This was an ideal Airbnb experience for me. The house is located 10 minutes’ walk from Stockport Station and even closer to the 192 bus, which runs into central Manchester all day. The house itself is a large, beautiful duplex tucked away just off a main road, and Oriana lives here with her two daughters and two cats, all of whom are very friendly indeed. The interior is Pinterest-worthy and marvellously maintained. The ground floor has a half bath, two guest bedrooms and a common kitchen and living area, where everyone cooks and hangs out. The first floor has a full bath and four bedrooms, where Oriana, her daughters and other guests reside. The bathrooms, bathtub and shower are impeccably clean, which I am personally quite sensitive to. The double bedroom I occupied was quite spacious with beautiful crown moulding, an enormous, south-facing window, a desk, warm-coloured lighting, plants, a fireplace, multiple large mirrors and plenty of storage. The bedding was wonderfully heavy and warm. During my stay, several people came through that were regular guests, which is quite reassuring, and one of whom I became friends with and will be seeing again in London. I am happy I found this place and hope to be back next time I have business in Manchester.
