Tom is an amazing host. He works at helping out with every detail without being too intrusive. I was in Manchester for 2.5 weeks dealing with the grief of the death of my mother and Tom was so helpful and understanding.
His apartment is terrific. The location is prime. It´s next door to Manchester University, Royal Northern College of Music, the hospitals and only minutes away from Manchester Centre by road, bus or even walking. It takes 20 minutes to walk to great restaurants in Castlefield.
The apartment is large, 2 bedroom, and spacious, clean, very bright and even though located in a very urban area, there´s wonderful trees with blossom to gaze upon outside the living room windows.
Tom also gave us a warm welcome leaving breakfast, a bottle of wine, chocolates because it was easter and free coupons to events and restaurants, etc. in Manchester.
I´d highly recommend Tom´s apartment for short or long stays.
