Liked: Cleanliness
Room was great, clean and tidy. I really enjoyed how spacious it was. The bed was very comfy. Few issues: I couldn’t control my thermostat. It was set to [CENTRAL] temperature. I had to go down to reception to get this changed to a colder temperature, but then I woke up freezing. The Wifi was hardly usable, the speed was extremely slow. The service in the restaurant this morning for breakfast was very slow.

Immediately on arrival I noticed that the entrance areas were not very clean. (We entered via the lift from the car park). This included stains on the lift doors and buttons, as well as hairs on carpet in the lift. The general condition of the suite I had booked was very dissapointing and rather shabby. There were loose skirting boards in the bathroom, the curtains were ripped at the bottom, the furniture/floorboards were marked and damaged, damaged bedding, stains on bathroom walls/tops and yellow stained bathmatts. The stay became even worse when we went for breakfast the next morning and found out that we could only have a continental breakfast and that we would have to pay for a full English Breakfast. This meant that we had to walk into town for the two mornings we were staying at the hotel. The trip was supposed to be a pleasant celebration of our anniversary, but it turned into a truly miserable experience. The suite we had booked was £250 a night and unfortunately what we found was neglect and the lack of attention to detail, which can make a stay special. Some money was refunded after we complained but no amount of money will repay the disappointment me and my partner felt throughout the stay.

Great hotel in a good location. Food is excellent, room was spacious and clean, modern decor although there seemed to be a lot of wasted space? Staff were pleasant and helpful.

Having stayed at Manchester Abode a number of years ago, we were looking forward to our stay. Sadly this Abode feels like it is on its last legs. We were told by reception upon arrival that there was a company sell off and this is one if two abodes remaining. The property is poorly maintained, and our room has a stench of drains and the breakfast buffet was very limited off menu. Staff seem understandably demoralised. Not recommended. Sad to report as very hapoy memories of Manchester now sold off.
