Malacuna Manchester

Central location, comfortable bed, great rainfall shower, basic accommodation perfect for a one night stay when attending a concert, would stay again

loved it!

Near to both Manchester piccadilly and Victoria Stations. Very clean. Being refurbished. Curtains on bunks. Its first come,first served ao one cannot choose a bottom bunk. So its mountain climbing time to upper bunk. Poor ventilation in rooms. Apart from that,its still good Apart from

Listen, I read lots of really bad comments about this place, but I needed a cheap, clean room in the centre of Manchester for one night. Did I get it ? yes. Was it cheap ? yes. Was it clean ? yes. Was it warm ? yes. Was it noisy ? no. Did it serve eggs benedict for breakfast ? No. This place does what it says it does, it's no frilly and it's not plush, it's a decent cheap room in the middle of Manchester City Centre. So, if you want more than that, please go to your Hilton or Radisson or whatever and pay 3 or 4 times as much and stop giving this place such a bad time in terms of reviews.

In a funny way I quite liked this place and preferred it to the slick anonymoty of other budget hotels. However, it bore no ressemblance to the photos, I think the social space was being redone when I was there because there were lots of builders and scoffolding about. I had to change rooms because the lights didn't work in the room I'd been given, but the room I was swapped to smelt really strongly of paint, which was quite unpleasant. It was huge and airy, with a huge red stripe across the celing and down the wall and purple neon light, so a bit like sleeping in a repurposed nightclub - which of course, might be what some people are after. The next morning I walked downstairs and then realised that I had maroon gloss paint on my hands because the banisters had be painted. A wet paint sign would have been useful. My top tips, make sure you have your own tea, coffee, milk etc because none of that is provided. Bring earplugs unless you are good at sleeping in noisy places.

Everything was good but the noice levels from the street during the nights was terrible. Except of that nothing to complain!

We stayed in a double room. When we got to the room there were no soap in the bathroom, no toilet plunger and no trash bin… When I went to the reception she said there was nothing she could do and that we should used the floors bathroom instead until morning and she would write a note to get it fixed. Another guest gave me a soap when I was was about to leave to the room which helped for the night. Next morning and nothing had happened. I talked to the reception again and they wrote another note to get it fixed. NOTHING HAPPENED and we never got any of the stuff that was missing. I had to go and ask for toilet paper since it ran out and there was nothing but the one roll, reception said they would bring more but we only got one which also ran out. The paper was VERY THIN. The morning of checkout we asked if we could stay 2 hours longer and was told it would be 15 pounds which we agreed to. But they had no way of paying apart from them writing down your credit card information and billing it to you which I was not comfortable with…. The girl in the reception was incredibly rude and ignored me multiple times talking to friends refusing to come up with a solution so we just decided to leave earlier. Terrible stay and I dont recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Manchester.

A good value overnight stay in central Manchester for a gig.

Really cool place.

It was amazing! Comfy cosy beds, with curtains that fully block out the light. As per some reviews saying the music from downstris / outside was loud I brought headphones which did massively help!! (Eventhough it was was Tuesday night lol) friendly staff easy location. Locker in bed area, and belongings felt safe! Recommend

The property is above and near a very loud bar until quite late

Went there for 3 nights with my girlfriend for the Oasis concert. We had low expectations since they offered a room for such a good price. However when we get the keycard for our room we got surprised. A big comfortable size bed, a clean bathroom and an AC, all we could ask for really. For this price and such a good location in the city, you can not ask for more! Really helpful staff with 24/7 service! Highly recommending, and I will come back!

The hostel phoned me from a foreign number over WhatsApp to cancel the booking just three days before the stay. Mindful of scams, I tried to find the property's contact details but they are not even listed on Google Maps. Nobody replied when I phoned using the number listed by Expedia. The hostel offered no compensation and made no attempt to help me find alternatives. It then took four attempts over the course of one week to organise a refund via Expedia. A really poor experience all round.

No where does it state this place is above a live music venue. When youre in the room. You are bascully in the live music venue itself. The floor and furniture vibrate and you can hear everything

First time booking a 'hostel'. Pleasantly surprised with accommodation. Great vibrant area of Manchester to be in, with loads of restaurants, pubs, cafes etc. Expected more internal late night noise, but didn't happen. Only negative was loud music immediately underneath us until 230am on Friday & Saturday night of stay. Reception staff were friendly and attentive. All in all - and unexpected good experience!

Lovely staff, perfect location, They also let us check in earlier after a long journey travelling Thank you see you next time

Good location that you could fulfil eating and shopping. Tram stop can be accessed at around 7 minutes walk. Staff is nice and friendly. The room seems not really well maintained as it looks a bit old and no usb charging port in the room is so inconvenient. Besides, it is quite noisy outside at night even staying on the 2nd floor.

Great area to stay in Manchester. Staff was always helpful and beds and shower are good.

Really good staff are friendly and helpful the onlything is theres no washing units here the closest one is a 20 min walk away

It to good on the reception
