The City Rooms

This is quite a nice place if you're looking to stay in a listed building at a reasonable price. The exterior is gorgeous. The room itself, on the top floor, was roomy, clean and the bathroom exceptional with a great tub/shower. Theres a good breeze with the windows open. The views are fun and the chiming clock tower was charming. It's close to the Richard III museum which was why I chose it.

There has to be somewhere in a building this size where one could install a small lift. Four flights of stairs did me in, and limited how much I went out. The room was nice so I was happy to stay up in my little tower. Going out though, I had to be careful on every step I took. I held onto the handrail - unfortunately it's not very clean. Kind of gross actually. On my last day there the mgmt changed the front door code and did not notify me. I can be reached very easily with my U.S. number on WhatsApp. That was a huge problem. Thankfully there was someone there about a wedding, and I got in. But with all my luggage INSIDE and me OUTSIDE and not knowing if I had a place to sleep for the night, it was somewhat frightening. Again, this could be a fabulous place with some attention to DETAIL.

Nice place, both the room and bathroom were super sized. A little quirky place, but we enjoyed the fact that there was not a reception and we could come and go as we pleased. Fridge in the room.

The matress had a spring or two broken.

Excellent location

Door lock to room extremely difficult to open unserviced. TV doesn’t work unless you like you tube or have your own Netflix subscription

Great location. Large rooms

No lifts. The staircase is dangerous to take luggage up to the room.. Parking is easy. But then finding the accommodation after parking is very confusing. Shower is risky for seniors. Very noisy location.
