Exploring Hull City Centre and Old Town ⁴ᴷ⁶⁰

[@clivechadburn6342]

Thinking of moving up there from Dartford . As I have heard there's very little traffic there ?

[@trevorbailey2431]

I lived in Hull for over 30 years and I go back to Hull twice a year for a week to see my family, who live in Anlaby, we stay in the Gilson Hotel . its always good to come back to Hull every year.

[@WalkRainorShine]

What's the biggest changes you've seen over that time

[@Kris_1708]

Wow that’s a bad hotel to stay in nice and cheap though

[@trevorbailey2431]

@@Kris_1708 well i do come across a lot of complaints but they are stupid complaints like its too noisy etc when its in the middle of a city. anyway we always enjoy it there, at least its better than Hotel Camponile up the road.

[@trevorbailey2431]

@@Kris_1708 we enjoy it there, we have been going twice a year for a week and we enjoy it there, I see my family from there, they live in Anlaby. the complaints that the Gilson Hotel gets some of them are silly complaints like, it was noisy at night etc, well it is in the middle of a busy city, its not for everyone but I used to live in Hull so I am used to it.

How long were you in Hull for

[@Michelle-xt4dc]

@WalkRainorShine I was born there... never thought I would leave but...

[@cozmicpretzscher]

Wow, I left Hull 18 year ago, hardly recognised some of this, especially the bridge going to the Marina. Another thing where are all the people, it used to be busy all the time.

[@WalkRainorShine]

Even more development planned around the marina area apparently...

[@Kris_1708]

It is busy on a weekend tbf

[@citylets8802]

Why does Hull get a bad wrap?

[@WalkRainorShine]

Over the years I've visited I've seen a massive change and upgrade in the city centre...outside of the city I can't really say

[@trevorbailey2431]

I don't know why too, I live in Warwickshire but I am from Hull, me and the wife go back to Hull for a week twice a year for a week to see my family who live in Anlaby and we enjoy it.

[@Kris_1708]

Because in 2005 they wrote a book of crap towns Hull was number one and the stigma has sticked

[@jamestrent-nw9zb]

Cos' it's crap.

[@richardwhite6071]

Hull isn't that bad really. It's quiet. Could be worse you could be in Birmingham! now that place is a proper dump.

[@WalkRainorShine]

It's somewhere I've not been.

[@stevensteele364]

This is Hull city center not Huĺl take a walk round Bransholme Greatfield Longhill bothferry estate . That is Huĺl not this loverly place you depict

[@kirsanproductions]

the title of the video clearly says, "Hull City Centre"

[@stevensteele364]

Yes sorry didnt see that

[@WalkRainorShine]

@@stevensteele364 my bro lives down in Hull and he says he couldn't agree with you more! When he first moved down all he really saw was the city centre... Was only until he saw some of the places you mentioned that he realised what it was really like.

[@stevensteele364]

@@WalkRainorShine i was born and bred on Bransholme and only very rarely went to town it was a big deal if you went to town

[@liamkisbee8117]

@@stevensteele364 I'm on bransholme to lol its still the same and has been since I've lived here. It takes 45 mins to walk from Snowden way to Leeds Road to put in perspective of how big the estate is and a further half hour from Leeds Road to the town center

[@grahambb]

Hull crap glad I left
