Good location for the Lowry
Pros:

Good location within walking distance of the Lowry, which is why we booked this hotel.

Cons:

The pillows were too big/plump and too hard, my partner had to sleep without a pillow because of the discomfort of using it (she sleeps on her back).

Rubbish. I'm Glad that I ended up staying at another hotel nearby.
Pros:

Nothing...... The room felt like a prison room.

Cons:

I didn't like anything...... In fact it made my Mental Health worse.

Room was dirty. No plugs sockets near bed to use medical equipment. I was unable to stay in the hotel and ended up to book another hotel in Salford Quays for a better night sleep.
