A pleasant one night stay for me and my friend. Room was comfortable enough for two, we were impressed by the size of the shower and both slept well in our beds. We couldn't figure out the AC system so unfortunately had to keep it on the entire time, a little manual may have been helpful. Breakfast was standard, it was a Saturday morning so quite busy and a few things had run out. Overall, a good stay in a perfect location. If in Manchester again, I'd definitely consider this hotel.

Check in was relatively quick with a short queue. Staff explained all that was required.Stayed on 5th floor and when exiting lift was hit with a damp smell which continued along to the room.Hallway carpet was badly stained .Room had all that was required. Walls were patched up and required fresh painting. Good shower.Great breakfast included in price.

All the staff were just great, so pleasant and so helpful and friendly. We stayed here to go to the Arena and we also stayed in the Holiday Inn Express at Birmingham, and both hotels were immaculate and the staff were brilliant.
