Great central location. We stayed at Charlotte's place for 2 nights and were able to easily walk to and from Manchester Arena and visit (on foot) some great bars and restuarants. Yes, the location is a little noisy (from outside - not from apartment neighbours) - but as Charlotte makes this clear in her listing we came equipped with ear plugs! We made use of the sofa bed too which was very comfy. Good communication before stay made for a very easy and enjoyable time.
