Cornerstones Guest House

In poor state. Dirty toilet with skid marks and one towel used when we first arrived. Tiny double bed with only one duvet and one sheet, which they had arranged horizontally as it was for two people. Did not work in practice, especially since it was no heat and therefore very cold at night. The radiator did not work and could not be adjusted. Also, the shower had low pressure and there were no fridge. Only good thing is location if you are going to Old Trafford and MAN airport.

This property was perfect for our needs, working at a conference in the city. We arrived 9pm and left early both days, so just needed a place to sleep. Private carpark round the rear of property. Close to metro (tram) stop and an easy 20 minutes by car from the city centre (less for Salford Quays or Old Trafford). Apart from check-in we never saw anyone during our weekend stay. Host was contactable by mobile if we needed (which we didn't). Self service breakfast provided (cereals) as under new management so the kitchen was not up and running for serving breakfast. Totally silent at night, so we slept really well. Comfortable temperature all night on a very stormy wet weekend. Would definitely stay again if working an event in Manchester.

I have been to many hotels/guesthouses and I make sure they are 4 star minimum. I fail to understand how this is a 4 star accommodation. I booked for 2 nights, I entered the building to check in and rules were being told to me. ‘You cannot eat fast food in your room we ask you kindly to eat in the cafe where cutlery is provided’… very unusual for a 4 star not to let you eat in your room. Now the room, it had a runner on top for show but on closer inspection it felt like it had it’s been used a few times unwashed from the looks. The en suite the washroom smelt AWFUL gutter smell ..DISGUSTING. So now here comes the most serious and unprofessional part. Check out time was 10.30am. My wife and I were staying in the accommodation, I was showering and the owner knocked on 10.30 sharp at the door, my wife opened whilst I was in the shower and he tapped his watch and said time to check out. My wife said just a moment, I came out at 10.40 and then the owner knocked on the door and was shouting you are 15 minutes overtime and knocking on the door saying time to leave. My wife opened the door just to say we are closing bags and leaving he was force opening the door and said let me see and my wife was preventing him coming. 15 mins later he comes again storms in and says time to leave and lifts a hand luggage out of the room and being shouted out LEAVE and being tagged as IRRESPONSIBLE’ I was shocked, It felt like the owner was letting me live for free and now kicking me out! V.BAD

We recently stayed at a charming bed and breakfast, and it exceeded all my expectations. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm hospitality and a cozy atmosphere. The room was well decorated, clean and provided all the comforts of home. Breakfast each morning was a highlight, with delicious full English or continental . The host Tony was friendly and attentive.Overall, our stay was relaxing, enjoyable, and I would highly recommend this B&B to anyone looking for a delightful and personalized experience.

Amazing guesthouse that was tidy, well appointed and had a beautifully calm feel about it. Will look to stay again when next in the area

Lovely little gem. Host was the perfect balnce of attentive but not overbearing. Room was beautiful and bed was comfy. I would definitely stay again!

Cornerstones is a lovely place to stay. The whole house is beautifully decorated in a very attractive style and I thought my room was extremely glam. Very clean and comfortable too and the shower robe was a welcome touch in my room. The purpose of my stay was to attend a 4-day conference at Manchester Metropolitan University and I used the 263 bus to travel into the city - the bus stops right outside the door and was only £2 each way!

Lovely comfortable period property with lots of quirky touches. Couldn’t have been made more welcome by the extremely helpful and hospitable host.

Lovely immaculate big room. Tony was very accommodating, would definitely stay again.

A pleasant stay. Tony was very welcoming and available to help.

Easy to find. Great individualised service. Breakfast was amazing- catered for a vegetarian diet very well. Rooms spacious and clean.

Friendly owner, nice place, well decorated, clean and spacious

The cleanliness was 10 out of ten The only problem we had was we wereon the third floor without a lift My husband has a pacemaker and had just recovered from covid so his breathing was not good. We didnt like to ask for another room The owner was so good Food was excellent.

Outstanding, from the moment i pulled up to the moment i left, the whole experience was fantastic. Arrived an hr before check in,Tony welcomed me and allowed me to check in. Booked room No 2 with en-suite. Loved the room, modern touches within a victorian shell. Room was spacious, clean & warm Even tho its located on a busy main road, you couldn't hear any traffic. Free parking located at the rear, access via garden at side of property to the front. Town centre a short walk away, with multiple stores,pubs & restaurants. Fully recommend the stay.

Very friendly and quiet, bus stop outside, excellent breakfast. I would definitely book again on my next visit to Manchester.

Nice, comfortable, clean and spacious room with a very comfortable single bed and a small but perfectly functional shower. I also enjoyed the (separate) bathroom with a good old-fashioned bath!

Welcoming host, charming and beautifully decorated. Would definitely stay again. Highly recommended

Lovely place. Very comfortable. Many thanks

Fab accommodation, excellent host and very good value for money. Would definitely stay again.

We stayed at Cornerstones in July & when we returned in August for the final week of our trip it felt like we were returning home. It's a beautiful old victorian house on the main road in Sale. It's about 7 mins walk from a tram stop, 15 mins walk from the centre of Sale. It's beautifully furnished with oodles of character. Our room was large with 2 arm chairs & plenty of space. Tony is the most marvellous, welcoming host & makes delicious breakfasts. I'm vegetarian & I got an array of tasty meals across the week which provided a good start to the day. Highly recommended. Thank you so much Tony.
