YHA Manchester - Hostel
4.0 star property
Manchester City Centre
8.6 out of 10, Excellent, (303 reviews)
"Great atmosphere, super smooth and easy to settle in. Very cosy room with curtains across the bed so felt like own little private space, only concern was the getting up and down from the top bunk as there wasn’t much to hold onto but was told by staff that this is a new design and still in process of being rolled out. Overall brilliant stay and would definitely be back"
