Liked: Cleanliness
Very small living space, and while the kitchen was new and glossy it was black and very hard to see and use easily. Needed the torch to see the functions of appliances. Designer items placed in the small room which meant even less usable space. Yoga mat provided but no floor space to put it down. Lift was out of action for the duration of our stay and the restaurant was closed.

We stayed in a one bedroom studio with our 13 month old. It was wonderful to be able to put him to bed early and then have an evening to ourselves in the apart-hotel room. The location couldn’t be better. We loved waking all over Manchester and exploring different neighborhoods. The take-out options nearby are great. All in all, a great stay! And there’s a Tesco across the street for food staples!
