Decent enough

Room was pretty cosy but very warm. Ground floor so window wouldn't open at all. Would hate to stay here in summer! Bed and pillows were quite soft and squishy too which wasn't ideal. Also the bath was very high so took a bit of climbing to get in when you're 5'2... Service was good though - it was sufficient for one night.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
All 3 radiators in the room were broken, window wouldn't shut properly so lead to a noisey & cold stay. Also with it being ground floor anyone could open the window from outside proving it a safety risk. Made reception aware of issues and was told that they would look into moving our room. Half hour later was told that the other room also had no working radiators. This meant a cold sleepless night. The room had stained carpets, broken picture frames and a damaged bathroom floor. The spare pillows weren't clean also. For the price I paid I would expect atleast a clean room and working radiators. After reaching out to the hotel for a refund as there were no management on site over the weekend I have been ignored. Do not stay here

Great price to stay on the edge of Manchester city centre. Value and secure parking on site. Professional staff. I opted for a basic room which was very large. No window in the room but that meant no external noise, so a very peaceful sleep. I would stay here again.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The room is very spacious but I found the electrical appliance poor in maintenance, like there’s a burning smell of the hairdryer and the iron is definitely so burnt but was not replaced. Also, there’s dust in the cups. I would say the hotel is very clean but I think more maintenance would be needed. Also, the laundry location is very far which makes laundry by self a bit inconvenient. But it’s still a nice place to stay.

I had a comfortable stay. The room was clean and spacious, and the staff were very friendly and supportive. It happened to be a particularly warm day, and while a table fan was provided, it wasn’t very effective in the heat — a tower fan would have been more useful. That said, for a one-night stay it was still a pleasant experience overall.
