Quirky hotel in the centre of Manchester
Pros:

The room was a lovely size and the executive rooms were beautifully decorated. The rooms were themed. It had all the comforts of an executive room . The location was great.

Cons:

The smell of weed in the lifts and the building . The room was really cold. I asked for a spare heater but there wasn’t one. It was a small oil burner for a large room. It was slightly noisy as the windows are old sash windows so not noise proof. We found a brownie underneath the bed..
