Nice flat in great location
A spacious one bed in the fantastic location of Burton Road, West Didsbury, just a few steps to the tram (pink line) into central Manchester, and with lots of wonderful cafes, bars and restaurants on the doorstep. We thoroughly recommend the Old Bakery cafe for breakfast and the Lebanese/Palestinian restaurant Zena for dinner.
It's an area we stay in often, though this was our first time in this property. It has a modern kitchen and is generally nicely furnished, if somewhat sparcely (no bedroom dressing table for hair drying, for example). It's a little faded though, with signs of needing some TLC in some rooms and areas.
Being on the main road, it's a bit noisy at night and early mornings. Ear plugs recommended for light sleepers!
Getting in was tricky as it was dark and the key box isn't easy to access for short people!
Tip: If travelling by train, it's nearer (and cheaper by cab) to go to Stockport rather than Manchester Picadilly.
