A little gem of a restaurant bar hotel in fantastic part of Manchester close to RHS Bridgwater gardens.
Pros:

Location, comfort of room, good food in restaurant, comfortable large bed, quiet, close to canal, staff very welcoming with good knowledge of facilities in local area. Close to Bridgewater canal and RHS Bridgewater gardens.

Cons:

Bathroom mirror too high for anybody below height of 5feet 2inches. TV in room very flaky, especially the sound and the remote, possibly due to flat batteries. Lack of milk to make tea on arrival with tea-making facilities in room. Lack of breakfast availability during the week not made clear enough from outset in original booking with Booking.com
