The room was newly furnished, comfortable bed, good size, tea and coffee making facilities, nice decoration, bathroom is newly fitted, the hotel has central location, walking distance the main bus lines and all landmarks of Manchester city centre, The breakfast was good for the price, but it had fixed plates that you choose from. Clothes ironing facilities available.
The place has a very busy bar at the ground level, with a live DJ on weekends, very noisy, especially on weekends. You have to walk to the rooms via the pub; there is no soundproofing in the rooms, and I could hear all the sounds from the other rooms and the pub. Other residents were laughing and watching TV loudly at late times of the day and in the middle of the night. Earplugs were provided to help with that. The view of the room was awful, with the window looking out at the A/C units. The sink was blocked with dirt on arrival, and staff tried to help on the day, but it was fully fixed the next day.

Staff very friendly and helpful
Our room was changed from 1st floor to 2nd floor which was not good as i have legs disability, no view from window and very noisy from 7am with wagons delivering and picking up heavy materials which woke us both up. The mattress was also hard.

Excellent location with all amenities within 5 minutes walk, staff very helpful, friendly and accommodating, the room was small but adequate and clean, food and drink options, as the venue says 24 hours, although personally I did not use this option, I have stayed many times in Manchester and my stay here was very good value,
If you value sleep, peace and quiet then you have to realize that with lots of other venues in the city centre, obviously the city offers options for late night activities and people do return late in the night, early morning, in a state of inebriation, this though is not necessarily the responsibility of the hotel,
