It's cheap and cheerful, and it was grand for me.
I had no problem with my stay, the room was clean, shower was powerful, and it had a TV. Bed wasn't the comfiest and the room was basic and tired. BUT for £45 a night in the centre of Manchester on a Friday, it did me nicely thank you very much!

Great location for affordable hotel
Excellent location and very affordable. The curtains don’t fully cover the whole window so let a bit of sunlight in and the doors are designed that guests slam them shut so that wakes you up but you definitely get a great stay in central Manchester for a good price

Good hotel, basic rooms.
Overnight stay. Rooms are basic with tea and coffee facilities, bathroom with a bath and shower and Freeview TV (not satellite) as advertised. Bed was comfortable although extra pillows would have been a bonus as you only got one each provided on a double bed. The room had an inbuilt wardrobe with extra towels, blanket, ironing facilities and a small desktop fan.

Could be cheaper
The room was ok, there wasn’t any room service, though they did say in their information sheet in the room, should I need towels or hot drinks, they will provide. The bed was comfortable. The room itself was spacious and somewhat clean.

This was once a grand hotel which still retains its charms but repackaged as a budget Inn. Handy location, can walk everywhere. Priced right

Bargain price and good location
This hotel is really good value for money. The building inside has wonderful period architecture and our executive double was spacious. Its an old building but its reasonably well maintained and there are bars, bistros and restaurants on site for convenience. Its a great central location and the breakfast was reasonable for the price. Some areas are dated etc but its also a lot cheaper than most nearby hotels. We were reassured when returning late in the evening to find security on the entrance.
