the hotel was noisy, hoovers going at 11pm, broken sleep due to parties of people and the football

I’ve stayed here before, it’s ok if you want a relatively cheap but decent overnight stay close to the AO arena. However the room was freezing and when shown how to put the heater on the heater was way too small to heat the room up even a whole night on full blast only managed to take the edge off. Fortunately there was an extra bed cover I could use so I could actually sleep. The hotel now boasts EV charging and the points are there but the parking in front of it isn’t designated for charging, which meant were three cars parked in front of the charge points the whole time I was there non of which were electric so I charged up in Stockport instead.

Great location for AO Arena

Place was mouldy walls and carpets dust and spider webs everywhere hasnt been cleaned in months avoid

24 x 7 check in, 10kw charger for EV cost £30 for nearly 300 miles in 5 hours, convenient walk to Manchester Arena, quiet.

Check in was awkward as the person checking is in didn’t seem to understand English very well & even though I spelt out my name he still got it wrong & couldn’t find booking , we had to wait for manager to come and sort it ! Doors are very loud when closing so all night was doors banging , bedding is too heavy , a duvet would be better than a heavy bed spread , ok for the price

They have allowed people to park in disabled parking spaces without displaying a badge

I found the atmosphere comfortable and relaxed, it seemed very good in terms of general cleanliness, the room was a decent size and well laid out and for me it was in a convenient location with the AO arena about 10 mins walk away and pubs/places to eat within a similar distance. My only minor criticisms of the room itself is the bathroom felt just a tad cramped and the room probably could've been a bit better ventilated - there was only a small window in the corner which could only be opened slightly. The weather wasn't hot so it wasn't a significant issue but I found the room could get a little bit warm. I would also recommend eating and drinking out really rather than in the hotel itself, though I only had the breakfast one morning and not an evening meal but it was £11.95 for a full english (if you just want cereal, etc then that's complimentary) and what you got was relatively small for the price and the bar doesn't offer the best selection or value either so eating and drinking in the hotel is OK in an 'emergency' I would say but if you have the time there are better options within a 10 minute walk. Overall though this worked fine for me and generally the hotel ticked all the boxes I was looking for and I will likely stay there again in future, having a bit more knowledge of the local area.
