Room we were given was an absolute disgrace. The water pressure was that high the drainage was unable to cope causing flooding to bathrooms. This flooding was that bad it made the floors very slippery and caused me slip.
The wall was falling off the decoration was coming off and mould was everywhere
The valve on the radiator was not functioning properly so the room temperature was so high we had to sleep with the window open waking up in the night shivering and closing the window. The radiator went cold overnight when the heating went off.
The floor flooded making the tiled floor very slippery

We had an enjoyable overnight stay at the Minster Hotel. We'd been given a room upgrade and it was lovely and clean and spacious. Everything you needed with tea and coffee and biscuits supplied. Bathroom was spotless. The bed was so comfortable and had one of the best sleeps ever. Staff very welcoming , polite friendly and extremely helpful. On departure,staff let us leave our luggage for a few hours to enable us to enjoy some time in the beautiful city centre and the Xmas markets. Will definitely be returning here.
