What uni should I pick for Architecture?

I've been offered a place by Manchester (MSA) and Uni of Sheffield and am completely stuck on what to do. I'm from Manchester and so initially wanted to go to Sheffield to have that 'away from home' experience, but people are telling me that's silly and that Manchester is the better uni so I should base my decision on that instead. I'm split into two minds right now and would appreciate any advice I can get!

Edit: important things to note 1) both require AAA so that's not a factor for me 2) I've also gotten into Manchester's foundation year, requirements BBB, so that was going to be my insurance choice. I also applied for Liverpool (AAB) and York (AAB) but have already factored them out.

They are both good unis for architecture. Go to the applicant days to have another look around before you make your decisions. Compare courses - are there any overseas visits, does the uni have links with local architecture firms, what are the staff specialisms, etc.
