The most important reason for choosing Albert Court was the location; Albert Court is less than a 10-minute walk to the University of Liverpool and a 14-minute walk to Liverpool John Moores University, making it ideal for students who are studying at both universities.
In addition, Albert Court Apartments are conveniently located in Liverpool city centre. The flats are well-equipped, with a free gym and a spacious communal lounge. It’s also worth noting that the neighbourhood is very convenient, with the local Domino‘s pizza restaurant just a 2-minute walk away and the Tesco Express supermarket just a 5-minute walk away, making it easy to get your daily shopping done. Therefore, Albert Court is a perfect student accommodation in Liverpool.
Transport
Liverpool’s buses are super convenient! The routes are broadly divided into four main directions, southeast, northwest and northwest, and the numbering is very clear. 1, 2 and 7 A mostly run to the airport, 60-69 mostly run outside Liverpool city centre. Additionally, 600-699 tend to be funded by universities and colleges and run to and from the city and the campuses, between the main campus and the neighbouring student flats. And it only operates at particular times of day or during the school’s operating hours.
Liverpool’s underground is more suitable for those who want to go to the surrounding areas from Liverpool city centre because Liverpool Central Station should be the nearest to you, near Liverpool One. You can search for the specific information on Google Maps and buy the tickets on the training and other online platforms or in the ticket machine in the station.
In addition, if you want to go to Chester outlet shopping, students note from Liverpool to Chester is a unique line bus. It would be best if you searched on Google Maps.
Shopping & Supermarket
Liverpool One in the city centre is a sizeable semi-open-plan shopping centre with over 170 shops. There are shops for fast-moving brands such as ZARA and Bershka, as well as more upmarket brands such as Other Stories and COS.
Liverpool One is also home to restaurants, a cinema and an arcade so that you won’t be bored after a long day. Unlike Liverpool One, Flannels has a massive range of high-end make-up and luxury brands, and the mall is always on sale with great discounts, so it’s perfect for those who want to pick up some great brands.
You can go to M&S and Lidl supermarkets if you need to buy groceries. M&S focuses on high-quality goods, so the price is higher than other supermarkets, and it’s famous for its desserts. At the same time, Lidl is more cost-effective and has a wide range of groceries, so I bought a lot of necessities here when I first came to Liverpool.
Activities
Liverpool is known for its lively nightlife with a wide range of bars, restaurants and music events. Dale Street, Cumberland Street and Eberle Street are the centre of Liverpool’s LGBT nightlife, and the famous Cavern Club is just a short walk away.
OMG Liverpool is one of Liverpool’s most popular LGBTQIA+ venues, with an extensive and exciting events calendar and a nightly entertainment programme featuring cabaret, karaoke and more. OMG Liverpool is located in Cavern Quarter and is open to the public from 7 pm.
Superstar Boudoir is situated in Liverpool’s Rainbow Quarter, where the city’s best drag queens bring the glitz and glamour of Liverpool to the city. It welcomes all with open arms and offers an unrivalled selection of shows and wines. The bar is open until late every day, so you can enjoy music all night on a Saturday or immerse yourself in a world of musical productions and stage performances for weekend entertainment.
Conclusion
In conclusion, Liverpool is more than just a place to study; it’s a place to grow, to make lifelong connections, and to create unforgettable memories. I hope this blog will help you when you first time to Liverpool. Finally, I hope you spend a vibrant time in Liverpool.
