a&o Manchester City Centre
I had a twin room which was spacious and clean with a large sized TV. Minor downsides were not all the USB sockets worked, the air-conditioning was on the noisy side but didn't stop me sleeping and some stains on the carpet and a chair make it look dirty but it was in fact very clean.

Easy check in and out, large twin comfortable beds; great free shuttle airport transfer, great location particularly Terminal 3 - walking distance (we used shuttle to Terminal 2). Did not use bar grill restaurant for food, only for drinks, pricey but no different to other airport hotels. Shampoo ...
