John was very kind and helpful host (he even picked me up at the train station!),
he made me feel like I was at home.
The flat is at walking distance to city centre and I really enjoyed getting back home by walking through the Northern Quarter (5 mins).
The apartment it is quiet, and the en-suite private bathroom is another added value. For somebody the only little drawback might be the fact one cannot open the room's window (the building has been build with fixed glasses on that side), but I did not suffered any inconvenience for that.
I would definitely recommend it to anyone planning a short stay in Manchester.
