I’ll start by saying this is in a great location. Very central and easy to get around Manchester. It’s well furnished and the bed and sofa were comfortable.
After travelling all the way from NYC to Manchester we were disappointed that there wasn’t any bedding. To be clear, this is our error, as we did review the description and see it was stated. No bedding, towels or bath mat. The latter might explain the slight mildew smell as there isn’t much to catch the water from the shower nor is the extractor fan very effective.
Our host was also late to meet us so we were left hanging around for 40 minutes. These things happen but the communication was poor and given all the strict rules the company have about being on time it was a shame.
The Airbnb came with some tea bags, milk pods and sugar. There is a kettle and Nespresso machine. For our 3 night stay we were given just 2 coffee pods. Not sure if that was an oversight or being stingy but just another example of the lack of care.
Finally there is a weird, sticky substance on the floor by the door. Looks like a spill from some maintenance but it really ought to be cleared up and don’t walk on it in your socks!
All in all, I rated this Airbnb OK because that what it is. It’s a budget experience in an expensive part of Manchester. Bring your bedding, towels, bath mat and coffee pods and you’ll be all set!
