Loved the central location, easy walking distance for everything, properly is currently undergoing some renovations, our room was basic, but clean and comfortable. Check in procedure was difficult for an overseas visitor as the only method was via calling a uk mobile number which we were unable to do with our Australian phones, a simple addition of a doorbell would be great. Another simple addition which would make a big difference would be a mirror in the room close to a power point, so that you can see to dry and style your hair, I ended up sitting in the doorway so I could use the hallway mirror. Otherwise I was very happy with our stay.

Everything was great mostly - the sink was a bit funny at times, and there was very loud construction in the next room over that we weren’t warned about before, but overall a great experience

A true budget option. Located a mile from the rail station and a short distance away from the city centre, so whilst not that convenient it was quiet. The room was cramped with a sloping ceiling and no daily room service, no lift to upper floors. Check-in was unnecessarily complicated. You have to phone a UK number to get the code! Never have I had to do that and I had to make an expensive call from a US phone. They should have advised to call on WhatsApp, or better yet, sent the code in an email as most modern hotels do. Shower pressure was poor, mould on the ceiling and the sink drain smelt. On the positive side, it was clean and they provided an ample tea tray but that's not enough to spur me to stay here again.

Good if you don't plan to spend time in room

Close to town centre. Great id you don't plan to spend much time there. Beds are clean, bathroom needs an upgrade. Daughter sliced her thumb on the stairs banister. Everything is organised over the phone, don't really see any staff.

York disappointment

The staff were very friendly & really helpful sorting our parking out was no problem. The room was much smaller then we expected so not very comfortable. The shower head was disgusting with faeces which my husband cleaned before he used it !!! Why was there a humming fridge in the room when food & drink were not allowed??Very disappointed sadly.

The staff did not want to talk much, but were willing to help with everything we asked for, they keep the accommodation wonderfully warm! I'd improve the floorboards but otherwise, I'd absolutely stay again and am sure I would have a relaxing time if I did! I'd thank them for the staff's efforts

Pleasant and comfortable

Good location just a few minutes walk from the centre. Access was via a phone call and then being provided with a code. Key card then in the room. Really clean. Was a single night stay and didn’t spend long in the room however can’t fault it for location and price. I was on top floor so also was relatively quiet. Didn’t hear the other residents. I also had my own bathroom which I don’t think all rooms have as I saw separate bathrooms on other floors. I would recommend for a short trip where you want to have a central location. I didn’t drive so can’t comment on parking.

This was perfect for our family of 5- really easy walkable distance to Xmas market, Minster and pantomime. As a crash pad for the night, it was fine and we’d definitely use it again. Staff were fantastic and couldn’t be more helpful, including helping us with parking across the road and permit for £7.50 but this is limited. Cons- the room and fixtures/fittings are tired and need updating. Few stains on carpet etc.
