A very pleasant and hassle-free stay.
The house is a lovely, spacious Edwardian semi in a leafy area, with a relaxed feel and period features. It's very convenient for the Christie hospital, within seconds' walk of bus routes to the city centre, and a few hundred meters from the tram stop.
The room was not en-suite, but this was no problem at all because I had exclusive use of a very good adjacent bathroom. Everything was very clean and tidy.
I was given a warm and unobtrusive welcome by Bob, offered a cup of tea and given directions for where I wanted to go in the evening. Breakfast was a selection of cereals, a nice fruit salad with yoghurt, and some delicious home-made bread.
All in all, a very pleasant and convenient stay. Will stay there again!
