Prima budget verblijf.
Pros:

Vriendelijk personeel. Er was goede service, ze waren altijd bereikbaar.

Cons:

De hygiene viel wat tegen. Het was niet heel vies, maar gewoon wat stoffig overal.

Pros:

Personalmente mi sono trovata bene. Struttura situata sopra un pub, dove peraltro si mangia bene (il brownie caldo è fenomenale) e si ha il 30% di sconto. I ragazzi dell'accoglienza e del pub sono carini e gentilissimi. Camera spaziosa, bagno piuttosto grande, presa adattatore disponibile in camera (non ci sono prese usb per ricaricare) e fermata metro a pochi minuti. Buon wi-fi e buon rapporto qualità/prezzo

Cons:

La struttura è un pò fuori ed essendo su una diramazione della district le corse sono un pochino meno frequenti. Il cestino in bagno era veramente molto piccolo e anche in camera un cestino farebbe comodo, e dato che la doccia aveva uno di quei soffioni molto grandi far trovare oltre ai prodotti da bagno anche una cuffia per i capelli potrebbe essere comodo in caso non se ne porti una da casa.

Convenient but more shabby than it needs to be
Pros:

No breakfast available but we knew that when we booked so not a critican but would be good to have something available
Convenient to bus to get to Tate
Bathroom and shower clean and spacious

Cons:

Light in corridor on all night and spilling under door
Blind on velux window wouldn’t stay shut
No side lights by bed
Paintwork on doors chipping off already
Carpet on stairs to room badly stained and shabby looking
Ditto banisters which needed a good clean on me well posts

Good location, helpful staff and comfy nights sleep
Pros:

Really good location, only few minutes walk from Wimbledon Park. Pub had food which was 30% off if you stayed there, I didn't eat, but the food looked good. Massive comfy bed.

Cons:

It was a well used room, few stains on the carpet, few broken things here and there, but did not really detract from my stay.

Highly recommended hotel. Friendly staff and perfect location
Pros:

Good size room, friendly staff, nice pub. Bed was large and very comfortable- I slept like a baby throughout the night! Nice, large rain shower and lots of natural light in the room. Ideally located for commuters. Nearby shops too.

Cons:

No parking other than on-street. Carpets throughout could do with replacement/cleaning

Great accommodation at a very good price.
Pros:

Excellent place to stay at a great price. The whole process was very smooth and the pub was nice. Couldn’t fault the room. Comfortable, pleasant room with good facilities.

Cons:

The Wi-Fi took a bit of time to kick into life but was fine once it did.

The Woodman Pub with a small number of ensuite rooms above the Pub. Really good value for money.
Pros:

We booked 2 king size double rooms so that we could attend a family Golden Wedding Anniversary within tube and walking distance. We were only there over the weekend.
The rooms were clean and spacious with a big walk-in ensuite shower room. Towels and toileteries were provided

Coffee and tea making facilities were provided in the rooms with a generous sized kettle and generous proper cup and saucer size too, with real stainless steel teaspoons +++

Other members of our family were also staying there at the same time as us

As we had booked ahead, we were also able to get a generous discount off drinks and their pizza menu.

We were on the 2nd floor and there isn't a lift but we knew this prior to booking

If you want a very early start, breakfast isn't provided until later in the morning, when the bar opens, but there are various cafes and restaurants close by, a few minutes walk away on, which provide generous breakfast/lunch and evening meal options, we would recommend the Bengal bistro for the evening meal they accomodated our family group of 14 in their downstairs room, after making a booking at short notice. Its TYOP with a small corkage charge but the food is absolutley wonderful with vegan options too.
The Woodman sells their pizzas from 11:00 to 23:00, pub closing time, which several of our party tried, after walking to Wimbledon Common and doing the park run!

Cons:

The only thing we found concerning, hence the 9 score, was that velux window blind in our double the bedroon was taped with gaffer tape and as my husband got up to fill the kettle on the Saturday morning, the gaffer tape, holding the blind, sprang off with a loud bang and hit him in on the nose!
He was none the worse for wear except for a bit of a scratch on the bridge of his nose which required application of tissues for a few seconds to stem the blood flow!

The window issue was remedied when we got back to our room late on the Saturday evening and there was no evidence of any gaffer tape to be seen and the blind was back in it's original housing!
The other old chestnut that keeps appearing on reviews is the stains on the carpeted area on the stairs and corridors to the rooms. The stairs do have some stains where people have obviously put down bottles and and cans, for whatever reason whilst the pub was just a pub,
However in the rooms the carpets are fine the beds are comfortable and the price for an overnight stay in two king size double rooms is exceptional particularly being so close to Wimbledon Park, Wimbledon Lawn Tennis Club, and Wimbledon Common!!!

There is no parking available but over the weekend there is free parking after 3 pm on certain roads close to the Woodman.

We would definitely stay there again and we would recommend others to do the same. The staff are extremely helpful and polite and we felt very well looked after.

Muy recomendable, excelente calidad - precio
Pros:

Nuestro vuelo fue cancelado y acabamos reservando este hotel. El hombre de aspecto indio que nos atendió por la noche fue muy amable. Fuimos con un bebé a pesar de que el alojamiento no daba la opción a reservar con bebé dado que no tendrá cunas y tiene escaleras sin ascensor. Pero fuimos conscientes de ello y no fue un problema para nosotros. Además, el bebé duerme con nosotros y la cama era MUY amplia y cómoda. La habitación también era de un tamaño superior a las otras que habíamos estado en la ciudad. A pocos minutos caminando del alojamiento, se encuentra el metro. El barrio del hotel es muy acogedor, residencial y familiar.

Cons:

Todo bien

Pros:

Good location, right near a bus stop. Large rooms. Friendly check in.

Cons:

Carpet in desperate need of a clean, bed was very squeaky and could do with replacing, although mattress was comfy enough. Generally looking a bit tired and could do with a lick of paint. Check in fairly slow due to the bar area being severely understaffed.

Consiglio di soggiornare al wodman pub merita.
Pros:

La signora Anna è veramente una persona molto gentile e efficiente ha soddisfatto ogni nostra richiesta. E ci ha aiutato con le sue indicazioni a girare Londra. Abbiamo mangiato al pub tutto molto buono, ma il fiore all'occhiello è il pizzaiolo Massi, la sua pizza italiana è veramente buonissima come in Italia. Anche lo chef molto bravo ha soddisfatto ogni nostra richiesta. Grazie. Consiglio vivamente.

Pros:

Localizado numa zona calma e com estação de metro (Wimbledon Park) a 3 mins a pé e paragem de autocarro em frente. Funcionários simpáticos e atenciosos, comodidades fantásticas e estava tudo muito limpo e bem arrumado. A zona do pub também é óptima para comer e beber, pois a qualidade é muito boa (e temos desconto, por estamos alojados) e o ambiente do pub é calmo e costuma ter várias famílias/amigos, etc a confraternizar, beber, comer..um ambiente muito agradável.
