I have stayed at the Ainscow for years and noticed that furniture in rooms quality is getting worse with time. Broken sofas and just poor which will make me rethink where I stay in future. Staff are great, location is really good. Such a shame.

Really good room at a good price. When traveling with kids it is hard to find rooms with a double and 2 single beds (why do so many "family" rooms have two double beds? Do other children like to sleep in the same bed as their siblings?), so this room at a good price is a great find. Breakfast is good and the hotel in generally good condition. Only complaint is the mattress was a bit old and past its best. Also for the family room note that there is no door for the shower area, just around a corner, so some, but not total, privacy. The separate toilet room does have a door.

I’ve stayed at The Ainscow a few times now and will be doing more so in the future. Staff are really helpful. Especially Ethan ( night manager) who goes out of his way to help every guest. Always cheerful. Good clean rooms and excellent for location. Very near to town centre and train/ bus stations. Would definitely recommend to anyone for a great stay .
