Great living/staying

Great spot on a great location of Manchester. Staff here were excellent always trying to help with recommendations. It is more like apartment style which is fun and different. They offer any amenities you need but won't bug you everyday for housekeeping. Had everything in the kitchen including dishwasher and washing machine which we didn't expect. Gym was another added luxury with new machines boxing equipment and other unique items for a cool different workout experience as well. Would definitely go back here next time we are in Manchester.

Honestly the best boutique hotel experience we’ve ever had. The US needs to take some pointers from Locke. We’ll be staying with them in other cities for sure. Kieren and the other hosts were super helpful. The place was immaculate and the coffee and food on premise were world class.
