    No real reception, very hard to find staff to talk with first thing in morning and late at night, not given a proper tour of the facilities (had 2 shower rooms but only 1 worked and didn't know about the 2nd shower until the 3rd morning, no signage), room was very low down at half way point so not feasible for someone with back problems, was given a code to enter the building but on the 2nd night it was changed and no one told me so I was locked out at 11pm for half an hour until another guest came out and gave me the code, contacted property twice through booking.com and didn't get a response either time.

    Good location, right beside shopping area and bus station. Cheap and decent facilities for the price and the need for only looking for somewhere to sleep especially when gone first thing in the morning and returning last thing at night. Not the most cleanliest place you will ever stay.

    The building being old had no lift for people with disabilities.

    The property was situated near town centre also near bus station which was very handy for me. The room had everything I needed.

    The shower temperature changed a bit, presumably due to demand by others, but this wasn't a major issue. The main issue we encountered was that there was no separate lounging or gathering area that could be accessed when the pub wasn't open. As a group of friends who aren't in their university years anymore, none of us wants to gather in someone's bedroom - there also wasn't sufficient seating or room to attempt this. The place works best as a room-only expectation - and most of the time we were sleeping or out so it worked, but I'd hesitate to stay here for a longer or bigger gathering in the area.

    Location was great and within walking distance to the centre - ideal for New Years Eve, particularly given the rain. The host was very friendly and helpful. The bed was very comfortable. Access was easy and 24hrs.

    No ensuite in the room, but i knew that when booked. Struggled parking, had to park next door out on the main road. But the car was okay no damage

    Location, fairly quiet. You pay for what you got, it was clean which was the main thing

    Nothing really, other than the Bar wasn’t open on arrival.

    Visited as a new city for our Jolly Boys Christmas outing and The Old Post Office was perfect for us. Clean, Comfortable and ideal location for the Town Centre. Owners very helpful. Whilst the Car Park was full we got to park opposite without any charges, plus official Car Park over the road if needed. Helped us with an earlier check-in than normal.

    Not many en suite rooms and not many shared bathrooms for the total number of rooms, but the wash basin in my room was adequate for a one night stay. A beside table and light would have been useful. With a bit of hard work and investment this place could be a little goldmine. (Some real ale in the bar would have encouraged me to drink there).

    Excellent location very close to bus station and in walking distance of train station, the Minster, Piece Hall, museums and the town centre. It's a quirky old building with a real rabbit warren of corridors leading to the rooms. Despite my room being very basic it was clean and comfortable and I slept very well.
