Happy traveller

A late booking ahead of a 8:30 pm arrival. Excellent service provided over the phone, followed up with text and email to make sure that I’d received instructions of how to access the hotel and my room. A comfortable night’s sleep. Easy walk to city Centre.

They didn't have my booking on the system so checking in was not great. Booked breakfast but don't serve that until 8:15 which is not ideal when away on business.

I got the luxury ensuite. The bed, whilst big, was very uncomfortable and was very firm. Additionally me and my partner are quite heavy, and the slats on the bed felt like they were at risk of giving way. Also the plug sockets lacked usb charging ports which created a pickle for us as we needed that yo charge our phones for a long drive the next day. We both felt like a travelodge or premier inn wouldve probably been a better idea. The staff were friendly and the bath was very nice though.

This property is advertised as a Hotel. Not so, it is a B/B property. Apart from the breakfast and staff, the property was so disappointing for us. We were in an attic conversion, no lock at all on bathroom door, curtains falling from window, poor dirty windows, lots of stairs to room obv, which we had not known about, I could go on. This property can surely not be a 4 Star AA standard. I will be interested to hear your views on this matter. On our trip, we stayed in 3 other similar priced properties, this one did not come close to their standard. This "Hotel" description is not correct in my opinion.

Good location & breakfast

Good location and nice cooked breakfast. Booked for a cheap get a way within walking distance however sprung a £10 charge for parking on me in addition for using their car park which I couldn’t find mentioned anywhere although tbf still cheaper than pay & displays in York. Hosts & staff friendly maybe a bit dated but it does have character.

Nice place and host but cold

Host is great, they are friendly and accommodating. The Google map link in email directs to parking lot, which is in the back of the building. Room is super COLD, even when turned the heat to max. And the heat was turned off automatically not sure when, but the room was freezing cold in the morning.

Lovely accommodation

Only issue I had was with the parking around the back, they charged for it (£10) and it was a very tight space right outside a school, so leaving in the morning was very difficult. Otherwise, the accommodation was lovely.
