The Cosy Pod Studio - Short Stay in Salford

I had a very comfortable stay. The place was very clean and the owners had thought of everything. There were pots for cooking and a dinner place had even been set for myself. I would highly recommend anyone to stay here and for the price, it was very good value for money

I had issues with the digital key lock, however, I would say that was more about me than an issue with the property. I can’t think of anything I didn’t like about here

Lovely flat comfortable bed, secure gate pass number, quiet at night hot shower. Near a bus stop.

Lovely clean and host was brilliant so helpful and attentive

Nothing

As the name suggests, the Cosy Pod is snug if not to say small, but this shortcoming is more than made up for in the intelligent use of the available space. The bedroom is very comfortable with a big modern TV at just the right distance for viewing from the bed. There’s a wardrobe beside the bed and two mini bedside lockers on either side. All the expected mod cons are in place (hair dryer, kettle, toaster etc). The shower room is very well laid out and has a top notch power shower. The kitchen space is tiny but is supremely managed by the addition of an Elfin Kitchen (Google it!) which gives you everything you need: sink, draining board, two ring hob, microwave oven, fridge and two door cabinet in an unbelievably small space. It’s not just for show either, everything works very well and the fact that it’s near the front door means you can get plenty of air when cooking. I think the most thoughtful touch was the inclusion of a good oscillating fan, a godsend during the latter stages of the August heatwave. Outside, the property is very secure, with a strong gate plus coded access to give one a sense of safety. The property is very modern and well kept and this part of Salford has greatly benefited from extensive urban renewal. There’s a nice park about 500 metres away and a Lidl just beyond the park. The property is within easy and straightforward walking distance of central Manchester as well. My interactions with the owner were very courteous and friendly. Many thanks for the memorable stay!

Very little I didn’t like, the table didn’t really work well as there was no space for it and it blocked access to the bed a bit. Anyway, the weather was good, so I just ate outside in the very pleasant back yard. There was a bit of wear and tear visible on some of the furniture but this has been the case in pretty every rental I have ever been in. The space may be a bit cramped for some tastes but the level of facilities in such a small space is astounding.
