Bad house keeping
Pros:

Staff were very helpful, friendly and professional. Bed was comfy and everything seemed clean BUT...

Cons:

Broken toilet seat, loose tap in bathroom, mould in shower and a huge dead plant sitting next to the tub. One of the hall lights in living area was broken and found 2 more pots of dead plants in bedroom. 200 pounds for one night? Very disappointed.

Worth every penny! Dont go as a general night away, go for an experience to tick off!
Pros:

The location and feel of the pub was just wonderful. Small, cosy, everything you would expect from how it is advertised to be. No modern twists, we wanted to almost "go back in time" and that is exactly what we did...with the luxuries of a coffee machine, a fantastic shower and an overall great room. We stayed in Lady Pecketts, which was adorned with oe of the goodie bags i added to our stay, which was gratefully received. We could see the room had been prepped by Sarah, who clearly did an amazing job, we also met her the next morning and she was equally lovely to chat with! everything was on an angle, which added so much natural character! Although the pub was busy, the staff were smiling and doing their absolute best to tend to everyone, i should add none of that was heard from our room. The staff were lovely from start to finish, and the breakfast great. Location wise, you are literally in York, we were lucky enough to land on the Christmas Market, and be able to travel the Shambles across the street. Thank you all so much! x

Cons:

We should have stayed longer, that is the only thing that would have been better!

Great building, lovely room, good food, very expensive bar.
Pros:

Good central location, close to the heart of York. Very historic and atmospheric building. @Sarah did a top job getting the room ready. Facilities in the room were very good, there was a real sense of history. The whole place. I’ll be coming back at some point.

Cons:

Bar prices were a big shock - and that’s coming from a Londoner… a pint of ale and a small coke cost £2 more than it would in London.
