The accommodations and the hosts were a true delight, and I would stay with them again in an instant.
Before the trip, Bob gave us advice on how to efficiently use the public transportation system. The residence really is a 4-minute walk from the Metrolink station. When we were in Manchester, their specific street sign was either missing or broke, so, after 10 minutes walking, we asked a postal worker for directions. Very friendly - we found it with no trouble... we had just walked on the main street a bit too far.
The room was clean, and the bathroom was everything we needed. Because the room is upstairs, it was quite private. Bob gave us a tourist map of the city, which includes pop-outs of major areas and all the public transportation stops. They provided us with a lovely breakfast in the morning.
Wonderful stay!! Highly, highly recommended :)
