Extreme Budget

First off, I'm aware this is a budget hotel, and so I did not go in expecting amazing from Ibis. That being said, I found this hotel to be lacking in many basic ways that meant my stay was uncomfortable and unenjoyable (and it wasn't that cheap!) Note that only upon making a booking with Ibis do they let you know that parking costs £14 per day. I think they should be much clearer about this, as parking around the hotel is limited and just as costly, and depending on the length of your stay it can make a real difference (I came for an event and had friends stay at a much nicer hotel nearby which came out only £10-15 more expensive once car parking costs were factored in). The twin room is not comfortable. The beds are too close together, and cannot be moved due to the wooden frames they sit within. You'll be very cozy with your room mate, so keep that in mind if this is a business trip. The toilet is in a closet. I'm not joking. There's a little closet by the door that has the toilet and nothing else. The sink is in the room itself, with a plastic shower cubicle beside it. This is a room for single occupancy or couples masequrading as a twin room. My trip was in July when it was very warm. The air con system was broken so it was uncomfortably warm at night, made worse by plastic materials used on the (under) sheets on the bed which meant you stuck to them. Breakfast can be included for a set price - this part was fine. Look elsewhere first.

Overall disappointing - tea facilities required

Perfectly suitable budget hotel. Comfortable bed. Close to Lowry Theatre. Let down by a 10% surcharge to rent a kettle. The cheapest 1 star b and b provides tea facilities.

All in all it wasn't the best budget place ive stayed at, I've had better facilities at a camping site. Everything is extra to pay for, car park, kettle, tea or coffee in the room. Hairdryer etc are also extra to pay for. Staff where abrupt and not very helpful, to the extent of staff been rude and at a point insulting. Manager was considered and helpful in dealing with the issues. Will take the offer up on returning for a second visit and changing this revenue.

This truly is a budget hotel, ended up here as the area was heavily booked during my work trip… i would avoid in future. My toilet was literally a cupboard. Bed and pillows very uncomfortable. My room was shockingly hot!

Disappointed with the Basics, Despite Friendly Sta

I recently stayed at ibis Manchester Salford Quays and, unfortunately, I was quite surprised—and not in a good way—by the level of budgeting here, especially when comparing it to my recent stay at ibis Crewe. The room felt extremely basic. There were no standard amenities that I’ve come to expect from ibis hotels—no tea or coffee tray, no kettle (you had to buy one, which was a first for me), and not much else besides the towels. The room itself was also smaller than other ibis branches, making it feel cramped and underwhelming. That said, I do want to mention that the staff were genuinely lovely and very helpful—they were the highlight of the stay and made the experience feel a bit more pleasant. Overall, while I understand this is a budget hotel, the cutbacks here went too far. I expected more consistency across ibis locations, and this one didn’t live up to that expectation.
