York Visit

Hotel was a 10 minute walk away from town. The pub itself looked to be a sports bar. We didn't hear alot of noise from the pub itself. The room was clean, warm and comfortable. The shower was either really hot or really cold so ended up having a bath instead but I could of been using it incorrectly. The staff were friendly and helpful. Would definitely staff here again when visiting York again.

Staff were very friendly and helpful. Due to being older and listed building, there were few creaks and some noise in hallway. Would have appreciated room being cleaned over the time we were there. Only 1 bin in room emptied. Bathroom bin and towels not changed. This was only negative part of stay.

I appreciate the age and fabric of the building, the room was small, not quite, because of the road, unavoidable I know. Some small issues were as follows, broken shades on the bedside lamps, no lock on the en-suite door and cobwebs around the ceiling. Unfortunate booking error for breakfast, which we didn’t have in the end and parking for residents caused an issue on one day.

Over all very good. High marks for hospitality, cleanliness and value. Decor showing wear, thread bare carpets, door hardware, light fixtures etc. does not detract from the charm. Would definitely stay again.

Very nice I could not get a drink there I like vodka and bottled coke or Diet Coke but they only had draft coke and I don’t like it.I thought the breakfast was a bit steep it was 12.50 per person each day.But apart from that it was very nice .
