We had a great stay at Gillian's place. Her flat is spacious, homely and well located in the centre of the city. She left us a loaf of sliced bread, milk, jams and breakfast cereals which was a really nice touch. The room I stayed in had a very generous-sized bed, which was very comfortable. Her communication was great in advance of our stay - my only issue was receiving a message from Gillian after our stay that blamed us for breaking her blinds, which just simply didn't happen. Having said that, after I explained that they worked fine during our visit, there hasn't been an issue - and I'd still happily stay at Gillian's place during any upcoming visits to see friends in Manchester, and it was such a lovely base for a couple of days. Thanks again for everything.
