Have stayed before, great food in the bar area. The hostel is clean, friendly and efficient. Great location and very good facilities. Only spoilt by two guys turning up in the 6 bed room, at 4am! I guess that's part of the 24 hour reception bit though....

Very good position, 10 mins walking from the citycentre. Safety area and really easy to reach. The room are very clean, warm inside and the staff is genuinaly friendly. Perfect for me with the car 'cause there's a free parking. Perfect for families too who want some relax.

I've read a lot of different reviews of YHAs and this one seems to be one of the better ones compared to most of the others. I stayed here in June 2012 and was impressed with the cleanliness of the room. It is a little out of the way and kind of a walk from the nearest tram station, but... More

We were here (2 moms of 2 girls & their girlfriends of 16) for a concert of One Direction for the girls. We arrived too early on Friday and were very happy that our two 4-person rooms were already available and that we could leave our luggage in there. The rooms were unbelievably clean. Simple but comfortable. The bathrooms were... More

I stayed at the YHA Manchester, potato wharf, for one night, with my partner, sister and brother the place was easy to find although a little away from the city centre! Our room was a quadruple room which was adequate for our needs! Somewhere to put your head down after a concert! I wouldn't want to stay there with strangers... More

East Anglia to Manchester by train, then a free Metroshuttle bus to near to the hostel. It was easy to get to. A very clean and tidy hostel. The staff were friendly and efficient. Our room was basic and functional but clean and tidy. My son and I had booked in so we could see Norwich play Man Utd and... More

My first trip in UK and Manchester of course was amazing. I've decided to pick this hostel and I've made a good choice. The rooms are very clean, the breakfast is amazing (British breakfast), the quality of sleep is very good and the surroundings very, very beautiful. You can take a short walk in the morning and admire the sunshine... More

Nice area of Manchester surrounded by canals and right next to the huge and free industrial museum. Spotlessly cleanm. Stayed in a private room which was large, with plug sockets, cupboard, bedlight, sofa and contained shower. Not sure about the concerns of others regarding noise and trains becuase it was very quiet for me. Seemed to be better prices than... More

On the negative side: one of my room's lock-up storage cupboards was broken; disappointingly, wifi is £1 for 20 minutes or £5 for 24 hours; I also heard mixed reviews of the breakfast, which costs £4.95; the woman on reception wasn't exactly unfriendly, but I didn't see her smile at any customers, including me; I woke up sweating a couple...
