Small accommodation but fine for a short stay. Room decor looking tired in places and other guest's were quite noisy returning in the early hours. Would have been useful to have had bedside table and light next to bed. Restaurant staff not very aware of what is/isn’t vegan. I would nevertheless stay here again due to convenience and value for money.

The hotel is fine for a short stay but it’s really dated and needs a bit of TLC and moving from the 1990’s. It was really warm in the room and no sockets near the bed

Better options available nearby
The place looks a bit dated, needs a refresh and some paint. Our double room was extremely small. We could not bot move around at the same time. Having said that, a good location for the city centre and transport links and the service was friendly and efficient

I would say my stay was reasonably good. As I expected from reading other reviews the property was a little bit outdated. Some mold in the bathroom could be cleaned

Great trip, friendly staff, and good value
The American bar man is a true gent. Staff were great. I had a very comfortable stay. The only downside was that in the bathroom there was oddly only hand soap and hair conditioner, not shampoo or shower gel.

No bacon sarnies!
Full English Breakfast available for £11, but not a sandwich! I have to be up early around half seven, but don't want a big breakfast. In the restaurant, I asked if i could just buy a bacon sandwich, but was told NO! Full breakfasts only! I had to walk half a mile into Manchester city centre to find a Greggs! Shame, the bacon looked great...

A lovely hotel in all respects!
From initial inquiries to departing the staff were nothing but fantastic..polite, professional and helpful. I'd honestly say the staff were a credit to the company. We asked for a room on the quieter part of the hotel and we were very happy with where we were located, the room was modern, exceptionally clean and we were pleased to have tea, coffee and biscuits. Breakfast was delicious, all quality produce and presented well. A great selection to cater for all requirements. We would definitely stay again on having plans in this area of Manchester.

Good stuff: 1. Really nice staff. Checking in and out was very easy. They kindly booked me a taxi one morning too and it arrived so quickly 2. Fab breakfast. Gorgeous sausages! 3. The hotel is close to the centre of town 4. Very clean!! Good, little bathroom. The only issues were: 1. Heat: there was no air con and although the room had a little desk fan, it really wasn’t sufficient. I was boiling through the night. 2. There wasn’t a fridge 2. They don’t have a gym either but I should have checked this before booking.

Great location, small but functional rooms
The main thing to understand is that this is like a university residence. My room was a true single - including a single bed - and very small desk, bathroom (but private!), etc. However, I was expecting this and it was all I needed for one night. The place has all the other normal things you'd expect in a hotel - luggage storage, on-site restaurant, etc. The breakfast was much more elaborate than expected, and very hearty! Location is very good as well, within walking distance of the Medieval Quarter and the historical sites and museums (but not convenient for the Etihad or Old Trafford stadiums). Also close to Piccadilly Station, which was a big selling point for me.
