Fantastic location. The apartment was very well equipped, good coffee in the room. Comfy bed, easy to control heating, choice of a bath or walk in shower. Friendly and efficient staff at reception.

Great late afternoon and evening before an early start in the City. Bonus, the weather was ace!
Pros:

Everything was perfect, really easy to check in and the space was fantastic. Large kitchen dining area, separate room and bathroom. Bed comfy, TV and the ability to cast even better.

Cons:

Nothing to be honest, if I am being picky maybe a couple more coffee capsules, but its a massive bonuns to even have them and the machine!

A lovely stay with great location!
Pros:

The staff were so friendly. My daughter and I arrived close to 10pm..tired after a long travel. The hotel was literally at the train station so we were happy about that. We were upgraded to a two bedroom. The floor was quiet and the room exceptionally cleaned. A welcome sight to our tired bodies. I loved the fact that we had heated towel rails so we could reuse our towels. The rooms were spacious and even though it was right at the train station and we were on the first floor, it was so quiet we had the most amazing sleep. The gym was also on our floor, we didn't even realise until we stood at the elevators the next day. We were able to walk to the Co-op Live for our event and there is plenty of walkable sightseeing and shopping around the Picadilly area - so a really good location. Wi-fi was good too. We really enjoyed our stay.

Cons:

This was a two bedroom with one ensuite shower and one main bathroom. The only niggle for me personally is that shower-bath in the main bathroom tended to be unsafe. This one had a large glass shield that was half of the length of the bath which seems like no issue but ended up being one for me climbing in and out. Small reminder as most hotels have USB charging stations- this one does not. Just remember to bring charging cables with plugs.

Clean and comfy
Pros:

Super clean, central and comfortable. Happy to get an upgrade to a 2 bed apartment too

Cons:

The corridors smelt a bit of fried food! Maybe from the commercial units at ground level?

Fabulous base for a visit to a great city.
Pros:

The apartment was really spacious and well-equipped: if I'd stayed for more than one night, I'd have loved to cook in the kitchen which had everything needed to produce really decent meals, and it was good to have a Nespresso machine rather than just slightly sad sachets of instant coffee! It was great to have a bath as well as the opportunity to shower. The staff on reception were particularly lovely and helpful. The location really couldn't be more convenient for the station, and I was impressed that, despite being in so central and vibrant area of the city, it was beautifully quiet in the accommodation. I'd unhesitatingly recommend this place to anyone travelling to Manchester.

Cons:

It would have been good if there'd been a slightly bigger selection of snacks available for sale in the lobby area, maybe including things like instant porridge pots/small packages of cereals or even fruit for those chaotic types like me who forgot to bring breakfast essentials!
