Καλό για 1 βράδυ
Pros:

Η τουαλέτα πολυ καθαρή,και η ντουζιέρα κατάλληλη για ευχάριστο ντουζ.Πολυ ευγενικό προσωπικό.

Cons:

Δεν μου άρεσε που δεν ανοιγε το παράθυρο στο δωμάτιο ούτε και στα χωλ,να αισθανθούμε λίγο φρέσκο αέρα. Το δωμάτιο λίγο μικρό, αλλά για 1 βράδυ OK

Pleasant stay in central Manchester
Pros:

Spacious room, comfortable bed.

Cons:

The fact I couldn't open the curtains without office workers seeing me. Suggest you add sheers to thr windows to provide more privacy.
