Awful
Pros:

Parking is a across the road

Cons:

Ridiculously noisy room - requested and phoned ahead to request a quiet room but room was anything but ! Facing the Main Street and only a couple of floors up. Didn’t sleep a wink all night with the constant traffic noise. Was up in Manchester the night before a special event but day ruined given that I hadn’t slept all night.
Why if requesting a quiet room they can’t give you one at the back of the hotel or higher up - we weren’t late checking in .
In Addition the desk lamp does not work, so hard to do make up - looks like it’s never even been wired in

In short would never stay again.
