Mooi van buiten, gedateerd van binnen
Pros:

De prijs
De ligging; eenvoudig met de bus naar het centrum van Manchester, maar ook met de auto ideaal om de omgeving te verkennen

Cons:

De slaapbank voor de kinderen was echt slecht. Heeeeel dun matrasje op een stalen frame; erg oncomfortabel voor de kinderen. Na de eerste nacht wel gevraagd of ze er iets aan konden doen en dat hebben ze opgelost door ons extra dekens te geven om er onder te leggen.

Always an enjoyable stay.
Pros:

When staying in Manchester we always stay at the The Woodthorpe Hotel. Location is excellent if one wishes to visit the city centre, but also it is located next to the beautiful Heaton Park. The rooms are comfortable and clean. The food is delicious, with an excellent menu ranging from traditional British food through to more exotic items. A good choice for every taste. Excellent choice of beers, wines and spirits. Friendly staff. The pub itself has a good atmosphere and one can see why it is a popular watering hole. What is there not to like?

Cons:

Nothing at all to grumble about 10/10

Not perfect but good value
Pros:

The food was excellent and great atmosphere in the pub with a large outdoor seating area. The hotel room itself was large with a comfortable bed and windows that actually opened which was good for keeping the room a bit cooler in the hot weather

Cons:

No air conditioning in the room. The bathroom and room itself need updating. Looks like the bathroom has not been decorated for some years. No breakfast available as pub/restaurant not open until 12pm when check out is early at 10am. No fridge in room and no bottled water supplied

Decent value for what it offers.
Pros:

Well priced accommodation on a busy weekend in Manchester. Nice location and a decent pub.

Cons:

My room was above the pub toilets and a ventilation fan kept coming on. I assumed this would finish when the pub closed, but it must have been on a timer and kept coming on regularly throughout the night.
