It's an all round good budget hotel situated in a quieter area of the quays but near to all amenities. We've stayed here many times over the past 20 years and always look forward to returning.

Staff on reception were very good. The bathroom sink in our room was blocked and the carpets and the side of the bed were very stained which disappointing as we paid quite a lot for our stay this time.

Excellent budget hotel in a great location
Enjoyed a one night stay when going to the Coop Live Arena. The hotel is in a nice location in Salford Quays, a short walk from the tram stop, so convenient for arrival and travelling into and across Manchester.
Check in was very slick. Staff were friendly, courteous and professional.
My room was clean (including the bathroom, which was also in good condition) comfortable (including the bed) a decent size and had a nice view of the wharf. All the expected amenities were provided.
I would definitely return to this hotel in future.

Perfect stay and great location.
We arrived early at the hotel. Reception were very friendly and welcoming. Asked if we were celebrating anything special, it was my birthday. Received complimentary drink of my choice.
We hadn't visited the area before and the staff explained how to get to the various points of interest in the area.
We had the Cornonation Streeet tour booked and that was in easy walking distance and so was the Man United statium.
The location was perfect to local bars and shopping centre.
Breakfast at the hotel was good. The lobby area had comfortable seating and was clean and tidy. The bed was lovely and big and comfortable.
Overall a perfect stay and would not hesitate to book again.
Thank you to the staff.

This hotel is very dated. The room is very old and decor is old-fashioned. It was very clean though. The breakfast in the morning was actually very poor. However all staff were lovely.

Great service
From check in to check out the staff were friendly, efficient and helpful.
After a long day, the reception gave advice on the locale pointing us in the direction of some much needed early food.
The bar staff were great when we returned from the match.
Breakfast service was great despite a lot of guests but everyone seemed happy.
I would recommend this hotel and will book again the next time in Manchester.

Not the best value for money
I don’t think it was worth £140 for the night
When checking in I had to pay for car park at a machine and ended up putting in wrong times, but they did say if I get a ticket just phone them to sort it. So waiting on the outcome
I didn’t go for breakfast till 9 so bacon and sausage wasn’t fresh and bit hard
I forgot my toothbrush and in my room it said just ask at reception, but they had none in stock!
Best thing was the bed it was nice to sleep in.
