Paul was a great host, helping me with my bags on arrival, recommending the best take-aways and inviting me on a local walk with a friend. He was very friendly but also happy to leave me to my own devices when I wanted. The flat was nicely decorated and felt homely, but unfortunately has a bit of a damp problem. It also looked like the carpet in my bedroom hadn't been vacuumed in quite a while, and the kitchen wasn't particularly clean. The location was perfect for me, working at Salford Royal, but would be easy to get into the centre of Manchester for shopping etc too. The flat felt safe and as it is set back from the road and on the opposite side of the building, it is nice and quiet. Overall I would recommend staying at Paul's :)
