Hey! Me and Alex Kelly (and MikeTV is he's bunking with me again) will be up in Manchester from the 12th to the 15th around the festival, so can any locals or previous visitors of the city suggest any hostels to hole up in?
Last years suggestion for Liverpool hosteling (from AdamGetsAwesome via CDK I think?) was fantastic, I forgot to thank you for that!
Cheers in advance

Last year we stayed in Hatters Hostel (I think it was the Hilton Chambers one) and it was really good. Probably about a 15 minute walk from the bus station or so. I'd say it's about a 30-40 minute walk to the venue this year. The organisers put some of the artists up in there too so I'm assuming it'd be their recommendation.
Plus, there's an amazing restaurant round the corner from it called Home Sweet Home that make the most amazing pulled pork you'll ever eat!

The Upper Brook St Travelodge is quite cheap at the moment, two of us are sharing a room for three nights for £60 (so £30 each!), and Google Maps says it's a ten minute walk!
