Disappointing room. Photos made it look amazing which it wasn’t. The floors were uneven and I expect that from being an old building but be careful if one uses the coffee machine. The table it is situated on slopes and therefore make sure one holds the cup until the coffee is made or the cup will fall off and ………no coffee! Room is in need of an update with scuffed walls. The tops of the mirrors have never seen a cloth and the fan in the showers has a mind of its own and can stay on for ages. Basically shabby and certainly not worth the money for the stay. Be careful if one wants to stay in York after checking out! They will not look after one’s bags and they tell you to Google the best place to store the luggage. In summary, worst hotel I have stayed in and one I will not be visiting any time soon!!! Avoid folks!!!!!!

Horrible basement room that stank of drains and sewage to the point that we could not stay there over night. Very unfriendly staff who did not deal with our issue well. Disgusting establishment and would warn anyone not to stay there. Awful experience.

For a 4 star hotel we would have expected a safe and fridge in the room, there was also no toilet brush in our bathroom and as the room wasn't cleaned during our 2 night stay (unsure why not) this was disappointing. There was a large residue of dust on the top of the bathroom mirrors. It was not the fault of the hotel but the loud noise from the courtyard at 7am from a delivery of beer barrels both mornings was very disruptive as our room overlooked the courtyard. The location of the hotel was great.

Great service super location The room and building need a lick of paint and a spruce up, lots of wear and tear in our room, not sure about the other rooms they may be better. We were on ground floor and the room needed some love, well worn
