Comfortable bed but room needs to pay more attention into cleaning

Townhouse Hotel Manchester
Very convenient location. Bit pricey though, especially the breakfast. Would recommend just buy some breakfast from China Town nearby. Room really quite old but quite clean. Shower was strong and that is very important for me.

Clayton Hotel, Manchester Airport
The hotel was good with excellent efficient transport to airport and train station. My only negative is that the self service card check in resulted in us having no information about meals, checkout times, transport times Wi-Fi etc, I feel this needs to be addressed for future bookings
