Amazing location, friendly staff and great breakfast.
Pros:

Location was perfect, easy to walk to anywhere within the city centre. Close to shops. Breakfast was amazing. Room was a decent size and the shower was good. Also, the people there are amazing and so friendly. Finally, having a bar downstairs is definitely a big plus.

Amazing! Really good price for location, welcoming staff, very clean, cosy and quiet!
Pros:

This place is awesome; right in the heart of NQ, surprisingly quiet, comfy bed, cosy and clean room, good facilities; tv, hairdryer, air con, good quality shower gels and coffee, lovely decorated.

Cons:

Nothing. Everything was really lovely, at a push, I guess the board next to the side of the bed is a little wobbly which concerned me when I plugged my phone into it but it still charged fine.
There’s a sanitary bag holder in the bathroom that I thought I’d broken but it was just loose on the wall! All in all, highly recommend, really clean and amazing price for the location!

City centre gem with fantastic staff.

Lovely room above the pub. Really clean facilities & modern touches. Surprisingly very quiet for a city centre location & such a busy pub.

Lots of restaurants, bars, shops etc easy walk nearby.Really enjoyed our stay & breakfast was good too. Will return when visiting Manchester again. Thank you

Cons:

Nothing to dislike. Everything excellent.
