All in all it wasn't the best budget place ive stayed at, I've had better facilities at a camping site. Everything is extra to pay for, car park, kettle, tea or coffee in the room. Hairdryer etc are also extra to pay for. Staff where abrupt and not very helpful, to the extent of staff been rude and at a point insulting. Manager was considered and helpful in dealing with the issues. Will take the offer up on returning for a second visit and changing this revenue.

This truly is a budget hotel, ended up here as the area was heavily booked during my work trip… i would avoid in future. My toilet was literally a cupboard. Bed and pillows very uncomfortable. My room was shockingly hot!

Disappointed with the Basics, Despite Friendly Sta

I recently stayed at ibis Manchester Salford Quays and, unfortunately, I was quite surprised—and not in a good way—by the level of budgeting here, especially when comparing it to my recent stay at ibis Crewe. The room felt extremely basic. There were no standard amenities that I’ve come to expect from ibis hotels—no tea or coffee tray, no kettle (you had to buy one, which was a first for me), and not much else besides the towels. The room itself was also smaller than other ibis branches, making it feel cramped and underwhelming. That said, I do want to mention that the staff were genuinely lovely and very helpful—they were the highlight of the stay and made the experience feel a bit more pleasant. Overall, while I understand this is a budget hotel, the cutbacks here went too far. I expected more consistency across ibis locations, and this one didn’t live up to that expectation.

I did not stay there. The booking was cancelled well in advance - despite this I have received several e-mails from both the hotel and yourselves, requesting payment, asking for and providing more information. Shocking lack of admin by both parties.

I only wanted a budget room for 2 night stay and although this was budget it was very basic. Towels were provided but nothing more. I was hoping for at least a kettle to make a coffee in the room. I didn't order breakfast as it was continental and not to my taste but I least expected as a paying guest to be able to get a complimentary coffee but i had to pay for that! Although not much around, there was a Starbucks, McDonalds and a pub opposite and it is located directly across from the Salford Quays tram station around 20 mins or so into Manchester central and station. It did the job for a couple of nights so happy with that.

Great location; close enough to downtown centre that it’s cheap/quick to access but far enough away to be peaceful of an evening. Close to old trafford too.

A very basic room

A very basic room with minimal facilities e.g. a plastic stool was the only chair. There wasn’t even a cup or glass in which to put water for swallowing my medications. Not much to ask is it?
