Very small pool and stained carpets/chairs

I was very disappointed when I saw the pool - it's about 8m long; the photo makes it look a lot bigger. There are no showers in the changing room (other than a disabled toilet/shower) which means you have to get dry to return to your room to take a shower and wash your hair! Some of the chairs in the reception area were badly stained and the carpet in our bedroom was also stained. The breakfast was very good with a lot of choice and the staff were all really friendly. Reception was often only manned by one person so sometimes there was a queue but on the whole, it was OK. The location was good for walking into York city centre. Would I stay again? Probably not as I only chose the hotel for the pool which turned out to be a real disappointment.

A bit disappointing

The room we was given was room 111 which in my opinion was not a queen size bed as I had booked. And also on the booking I made it had said car parking was included but I was charged a further £17!! Wasn’t the best experience unfortunately

A good option for york

Really lovely hotel, modern and clean. Not too far from the centre, could walk in in around 5-10 minutes. Lovely decor and spacious rooms. The only thing that let this place down was the price of the carpark and there was some staining on the bedroom carpet.

Nice staff and the stay in general was fine. Only let down by the badly stained carpet in the room. We did report this and were told the room is getting a new carpet soon. A robust clean of the current carpet would suffice.

The staff were all lovely and the hotel was comfortable and clean. My only issue was our kettle tripped out electric. It was to be replaced but it wasn't and so tripped out again. I could not have a coffee or dry my hair cos electric was tripped. Also usb plugs by bed didn't work.
