Great shower.
The walls of the bedrooms are very thin and the rooms close to each other. With noisy and inconsiderate guests staying in the other bedrooms and partying into the early hours of the morning, sleep was almost impossible.

Location was great. Breakfast was great. Room was spacious and modern.
It's on a heavily trafficked road but you don't hear it with the windows closed.

Extremely comfortable and if you’re going to the AO Arena, it’s only a four minute walk which is absolutely ideal.
Property was perfect. The one thing they do not have decaf teabags and that’s maybe something that they need to look at. It’s not a criticism it’s just something that the hotel needs to address.

Great proximity to the centre of Manchester, the local Q park with the additional 20% discount and the fabulous breakfast.
Room wasn’t as clean as I’d have liked, lots of dust, particularly in bathroom. Plus very noisy doors when guests came back on the evening. Was woken a few times during the night.

Great breakfast, room was recently renovated and very spacious for solo traveler. Lots of daylight/windows. While the rooms are directly above the ground level pub that does play music/host activities every evening, I never had an issue with the noise keeping me awake when I needed to sleep. They provide earplugs but I didn't need to use them. Never heard any noise from adjacent rooms. Pub bar staff assist with check in and are very friendly and helpful.
Sink and shower drain were slow to drain and the toilet flush buttons would get a bit stuck when used.

Bed was super comfortable great location for seeing majority of the city. Spacious room which was very clean and lovely big shower. Breakfast was also very nice
There wasnt a fridge in the room not personally a big deal for me. The room is above a pub so can hear the music from downstairs but it was always turned off by 11:30/12 so again was fine
