Would definitely recommend, was very clean and tidy and had everything we needed. Great location in terms of getting to city centre as well as Coop Live which was only a 20min walk away.

GuestApril 2026

Great location that perfectly suited our needs. The scaffolding has gone now so great views for miles.

Buena zona, muy tranquila. El pequeño problema es que actualmente están en rehabilitación y, si tienes el sueño ligero, es posible que te despierten. Buena ubicación, cerca de la estación de Piccadilly (a 20 minutos andando) y a 25 minutos a pie del Etihad Stadium.

Bra!

GuestMarch 2026

We had a short but good stay in Manchester, flying in to watch the footie. The flat is in a perfect location as the Northern Quarter is only a 10 minute walk away and getting to Piccadilly Station takes around 15 minutes. If you want the tram stop New Islington is right next door…

GuestFebruary 2026

Pros - great flat and location, very accessible to tram which is right opposite to the building and shops are just 5 mins walk. The kitchen was in good shape and everything worked as expected. Improvement- could have had more supplies for wash, bath and dish cleaning, for longer…

GuestFebruary 2026
