It is what is, stop bashing the place!

Listen, I read lots of really bad comments about this place, but I needed a cheap, clean room in the centre of Manchester for one night. Did I get it ? yes. Was it cheap ? yes. Was it clean ? yes. Was it warm ? yes. Was it noisy ? no. Did it serve eggs benedict for breakfast ? No. This place does what it says it does, it's no frilly and it's not plush, it's a decent cheap room in the middle of Manchester City Centre. So, if you want more than that, please go to your Hilton or Radisson or whatever and pay 3 or 4 times as much and stop giving this place such a bad time in terms of reviews.

Maroon paint and purple neon

In a funny way I quite liked this place and preferred it to the slick anonymoty of other budget hotels. However, it bore no ressemblance to the photos, I think the social space was being redone when I was there because there were lots of builders and scoffolding about. I had to change rooms because the lights didn't work in the room I'd been given, but the room I was swapped to smelt really strongly of paint, which was quite unpleasant. It was huge and airy, with a huge red stripe across the celing and down the wall and purple neon light, so a bit like sleeping in a repurposed nightclub - which of course, might be what some people are after. The next morning I walked downstairs and then realised that I had maroon gloss paint on my hands because the banisters had be painted. A wet paint sign would have been useful. My top tips, make sure you have your own tea, coffee, milk etc because none of that is provided. Bring earplugs unless you are good at sleeping in noisy places.

TERRIBLE SERVICE

We stayed in a double room. When we got to the room there were no soap in the bathroom, no toilet plunger and no trash bin… When I went to the reception she said there was nothing she could do and that we should used the floors bathroom instead until morning and she would write a note to get it fixed. Another guest gave me a soap when I was was about to leave to the room which helped for the night. Next morning and nothing had happened. I talked to the reception again and they wrote another note to get it fixed. NOTHING HAPPENED and we never got any of the stuff that was missing. I had to go and ask for toilet paper since it ran out and there was nothing but the one roll, reception said they would bring more but we only got one which also ran out. The paper was VERY THIN. The morning of checkout we asked if we could stay 2 hours longer and was told it would be 15 pounds which we agreed to. But they had no way of paying apart from them writing down your credit card information and billing it to you which I was not comfortable with…. The girl in the reception was incredibly rude and ignored me multiple times talking to friends refusing to come up with a solution so we just decided to leave earlier. Terrible stay and I dont recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Manchester.

Over expectations

Went there for 3 nights with my girlfriend for the Oasis concert. We had low expectations since they offered a room for such a good price. However when we get the keycard for our room we got surprised. A big comfortable size bed, a clean bathroom and an AC, all we could ask for really. For this price and such a good location in the city, you can not ask for more! Really helpful staff with 24/7 service! Highly recommending, and I will come back!

The hostel phoned me from a foreign number over WhatsApp to cancel the booking just three days before the stay. Mindful of scams, I tried to find the property's contact details but they are not even listed on Google Maps. Nobody replied when I phoned using the number listed by Expedia. The hostel offered no compensation and made no attempt to help me find alternatives. It then took four attempts over the course of one week to organise a refund via Expedia. A really poor experience all round.

An unexpected good experience

First time booking a 'hostel'. Pleasantly surprised with accommodation. Great vibrant area of Manchester to be in, with loads of restaurants, pubs, cafes etc. Expected more internal late night noise, but didn't happen. Only negative was loud music immediately underneath us until 230am on Friday & Saturday night of stay. Reception staff were friendly and attentive. All in all - and unexpected good experience!
