Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The room was spacious, with quality bedding and an excellent bathroom; however, it looked a bit dated and in need of modernization. The service was fantastic, with accommodating staff, but some lacked knowledge and helpfulness. The location was central and convenient, close to everything I needed. Dining had its ups and downs, with some dishes taking too long and being served cold; however, other options were tailored to my liking. The facilities were well-equipped, although I wished for more drinking facilities available in the room.
My stay was fine overall, but there were some pros and cons to consider. The rooms were a little small and airless, and not being able to open the window for fresh air was a downside. The location is great for getting around Manchester, but it feels a bit dodgy in the area. The service was pleasant and helpful, though the coffee could have been better. The dining experience had some exceptional dishes but waiting for food was a bit of an issue.
The hotel offers clean and well-presented rooms at a reasonable price, but noise from the restaurant below can be disruptive. The service is friendly and helpful, although some staff members could be more welcoming. The location is perfect for exploring Manchester, but occasional odors can be off-putting. The dining experience is varied, with high-quality options available. Overall, a decent value for money stay with some minor drawbacks.
