Great budget hotel!
Pros:

How fresh it felt walking in, both in reception and my room, the staff were friendly and helpful also.
My room had a view which was nice!

Cons:

The car park I couldn’t find (as I don’t drive around Manchester much!) but one I found it it was fine.
There was only two plug sockets which were not near the bed (fortunately I have a 3m charger so it didn’t bother me to much)
One of my walls was a little dirty but again I only noticed that it didn’t really hinder my stay!

Pros:

For the price (£65 inc breakfast) there wasn’t much to dislike. Good location for where we needed to be, clean & comfortable. Breakfast was decent.

Cons:

Definitely a budget option, things were a bit tired & basic but nothing unexpected. Bathroom being in the room was slightly odd given there was enough space for this not to be the case. Also hard to use the toilet if you’ve got long legs as it’s in a tiny cupboard!

A good option for an affordable stay in Manchester.
Pros:

This hotel is in a great location just a short walk from two tram stops and Salford Quays. The staff were super friendly and very helpful and the free tea and coffee station was a really nice touch as there are no kettles in the rooms.
The room itself was a standard ibis room, clean & relatively comfortable. It was affordable which is quite hard to come by in Manchester these days.

Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

The toilet is so small,the lights are poor and the room is not very clean, I stayed In many hotels and this one was not the best, the fire alarm 🚨🚨 went few times once in the middle of the night and once early hours of the morning, they offered me a breakfast 🥞 to compensate for the disturbance, over all I won't book unless I am desperate. No

Pros:

The staff are very nice and helpful. It is a short walk to Salford Queys, the War Museum and the tram is just accross the road. It could be noisy with the window opened at night because a main road passes in front of the hotel and tram line, too. Quite basic really but a nice place to stay a night or two overall! : - )

Cons:

The room table was a bit sticky, not the first time either.
