Alison's place is airy, filled with light, and tastefully decorated. Powerful shower, comfortable beds, and a cute dining area at the front bay windows overlooking the garden and street. We stayed here for three nights, specifically for a gig at the University of Manchester's student union, from which we walked back to the apartment. There are loads of shops just down the street, and some nice pubs within walking distance. I would happily book Alison's place again next time we're in Manchester.
