It's in Eccles, which is a town about 7 km away from Manchester. You would need a buss (67 or 100) to get to the city centre. On the plus side, there is a Tessco supermarket just around the corner.
The bug issue for us was the horrible smell in the bedroom. Smelt like a mixture of urine and sweat and in quite worn out condition overall.
On the plus side, the host is very responsive and easy to communicate with. There is a Tesco supermarket just around the corner. Big TV in the living room.
