.

Bed was comfortable, and bathroom was off decent size. I'm not a fan of the disposable cups in the room though, and I do travel with my own so not a big deal. Tea and coffee supplies were a bit light on. The exit out onto traffic can be awkward during busy times, and found it best to go out though the entry only, and around the block to the traffic lights.

Having never stayed in an Ibis Budget Hotel, I was expecting to compare it to the old Formula One brand. As a basic hotel it was very comfortable, the bed was quite the surprise for comfort, and I had a great sleep. The only issue with the room furniture, I'd prefer a chair, rather than the stool provided, for back support. Two problems with the bathroom (which is much like a cruise ship bathroom) the shower had no shelf to hold toiletries (it was broken) and the light switch was also broken, with the switch pushed into the housing, but still worked. A huge bonus was the amount of power outlets in the room - a total of 6 plugs (5 in the room and 1 in the bathroom) and 2 USB charging points. I didn't have to unpack my powerboard. On the highway, but you could hardly hear the traffic. Of course with Covid restrictions, the dining room isn't available, but there are ample food outlets a short walk away, or use a food delivery service. Would stay here again,

We stayed two nights and, while I have no desire to stay there again, it served our purpose. It is called budget for a reason. The staff were great however, right from the time of booking to the to time we checked out.

I had booked it as a place to sleep given night work and it's convenience to the M5. Bed was comfortable, desk and free WiFi allowed me to work. Bathroom was pokie but adequate. Room and hotel was clean, secure, and presentable. Room was quiet. Off street parking. Staff were friendly and helpful.
