I have stayed here a few times over the years and have always been happy with this hotel. The beds were comfortable, and the toilet and shower were clean, with plenty of hot water. The room I stayed in, (5), was above the main gate which meant it could be a bit noisy early in the morning, but not too serious. Staying above a bar, can be a bit noisy, but that is only to be expected. The room was very warm, I had to turn the radiator down, not a bad thing. The hotel is situated five minutes walk from the shambles with plenty of bars and traditional pubs. I recommend the Blue Bell, two minutes away, and The Golden Fleece for it's ghosts and entertainment. All in all a very pleasurable stay. I look forward to returning soon.
