Only real issue was that it got quite hot at night with no AC or fan
Great centrally located hotel without the silly pr
we had a great time in Manchester.
the location of the hotel was excellent.
the room was clean and the room was serviced regularly.
the morning breakfast was excellent as was the breakfast service staff, who was very polite and friendly.
We checked in, went to our room and turned around instantly. The room had no windows, ripped carpets, bulging walls, and light switches that didn’t work. The only light in the room was a leaning floor lamp and the “ac” mentioned in the listing was a small desk fan that didn’t even oscillate. There was a prominent smell throughout the hotel and bad vibes. Both my friend and I felt very unsafe and we decided we had to leave and not stay the night. It’s a shame that there was no refund issued.
This place did not at all match the photos and description. We checked out one hour after checking in and had to find alternate accommodations. It was dirty and smelly from the front lobby, elevator, hallways and rooms.
A comfortable nights sleep in a hotel with great location, only 20 min walk to Piccadilly station. Nice hot shower.
Only criticism is the need for photo ID, I live in the UK where we don’t need to carry ID and the staff say you need ID with photo - luckily I had my veterans id which has a photo on
Convenient hotel from Piccadilly train station
Short walk
Friendly staff on reception
Breakfast was optional from cereal to croissants fresh ham and cheese fruit on offer

Stayed one night here for a concert. To be fair some of the reviews i read were not great. I was a bit worried. But we found the hotel to be good. Clean room. Nice staff. Its a bit old and tiered but i would certainly stay again.
