Disliked: Staff & service, room comfort
The hotel looked great from the outside however, when we arrived at our room there was issue with the cistern running constantly. Despite raising this issue twice, no-one came to fix it. The cistern ran continually and noisily all night. It was so loud it kept us awake. We spoke to the receptionist the next morning who shrugged her shoulders and said they’d look into it. Very disappointing.

We stayed here because it is a 2 min walk to the Lowry. The metro brought us straight to the hotel from Manchester Picadilly, just 1 min walk. The reception and bar staff were very friendly. The breakfast was good value for the cost and the breakfast staff were exceptional. The bedroom was extremely clean and tidy and the beds were comfy.
