Maldron Hotel Liverpool City
Good clean modern hotel. Shame that there wasn’t a fridge in the room. Hence, only 4 stars.

Holiday Inn Haydock M6 Jct23 by IHG
Room clean. Nice staff. Breakfast was great. Hotel rooms probably could do with a makeover but are absolutely fine. Only negative is that the swimming pool shut earlier than it said.
