There are some cheaper rooms with no windows, fine as long as the AC works. The AC was broken in the first room, not fixed after the first night but was able to be moved to a room with working AC for the second night.

sheets were not that clean, some hair noise from near room started 9 pm, we complained. it started again 2 am, I had to go to reception this time and get a staff member to go with me to room and speak to guests. she said they just arrived 1:30 am, but they were talking loudly, putting loud music on. when I spoke to guest asking kindly to be quiet and respect other people, the staff member said they just arrived, I should not speak to them like that long story, below average, noisy rooms, random guests with no respect to environment and incompetent staff

The hotel is a unique building so most rooms will be different shapes and sizes and it's a bit like a labyrinth trying to find your way around! Our room was spacious with a large bathroom. Location is great, very easy access to Manchester city centre and with parking on site. Great for a short stay. Breakfast was ok, the buffet was regularly refreshed but the hotel doesn't serve pork products and there aren't any a la carte options. We would definitely stay again if going to a concert or other event in the city centre.

Overall the hotel was ok. Little noisy, could here the blinds being closed in next room, thankfully they did not put the tv on. The corridor carpets are ruined, but I guess thats down to inconsiderate guests. The room was mostly clean quite a lot of dust about, mold on bath tiles and green gunge in the bottom of the shower panel. This was once a very nice hotel Breakfast - This is the UK, where was the bacon? The turkey rashers were rank. This woke act alone would prevent me stayng here again The reception staff and the two ladies at breakfast were great. Need to have a word with your cleaner. I pulled the shower panel strip off into the bath hoping she gets the hint for the next occupants.
