I will likely use again but bring a kettle and skip the breakfast.
Pros:

The staff were nice, the rooms were clean, the location was great.

Cons:

The charge for breakfast was extortionate for what you got. No cooked food. No coffee in the room (though you could take one from breakfast). Lack of plug sockets and as usual with all ibis hotels, dark dingy lighting that was awkward to use and inconducive to function for anything more than not walking into walls.

Good budget friendly hotel.
Pros:

Easy check in, basic rooms (but get what you pay for). Had to ask for a kettle as these aren’t standard in the room but can be supplied upon request. Lovely clean room.

Cons:

1970’s caravan mash up with a prison cell vibe
Pros:

We loved leaving the most.

Cons:

I don’t even know where to start. For a ‘budget’ hotel charging £57 a night (I did find it for £43 post visit which would have mirrored the conditions more than £57), PLUS £28 for 2 days parking for what I could only describe the room as a mash up of a clapped out 1970s caravan and a prison cell. Let me set the scene, the yellow pebble dashed filthy walls, a toilet in a cupboard, a sink next to the bed, direct entry to the caravan plastic shower which was also … next to the bed. Rotten and filthy skirting boards, marked flooring, a bunk bed which was filthy down the sides (my daughter found what we think may have been an object of food - but who knows at this point), her bed was also not made and was almost impossible to make (we booked for 3 people, only the double was made), our mattress was very similar to a caravan front room pull out bed and similar to sleeping on a sheet of MDF, no kettle or ironing board (available for rent), the unit which I think was originally used to blow air out - absolutely filthy with dust, my daughter now is unwell from it. The smell of cigarette smoke cascading through our only ventilation point which was a single window as we were right above reception probably - 10/10.

Ultimately, £43 yes I get it and we only needed a bed for a few nights over a very busy and booked up Easter. However, £57 per night (x2) and £24 parking on a shared car park when Trafford offer it for free - literally don’t bother. Pay the extra and avoid x
