Family-focused reviews and ratings
This hotel was surprisingly great for its price! The staff were incredibly friendly, going above and beyond to ensure I had a pleasant stay. The location is unbeatable for airport access!
I found the hotel to be a good value option for a short stay near Manchester Airport. While some areas are a bit dated, the friendly staff and convenient location more than compensated. Happy hour at the bar was a plus!
A decent stay overall! The location was great for the airport, and while the hotel itself is a bit dated, the staff were lovely and the room was clean enough. I appreciated the adjustable radiator and blackout curtains.
Solid choice for an overnight stay near the airport. The room was fine, and the staff were friendly, making it easy to access the airport.
This place is a reliable option for early flights. Clean rooms, great staff, and a convenient location. I've stayed here before and will do so again.
