Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was comfortable and clean, though a bit lacking in maintenance and updates. The rooms were cozy and inviting, but there was a need for some touch-ups. The fridge was stocked with water and fizzy drinks, a nice touch. However, the room felt stuffy and I had to change due to cleanliness issues, which was inconvenient and not acknowledged with any compensation.
The Ainscow hotel was a pleasant place to stay, offering spacious and well-decorated rooms that provided a relaxing space to unwind before our daily plans. The friendly service, especially from Nikki at reception, added a personal touch to our experience. The location, although not without its flaws, worked well for us with its proximity to various shopping areas and our son's residence nearby. The dining experience was satisfactory, offering a good selection for breakfast. Overall, a decent value for the stay.
Staying at this hotel had its highs and lows. While the lack of windows and poor ventilation in the room made it tough for me, the noise from the busy road outside was also a downside. On the bright side, the staff went out of their way to make my sons' first hotel experience special, although the service wasn't as consistent throughout the day. The location was a bit far from the city center but still manageable with a 15-minute walk. The dining options were underwhelming, especially considering the price paid, but at least some meals were complimentary. Overall, a mixed experience with both positive and negative aspects.
My stay at the hotel was pleasant overall. The rooms were spacious and bright, although a bit bland for the price. The service provided by the restaurant and bar staff was welcoming and helpful. The location was great, with beautiful surroundings and easy access to the city centre. The dining experience offered a good variety of options, but there were minor cleanliness issues. The facilities were decent, but there were some small details that could be improved.
The hotel is in a great location, close to everything and ideal for exploring the city center. The rooms are comfortable, but lack privacy due to the absence of blinds. The service is professional and reassuring, especially with secured parking available. The dining experience could improve with more options, but the quiet atmosphere allows for relaxation.
I absolutely loved this hotel! The rooms were lovely and spacious, had everything we needed, and were really clean and tidy. The service was incredible, especially Nikki the receptionist who was so friendly and helpful. The location was fabulous, and I even got a free upgrade. The dining experience was top-notch with lots of choices. Overall, a great stay despite a few minor cons.
My stay at the hotel was a bit of a mixed bag. The location was convenient, with easy access to the city center, but the rooms were a bit shabby for the hotel's level, making it a challenge to find the right temperature due to noise from the busy road outside. The service was friendly and attentive, although there was a minor hiccup with a delayed meal order. The dining experience was satisfying with a great selection of fresh food, yet some items were not up to par. Overall, it was an average stay considering the price.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The room, although spacious, was disappointing with dead bugs everywhere upon arrival, but the service was exceptional. The location was convenient, just a short walk from central Manchester, and the dining experience left something to be desired.
