Pros: Fin atmosfär, historiskt klster, bor nunnor än idag. Mycket vänlig personal. Fina rum med hiss upp. Uppgraderad till engelsk frukost, utmårkt. Cons: Det gick inte att öppna fönstret på rummet, blir lätt instängd trots ac, som jag inte gärna anvönder

A good 3 star hotel with a descent cooked breakfast (Extra)

Pros: Check in was a breeze. Room was clean and tidy although a little tired. Beds were comfortable. Location was great as it was next to Mickelgate so easy to reach most area's of the city within the walls. Cons: The shower was electric (First ini a hotel for me) and although adequate, there was not a lot of water flow/pressure. The default breakfast, i.e. continental choices were limited. The cooked breakfast (Extra) was good.

Speziell,einzigartig

Pros: Die lage ist super,auch das Personal ist sehr nett. Im hotel selber ist ein Museum, dadurch wirkt er noch spezieller. Das Frühstück war bescheiden, aber man kann dazu bestellen, wenn man was anderes will (ekstra bezahlen). Cons: Das Becken in Zimmer ist winzig, dafür die Dusche groß.
