A modern well run hotel in Manchester with good staff & reasonable prices.
Pros:

A modern well run hotel which I would highly recommend for a one or two night stay. Great clean facilities & rooms, ample of car parking & good value for money restaurant.

Cons:

Would be great if they could offer room service - however there is no objection to taking restaurant food back to your room. Also if they had the option of booking a bigger room it would facilitate doing more work in the room & enjoying the stay further. No criticism only suggestions.

Stay at the holiday inn
Pros:

It was very clean and staff were friendly

Cons:

The people in the room opposite me was very noisy the whole night at all different hours of the night. Banging the doors talking very loud. But the hotel was fully booked so I had no other choice to deal with it. I was woken up at least 5 times by them and there was no kettle in the room it was a lot of money for no kettle
