Stayed here last minute after a delayed flight to break up my journey. Think the reviews and pictures were misleading. Rooms pretty tatty and in need of TLC. Thin walls, no soundproofing and woken up by people coming in late and then someone in the next room coughing early in the morning. Wouldn’t want to stay here longer than I had to, but staff were friendly enough and location good, just overpriced for what is essentially an old travel lodge equivalent.

used to be good value. now an admin nightmare

Appears the hotel has changed ownership between booking via Hotels.com and my checking. This means they lost the booking which took time to sort, then on checkout are 'unable' to provide receipts without speaking to the the head office which seems a basic right. They refuse to put you in touch with head office, and have the audacity to tell me the card payment receipt is fine for claiming expenses. Avoid.

It was nothing like the pictures and I had to move to another hotel after spending there one night there. The receptionist did not even bother to ask why I was checking out early despite losing one night’s stay which was not refundable. Cleaners ran loud hovering around the lobby area during the times guests were around - I saw them both in the evening and morning. I saw a flattened small insect in my bedding but did not even bother to tell them.

Really enjoyable stay, made even better by the friendly and accommodating staff. The rooms were very clean with housekeeping attending to the room everyday. The location is ideal for Manchester Picadilly, for the Arndale shopping centre and for the Northern Quarter. I’d definitely recommend staying here.
