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 .

Good room, cheap and friendly staff, very good little store for supplies compared to any other hotel I've been to. Only downside is that there was no heat control in the room, and due to the busy ring road outside it was hard to keep cool and still be able to sleep.

Staff were virtually none existent. Had to wait a while to check in and out but it was fine as we were only there one night. Bathroom situation was not clear in photos, no privacy in shower but again it was fine as only one night but this should be clearer in photos as it could have led to an embarrassing situation if you’re not 100% comfortable basically showering in front of the person you’re sharing with.
