The lift is always out of order. The vibe is nice. The bed is a bit tight. Near to Deansgate. I suggest the hostel to put on a notice board more information about the area eg suggestions as to where to go, where to take the free bus etc Ovrrall is nice experience!

1st timers staying at a hostel in a city. Booked 6 people over 2 rooms.Free parking was brilliant. Lovely modern clean hostel with bar and cafe. We had an ensuite room which was great. Not being used to YHA we didnt bring things we needed but it was only a one night stay. Breakfast was a £10 said unlimited but was not a buffet had to wait a while and not all food items available so disappointed. On the whole good value clean stay. The receptionist on saturday afternoon was very helpful whilst we encounted a few issues at check in.

Maybe you're into hostelling, realistically for the price per night you're better off staying in a proper hotel instead of a prison cell. No TV's in private room, accessible rooms are in a dormitory with others sharing, private rooms are literally a box, with a terrible mattress fit for nobody, literally inches thick, both me and my partner woke up in pain, what was meant to be a few nice nights away turned into back ache and leaving earlier on our planned trip. Had attitude from staff for asking for an extra pillow for my partner due to him having bad back and neck, was treated awful at check in too, staff were iattentive and rude. Honestly for the price you pay there is better options out there.

Great place, good room, although it is close to two main train lines and tram routes, but we were so tired after a busy day we fell straight to sleep - Room was very warm as it is June and there are signs asking guests to leave the windows open for ventilation (Which I suspect are from Covid days and not to keep you cool); We left one window open as the noise from outside would have been too much otherwise. Mattresses are basic, but comfortable - Bedding is provided, as are clothes hangers, an electric free standing fan (Too noisy to leave on whilst asleep) toilet roll and hand soap. We had the Continental Breakfast for £6 PP - Bargain and worth the price! :)
