Disliked: Staff & service
I booked this property as an hotel, actually it’s a property house with no staff present at site, multiple occupants self managing like air b&b. The online response was quick and good however, over all condition of property was scary and noisy. The cleanliness was terrible the bedding didn’t look like clean, no room chair table not only only but broken carpet in room terribly fitted, toilet very small size. I would like to upload picture but no option to upload.

Could do better for the price

Walked in and there was a smell that lingered on especially in the corridor throughout my stay. As a solo traveller I didn’t feel safe as I found two people stood at the entrance as I was checking in As for cleanliness goodness me a bit of paint would do. Plus some laundry services press beddings or buy beddings that don’t show terrible creases which straight away are off putting as they looked like unclean bedding I wasn’t expecting a five star service for the price I paid but equally it is not nice finding an empty water bottle under the bed clearly from the last guest. It’s not the hotels fault but finding the toilet not flashed a few times was off putting. Thank goodness I had my shower gel and apologies if this was not part of the deal but all I found was men’s shampoo left from past guests am guessing. My door lock was lose and this added to my feeling a bit unsafe. I stay in quite a few air b and bs and apartments but unfortunately this made me feel a bit unsafe. For the value paid I at least expected good cleanliness, fresh smell and a feeling of safety. I love running and whenever I go to new places I take my running gear. On this occasion I felt unsafe to go for a run in the neighbourhood. Thank you 🙏

Well there is nobody, no employees which I've found a little bit unsettling at first. I use this hotel just to sleep as I'm commuting to Manchester for my work.. so having a "special" place like that do not bother me !!!... The ONLY real negative thing for me was the dirty bath tube. Apart from that , the place is all right for me, may come back again!!!!

Very basic hotel the smoke alarm wasn’t working the bath was dirty (although it was a shared bathroom!) there was a good range of products shampoo shower gel etc no tea bags ! No one at a reception desk it was not a manned hotel bed wasn’t very comfortable but it was just a cheap cheerful hotel and you get what you pay for so overall it wasn’t a bad place to stay to get your head down
