8.6 out of 10, Excellent, (299 reviews)
"Great atmosphere, super smooth and easy to settle in. Very cosy room with curtains across the bed so felt like own little private space, only concern was the getting up and down from the top bunk as there wasn’t much to hold onto but was told by staff that this is a new design and still in process of being rolled out. Overall brilliant stay and would definitely be back"

10/10 Excellent
"A really nice apartment with all the amenities you need. Ideally placed to see around Salford Quays and quite near the centre of Manchester. The apartment host was very helpful and ensured my stay was ok. Will definitely book again next year."
