Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Breakfast can get busy — While the breakfast itself is decent, it's self-service and one guest noted it could be problematic during peak times.
- Finding the hotel can be tricky — The hotel is on a side street, and a guest initially got lost following written directions before realising it was a 3-minute walk from Victoria station.
- No on-site parking — There's no parking listed, which could be a drawback for guests driving into Manchester.
- Pets are not allowed — The hotel does not accommodate pets, so travellers with animals will need to look elsewhere.
