The facilities met expectations with a few areas needing improvement.
The hotel may have some dated elements in the rooms, but the beds are incredibly comfortable.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The room setup was as requested with a camp bed already in place, but unfortunately, it seemed like the room hadn't been cleaned in weeks and had an unpleasant smell, probably due to the unflushed toilet and unexpected findings.
I couldn't try the sauna because it was extremely hot despite the radiator being off until the late afternoon. The hot mince pies at the service seemed tasty, but the customer service at the leisure facilities was lacking. The location had its ups and downs, being a feel-good place for friends but with some parking issues. Dining was good but could offer more variety, and the hotel facilities were decent.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, despite some signs of tired furnishing, offered a very good and extremely comfortable night's sleep. The service, particularly on reception, was professional, and we appreciated the free drink voucher. The location, although pretty with plenty of flowers, was very pleasant and relaxing, especially for afternoon tea, and its proximity to Manchester Airport was convenient. The dining experience was good value for money, with a nice fresh choice of pastries and excellent quality coffee. Facilities were satisfactory overall.
