The hotel had clean and comfortable rooms, but the noise disturbed my second night's sleep. The service was helpful and the staff were pleasant. It is located conveniently for transportation and nearby amenities, though the safety aspect was a concern. The dining offerings were very basic. Overall, it was an okay stay with some positives and negatives.

The hotel had clean and comfortable rooms, but the stay was marred by disruptive noise in the early hours and a faulty fire alarm in the morning, leading to a lack of proper rest. The location was convenient for trips to Trafford Centre, but odd with its office block setting. Although the service was friendly, there were challenges in getting assistance and refunds. The dining experience had some shortcomings despite ample choices. The stay left us feeling tired and unwell, detracting from what should have been a relaxing experience.
