Shocking service

Great staff, well proportioned rooms, quiet but mattresses could be better
Pros:

Friendly staff. Spacious rooms

Cons:

The mattresses aren’t great and a single bathroom between this number of rooms can be a pain. Excellent bathroom though

I find staying at pubs who affer accomadations can be hit or miss, this place was definitely a hit.
Pros:

Great spot for an overnighter in Halifax! The staff are wonderful and very helpful. You can walk to any of the attractions and restaurants. Despite being above the pub, I never really noticed the noise, and what little there is ends promptly at closing time. They put a lot of effort into the renovations for the rooms, its quite clean and comfy.

Cons:

No complaints.

Pros:

Needed a cheap overnight stay in the area & it did the job. Traditional pub downstairs & close to station.

Cons:

No hot water to shower in the morning, but not a problem as there's a bath as well.

I only stayed 10min and I left to find another hotel to stay. Presentation of the room was shocking
Pros:

The location, close to the city centre, the car parking

Cons:

My room was very cold, no heater was on. There was a radiator electrical heater in the room. I was told that the main heater is on a timer so god knows when the heater would come on and for how long. The window did not close and left a big opening allowing cold air in. I was told that is because the building is old... There was only 1 electrical socket in the room, there was no kettle and tea bags (like in so many other hotels) for making a cup of tea, the television was only tuned to 4 channels, no proper solution to hang up my cloths, no proper solution to keep my suitcase, I paid £90.00 for a 2night stay.
I hope that the hotel management uses my £90.00 to at least fix the defective window in the room for the next customer.
