Clean, Convenient, and Friendly!

⸻ I had a wonderful stay at this Manchester hotel! The location was perfect—close to everything I needed, with great access to public transportation and local attractions. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, always ready to help with a smile. The room was clean, well-appointed, and had all the essentials for a comfortable stay. The only minor downside was that the beds weren’t the most comfortable, but it certainly didn’t take away from the overall great experience. I’d definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone visiting Manchester
