I can imagine that having a construction site right next to your hotel can be quite noisy, lol, and disruptive. It's understandable that this may not be the ideal location for some people, especially those who are looking for a quiet and peaceful stay.
However, being just a 5-minute walk from the city centre can also have its advantages, as it offers convenient access to shopping, dining, and entertainment options. Hopefully, the noise from the construction site won't detract too much from your overall experience in Manchester. Lol!
