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.

Really disappointing. Booked partly for the parking - was none available and even if it had been, the car park was awful with cars getting trapped by others. Room was tired. Sink didnt drain properly, tv remote didnt work, bedside light didnt work, window blind didnt work, with greasy finger marks on bathroom wall and watermarks all over tap The guy who was there when we arrived was nice but id emailed in the week to ask for one of the rooms with a bath (they encourage emails to ask for specific rooms) and got no reply and a room with no bath - suspect this is due to understaffing as only saw the man once, otherwise were no staff present. Generally just felt unloved and done very much on the cheap. Only reason not one star was because bed was comfortable and shower warm and powerful. Wanted to book somewhere independent but hotel was not comfortable and wish id booked a premier inn!

Liked: Staff & service
Staff were very helpful and I appreciated that they honoured not charging for parking as shown on my booking. The breakfast was nice but I found a mouldy strawberry in the fruit. We had a missing bath towel and they immediately bought one. The Wi-Fi was not that good so all in all a pleasant stay but not overwhelming.
