Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Great location and price. Slightly outdated and was woken up a few times overnight due to noise from other guests going in and out of rooms (earplugs were provided by the hotel but I mistakenly did not use them). Overall very good for a cheap night close to the city centre.

The room was amazing for what I was paying and was like a mini apartment. It was in a safe area close to shops. I am not a fan of contact free service and would have enjoyed conversation with staff but saw no one the whole time. Otherwise it was an awesome stay.

Great value and location

Everywhere was clean and tidy. The improvements made by the new owners work much better like the new reception area they have created with a lovely mural of York. The rooms are all being renovated to a good standard with coffee pod machines as well as the usual kettle.We will definitely be back.

A nice little hotel, close to the centre and restaurants. We only booked one night so we could meet with friends in the city, but will definitely stay here again when visiting York in the future.
