Hi Olu, I'd like to say a very big thank you for letting me and my guide dog Brier stay at your apartment. It was very clean, everything was brilliant. It was a little out of town but not to far and I hink if I'd tried a bit harder we could have done some walking instead of getting taxi's. All facilities were clean and worked extremely well. I hope that I can stay again with you soon.Lizzie and Brier.

Situated in Manchester and only 4.4 km from Heaton Park, Rainsough Cottage Guest House - Sleeps upto 8 with ensuite - Free Parking & WiFi features accommodation with garden views, free WiFi and free...

We booked this accommodation so as to be much nearer to Manchester Airport for an early flight the following morning. We needed to leave the place at 4am All was well from the moment we booked in until we tried to get to sleep at 10pm. Up until that point, we'd seen nobody else at the property other than a dodgy looking man in a car that drove onto the property and turned round and left immediately around 5pm. At around 10.05 pm a couple arrived and they were obviously in the room above us. A little noisy, we heard them having a shower or two, moving things around etc. That seemed to die down by midnight, but then there were comings and goings through the whole night, including a guy sitting in his car running his engine from 2am to around 2.30 am, some lads chatting and laughing loudly right outside our window at 3.20 am. We decided to get up and leave. It was more than a little intimidating to say the least. Even at 4am as we were about to drive off, a small car turned up and a young driver got out, clearly the worse for wear, so to speak. We hurriedly left as we felt uncomfortable. In the haste, after checking we had everything (we even emptied the bin), we left our USB phone charger in one of the bedside sockets. To sum up, it was a peaceful experience from 3om to 10pm, then all hell broke loose. Clean place. I wiped two long hairs off of the shower cubicle glass, which wasn't a big issue. Owner had excellent communication with regard to keycodes etc. On the basis of our experience (I had no sleep at all), we can't recommend this property. We haven't complained. A shame about our charger. It was our best one.

4 mereside walk is situated in Manchester, 1.2 km from Manchester Central, 1.6 km from Bridgewater Hall, and 1.8 km from Opera House Manchester.

Great host, super comfy private room with a nice window. It was easy to reach on public transport even with heavy luggage - super close to a bus stop with services direct to Picadilly. It was always quiet and I slept really well. The shared bathroom was never a problem. After messaging the host, I was even able to check in a few hours early, which was very lucky & very helpful. Thank you!!

Shrewsbury 1 is located in Manchester, 2.6 km from Bridgewater Hall, 2.7 km from Opera House Manchester, and 2.8 km from Whitworth Art Gallery.

It was near the city centre and the room was quite large. The water temperature was nice and warm since it was freezing outside and the temperature in the room was good when we figured out how to work the radiator. The family was nice and they recommended we visit their noodle shop which was also really good. Although we had an issue with the check-in/check-out the family was understanding and helpful.

    Great location in the heart of Manchester. Room, towels and bedding were spotless. Was much quieter than I expected from a city centre room. Vending machine was only £2 for a coffee. Iron and hair dryer was available from reception at no extra charge. Staff friendly and helpful

    Really lovely house in a quiet neighbourhood, took us about 30 minutes to walk into the city centre but it’s a pleasant flat road in. Vikram and Sheetal were lovely hosts, very respectful of the space and left plenty of treats and water. It was a very hot day when we stayed so we were thrilled to have a fan in the room. The other amenities like the microwave and fridge were great, and the toilet was well-stocked with what you may need and very clean! Overall, couldn’t recommend more for our short stay in the city!

    When i entered, the property was clearly well taken care of. As well as the convenient location. Ubers are pretty cheap from the City Centre £5-8. As well as the host. Very fast to respond.
