Townhouse Hotel Manchester

8/10 Good
"The hotel is very nice in a very good location a couple of block from the Town Hall. There are several parking lots nearby. The room was very nice but the lighting was not very bright. Light in the bathroom was not good for shaving or, I imagine, for applying makeup. The breakfast was good. The hotel is on a major street and the traffic noise is pretty loud most of the time."
