It was a lovely stay. The area is quiet and close (5-10 minutes walk) to Brooklands tram stop and a few minutes walk from shops and cafes. The area is also safe at night. The hotel owner/manager/staff are extremely friendly and kind and generous. The room and bathroom were clean and comfortable. The shower was good and spacious. The toilet was a little cramped between the wall and the shower but otherwise the bathroom was fine. The room heating worked well. The room was cozy with carpeting and a rug. The mattress was comfortable. The TV was easy to use. There were two comfortable chairs in front of the TV and I had coffee, tea and a kettle in the room. The room wasn’t noisy. The staff are communicative, they answer the phone and message you with instructions about collecting the keys from the lock box and the WiFi etc. The WiFi worked well. The staff can be flexible with checkin times. They are extremely helpful. Overall, I was very happy with the stay, the cleanliness and the service.
My Review of the Hotel in Sale – Manchester I stayed at a hotel located on 230 Washway Road in Sale, and my experience was excellent. The hotel was clean, well-organized, and very comfortable. The staff were polite, friendly, and always ready to help. The location is great and close to many services, which made my stay even more convenient. Honestly, it’s one of the best hotels I’ve stayed at in Manchester, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quiet and clean place in the Sale area.
A really beautiful house and the twin room I stayed in for two nights with my Mam was lovely. We loved the dining room, which is filled with plants and decorated in a quirky but classy way. Very convenient location too! Sale is a short walk (by the canal) away and has lots of places to eat. The metro stop to go into Manchester or Altrincham is also very nearby. Breakfast was really delicious! Tony is very welcoming and friendly and has a wealth of knowledge about the area. We would definitely stay here again! Thank you Tony!
Beautiful guest house of about 9 rooms with a lovely host and free parking (accessible via the back). Very reasonably priced with a range of room options - don't be worried by the 'shared bathroom' for these are very clean and looked after. Well decorated throughout, shared lounge and dining area looked comfortable and inviting. Good location with short walks into Sale centre and to Brooklands Tram stop. Convenient with a small Morrison's across the road. Very comfortable bed, clean room and soft bedding.
Lovely guest house in a central location with parking. Close to the tram stop and an easy canal walk into Sale for choice of bars and eateries. The owner is very friendly and efficient and gave us useful tips for our stay in the area. The whole house is tastefully decorated with attention to detail and has lovely landscaped gardens that screen any traffic noise from the road. Breakfast is very good and any requests are welcomed. Room was light, airy and the bed comfortable with lovely crisp bedding. We would definitely recommend and return with pleasure.
Really impressed with Cornerstones Guest House. Ahmed was excellent in communicating the keylock code and instructions. We were able to park the car and walk 15 mins to Sale Metrolink tram stop in Sale. The room was perfect for us (dad and lad) with a double and a single bed. A nice window for fresh air and the shower was hot. We stayed Saturday and went to Old Trafford for the Manchester United match on the Sunday. Would recommend.
NEW OWNER 29/11/2024 When we arrived it was the day Adam had taken over and was in the process of moving in. His father Ahmed was helping and was there when we arrived. After a little confusion we went to our room and it was very clean with an ensuite. Ahmed and Adam made us very welcome as we were there to for the weekend as we were seeing Peter Kay. There are local pubs and a Tube station nearby. Great venue to stay on the outskirts of Manchester. Thank you Adam and Ahmed for the very warm welcome.
A very cozy and lovely hotel. Perfectly decorated with lounge, dining room and vintage-style stairs. Excellent service by the host Tony. Comfortable room and tranquil environment. Pristine and dirt free. Simply beautiful. Transportation is great too. I will definitely stay there again if I visit Manchester one day. Thank you Tony. I wish you all the best.
