The apartment was clean and ideally located. It could use some additional items (drinking glasses, larger cooking pots, a new spatula) but otherwise a great place

This is a great neighborhood - the Marble Arch Inn, National football museum, pubs/restaurants with TVs for football matches, Victoria station, Arndale shopping, and Picadilly Gardens. spacious apartment with nice kitchen. Secure apartment complex easy to take the stairs and also elevator. Our only difficulty was connecting with property owner to revise how to connect for check-in. Original plan for afternoon meeting had to be revised when our plane was cancelled due to mechanical issues. We let property owner know via email as well VRBO website/chatroom, but we never heard back. When we arrived early Saturday morning (instead of Friday afternoon) we still had not had any communication. After an hour of waiting at Manchester Airport, Tobias finally connected by email. He was kind enough to meet us at the property at 8am, but he did not have the key and we took a nice walk to where the key was stored. Tobias filled us in on the apartment and was knowledgable about the building, the apartment, and what to do in Manchester. After check in, this visit to Manchester was great. The apartment has high ceilings with great windows and natural light when the sun was up. We walked most everywhere, except trip to University of Manchester and a jaunt to Chester by train. Check out was easy and we have fond memories.
