Nice hotel. Good staff and service. Nice little buffet breakfast as well. I booked a double room, very spacious, but the bed was small compared to the rest of the room. The room had an inside balcony, which is a very nice touch. Sainsbury's was 4 mins walk away and a bus stop was nearby too. Convenient. I enjoyed my stay.

Disappointing Stay – Would Not Recommend

This was one of the most uncomfortable hotel stays I’ve ever had. The bathroom had no door, which is incredibly awkward and far from private. The room was unbearably hot, with no air conditioning or even proper ventilation. The bed was tiny for couple—I’ve never seen such a small bed in any hotel before, and it was definitely not made for a good night’s sleep. To make things worse, the carpet was dirty, and it bunched up at the toilet entrance, making it difficult to even open the toilet door. Overall, I would not stay here again.

The carpets were very badly stained, desperately need replacing or at least a very good industrial clean. Booked a double room for myself and my teenage daughter as there were no twins available at the time, wasn't a problem we don't mind sharing. But no door on the bathroom was a bit too far for a self conscious teen... don't assume it's always going to be couples in a double, and even then sometimes a bit a privacy is wanted...a nice industrial looking door on runners would look 👌

Not sure is worth the money

Is a nice refurbished building and good location if you have business near by. However for the price I paid there are other properties in central Manchester with Aircon and continental breakfast included. The bed was way to soft. Horrible mattress. Don't think I will come back Staff are very friendly.

Great place and suited all our needs. Transport was ok, but we walked to it quite easily from the free bus #1 when needed. Our room was clean and tidy, bed was comfortable. The room was very warm and had to use a fan we found in the cupboard. The coffee machine in the foyer was really good. Overall we would easily come here again.
