Staff were absolutely brilliant, so helpful and friendly. Giving us tips on places to go, and having a good laugh with them. Special mention to Tiger and Lewis, but all of the staff were brilliant. Never got cleaners names but they also need mentioned
We knew it was above a bar which actually suited us and was never an issue. However, a bit of noise early in the morning from waste collections, road sweepers etc wasn't great for the morning after a few beers.

Lovely bunch of staff and management. Very welcoming. Nice atmosphere. Got speaking with some locals. Place has just been revamped. It's nice and cosy. I booked a single room for one night, had a brilliant sleep in the nice, very comfortable bed. The mattress was lovely and think, like sleeping on a cloud. Grabbed a nice shower in the morning and felt very relaxed and home from home. I vist manchester for business quite frequently, and i normally used to stay in Britania hotels. But this place is a nice little gem in the heart of the city. I will definitely be booking again.
Couldn't find tv remote.

The rooms are a good size, the beds & pillows are very comfortable. It is a very nice pub, in a good location with very friendly staff. Very good price aswell.
The major problem is music playing until the pub closes. So if you want an early night, forget about it.

The room was lovely and the facilities were clean. The staff were very friendly and helpful.
I wouldn't recommend staying here if you are returning late at night to this accommodation on your own, not in a safe area, there were a lot of drunk and aggressive people walking around.

The hotel cancelled our reservation without informing us. We had to find another place to stay. It's completely unacceptable that booking.com allows this!
We were scammed.

Lads full of banta. Good crack. You get what u pay for.
Cheap hotel. 10 of us flying from Manchester 4am had a few drinks downstairs with the staf which gave us some on the house because the hotel was a mess. No issue when just needing a bass. Good group of lads. Owner makes the place. Nothing more to say

Nothing!!
I spoke explaining that I would arrive several hours after check in, he told me it was fine and he could leave the keys in the bar below the room, I arrived there at two in the morning and there were three people in the bar, no one had the keys, I tried to call the structure but no one answered I lost money and I could not stay in the structure! with a four year old girl I had to look for a hotel at two in the morning, no. it was neither easy nor cheap. think twice before booking with them.

Good clean rooms, great location
Only issue was that the room was very hot and the windows are blocked off which prevented us from opening them.

The staff at the pub tried to be helpful, but clearly struggled to find my booking in their system. The bed was actually surprisingly comfortable, but it was two single beds put together and I almost fell into the hole in the middle. I didn't mind the noise as that comes with such a central location in the nightlife center of the city.
The place was disgusting! Their cleaners must have been abducted by aliens because that can be the only explanation of the state of this property. The floors in the room were absolutely filthy, the lamp and curtain were broken, there were cigarette butts on the window sill and cigarette ash marks on the bed, shreds of toilet paper on the floor.
The shared bathroom in the hallway was exactly the same complete with used wrappers from women's sanitary pads, other trash and dirty towels on the floor and a broken door that I struggled to close.

The location was very handy with most places easily walkable. Staff were generally friendly but didn't seem to be a manager or anyone about the place to keep an eye on things.
This was the dirtiest hotel I have ever stayed in, every surface in the room was absolutely caked in dust. I had a look under the bed and you'd swear the room hadn't been vacuumed for months, layer upon layer of dust. Our check in was delayed by around an hour and a half so we had to sit in the bar for quite some time. When we finally got up to the room, there was no sheet on the duvet which I would consider a bare minimum requirement - despite asking several times, we never got a sheet put on for the entire stay. The heating was on full blast seemingly 24/7 which made the room very uncomfortable during the warm weather. We also had no tea/coffee making facilities or even a bin in the room, which led to guests using the bin in the shared bathroom which kept overflowing. Not usually one to complain but sadly this place was particularly bad.

Near to commercial companies and also to the station. Staff was really good they are helpful.
Poor facilities, no cleanliness.
4.0
The location is excellent. The staff were also keen to help where they could.
The room was filthy and dust-ridden.
Problems including but not limited to; rubbish under the bed, the cupboard falling apart, peeling wallpaper and torn blinds, the room is in complete dissaray. Not to mention that the torn blinds are in eyeshot of the bathroom which is also filthy.
It is also incredibly noisy until early hours of the morning though this comes with the territory of staying above a pub.
4.0
The room was big enough.
The blinds were all broken and there was no curtain on one of the windows so during the night the street lights were all on your face.
The toilet was a night mare. Toilet so dirty, shower looks like it has not been cleaned for more than six months, same as the toilet floor. The stairs were very dirty. There was a bucket standing with urine or dirty water all the fours days I was there.
Multiple use toilet no disinfectant. That is a breathing area for information. Somking in the toilet and on the stairs way. Noise.

The toilet was shared and lock did not work had to get my daughters to hold the door while we used the toilet , it was disgraceful dirty smelly and no soap to wash hands . The room had no kettle or cups .The heating was on full no way of turning off the window was not use able glass panel in front of it noway for any air . When we arrived back later after concert the music was on full whack and continued to get louder all we could her was thud thud thud an a couple of words . This continued till 1.20am then the staff starting coming up stair around 3am and just let's say they weren't quiet . Fully disappointed would never recommend anyone to stay there.No communication with staff only I asked a young man member offstaff for a taxi number and he was helpful .

The discount when you buy beers/drinks in the bar. 😅😅
Shared toilet/bathroom and it would be great if there was more than one for the approx ten rooms.
Actually it's not a hotel but rooms located on top of a bar.

Being able to check out
This place is falling apart, arrived and there was holes in the walls and just random door numbers all over the floor. Blinds didn't work in the room. We didn't feel safe here. Shared bathroom facilities poor and dirty, and not enough... (people queuing).
