Neighbourhood and local area reviews for renting in Manchester

Lovely area, couldn't recommend it more - just don't use this landlord

Calm and safe area. Neighbours are kind and helpful. Public transport is great and lots of nice shops.

Quiet , not far from Picadilly

The neighborhood is great, but I recommend other properties.

The landlord is renting out a house with mold on the walls in the bathroom and kitchen. Before moving home, she removes traces of mold, and when my health deteriorated and there was mold all over the house, she begins to deceive, shouting that she is a lawyer, that she will use the services of the police. She does everything to avoid returning the promised deposit. The house is very damp and if you decide to rent it, first think about whether you can heat it. You should be prepared for large gas and electricity bills and a scandalous landlady.

Definitely better than the landlord

after we fixed everything, apartment was livable
i like the neighborhood but even if it's 5 star hotel standard at cabbage price, i won't rent from this landlord. Been renting and living for years but he is one in a million

Area was fine gated complex on Brookhouse. House was good just last few months of landlady because she got desperate. Now after evicting us to sell property its up for rent.

Not an overly studenty area but had good bus links to both universities + city centre and there was a good choice of nearby supermarkets

Love Ancoats abundance of amazing bars and restaurants and like-minded people, such a buzzing neighbourhood
