We booked this hotel for two nights as we had an appointment in Manchester and needed somewhere functional to stay. On arrival in our room I used the bathroom - no soap. Spoke to the cleaner who said their supplier had not delivered them so was given extra shampoo to use as soap! The fan in the bathroom didn't work... More

We went on a Groupon offer and when we got there, we were told we were a no-show from the previous night. When I showed the receptionist the email with the correct date, she apologised and re booked on a new date saying we would have the best room in the hotel. Well, if the family room we were given,...

This is a very basic hotel with very basic facilities. Don't expect great service, although the service I received during my visit was perfectly good. The place needs a tidy up; it's looking rather tired. The restaurant was totally empty except for me, so I got good service and the food was really good and nicely presented. Breakfast the following... More

aweful place, over priced for what you get and trust me it really isnt clean, they have problems with flooding which have left an un-pleasent odour in the gym areas. The hotel itself is grubby and the cleaning is not done properly no wonder they have gone into administration. The owner has an awful reputation as being a rude and... More

We stayed here for one night on a voucher scheme. Comments on here made us think is was going to be a dead loss but the reality was completely the opposite! The staff were busy but always pleasant and helpful. Our room for example had a flickering bathroom light but it was changed within 15 minutes for a new bulb... More

After showing him my booking confirmation from "late rooms" he tried to blame them, even though i have used them before and had no problems..... I had booked two rooms and asked for them to be...

We stayed here on a groupon offer but even with the discount it wasn't worth it. The best bits are the staff and the breakfast was OK. We had been dreading breakfast after our evening meal experience the night before. I have never had inedible ice cream before, so cheap & nasty it didn't even melt. Our room had a... More
