Alma Lodge - excellent choice
I booked this last minute and was really pleasantly surprised. The hotel is a bit dated and in need of an update but my room was exceptionally clean and comfortable.

Birthday weekend
This is the second time at this hotel. The staff are helpful and friendly. The beds while spotless were a little hard and uncomfortable, the breakfast was extra and average, although a variety of cereal and yogurt not much in the way of fruit to add to it , just a little chopped pineapple and nothing else, the cooked breakfast was adequate but lukewarm. I would stay here again.

Straightforward economy option
Good value, ample parking, room a bit tired and musty. Lots of siren noise at all hours apparently due to the nearby hospital. Comfortable bed. Reception staff friendly.

We enjoyed our stay here. Parking was a big benefit and the breakfast was wonderful. We slept comfortably and had great interactions with the staff. The place has older decor, but that was not an issue for us. Would recommend!

Myself , my husband and my teenage son had a very pleasant stay here. We chose this hotel as it was only a short drive to old Trafford football ground where we went for soccer aid.
The reception staff were friendly and helpful. There were no lifts but that didn't boher us as the stairs weren't steep.
The room was comfortable and clean with everything we needed.
Breakfast was lovely with a really good selection of full English breakfast, pastries, cereal, yogurt and fruit.
Would stay again .

Try somewhere else
The property is severely run down, as soon as you walk into reception you are greeted with a musky smell, the rooms also have the disgusting smell, are very dated and unkept. The sink has a huge crack in the basin and there was one towel for a family of 3. Then in the morning we were rudely awaken at 6AM by the fire alarm going off! Any recommendation would be try find somewhere else because for the money I’m sure you could get something better

Really need modernising, OK for the price
Very dated rooms and facilities, especially in terms of power sockets, shower, bathroom overall.
No blackout curtains, so you'll get woken up on sunny days.
They're pretty stingy on toiletries, although happy to provide more on request.
Good service, good staff, comfortable enough.
