I found the room quite lovely and quirky.. the staff offered friendly service. The location provided easy access to the area. I also appreciated the warm atmosphere in the evening, mingling with locals and other guests.
I found the floorboards a bit creaky, perhaps due to the building's age.

Comfortable Yorkshire Stay

coffee making facilitiesbreakfast navigationmarket squarelimited selection
My room included tea and coffee making facilities. A recent power cut in the area was navigated well during breakfast. I appreciated the plentiful parking available in the market square near the hotel.
The beer selection was somewhat limited. Only three out of five pumps were operational . This reduced the choices available to beer drinkers.
