No smell of urine, male or female on my visit, but the interior tiling is indeed beautiful, a quite cavernous high ceilinged main room with a long bar running down the centre with six handpumps in total, just a choice of Purity Mad Goose or Oakham Citra, the latter being in good shape. The gripe I have was the music, albeit a good selection it was being played full whack with people having to shout their orders over the bar, totally unnecessary and has cost them a point.

Surely one of the most beautiful pubs in the country, but after taking a few external photos and entering the pub my impression was not one of aesthetic wonder but revulsion at the smell filling the corridor from the gents' toilet. Luckily it didn't permeate as far as the bar counter, but my beer, Pale Brummie from Birmingham brewery, was in poor condition. I took a few more photos of the stunning windows and tiles, but the spell was broken. Throwing a few disinfectant cubes into a urinal does not constitute cleaning it, any more than you can look after a real ale without tasting it, smelling it and checking for clarity at the start of the day and from time to time thereafter. Only the magnificent appearance of this pub, both outside and in, saves it from an ignominious rating of 1.

A terrific interior, illuminated on a sunny afternoon by the large windows. Clientele seemed to be largely students checking out the cocktails. Our alcoholic interest centred on the 5 cask ales from smaller breweries and in excellent condition. Staff were on good form and helpful enough to point out the word "hazy" on the pump clip when we enquired about the clarity of one of the pints (which tasted just fine).
Definitely a mandatory stop if you're checking out the pubs of the Jewellery Quarter.
