Excellent hotel
Lovely place to stay. Room was spotless. You could tell entering the room that the couple who own the property were truly passionate about the hotel. Nice little extras like biscuits/chocolate/shampoo/shower gel. Nice selection of tea/coffee/hot chocolate. Hotel in a nice location - 1 mile walk from train station, quiet nice area near race course, but also close to City Centre

Great guesthouse
Lovely room. Clean, tidy, and a comfortable bed. Regular buses into town. Also a reasonable, safe walk into and back from town.

This guest house is nicely situated near to the Knavesmire and York Racecourse and also within walking distance of the walled city of York. Our room was comfortable and bright and the staff, including Allison, were very attentive. Paid parking is available but we were able to park in the road outside the guesthouse without charge.

Room was nicely decorated and clean, however much smaller than we were hoping for considering price we paid without breakfast. Bed was nice and comfortable and parking on street was available. Only an overnight stay so only met a staff member on arrival to receive key etc but was friendly enough.

Very average
No real complaints but very dated, very old tv, don't pay for parking you can park outside the front door for free. £455 for two nights add £20 to park and £60 for breakfast adds up to very expensive for a very dated room.

Uni visit
Room is amazing for families. The bunk beds are cleverly tucked away in a corner.
Alas the bathroom is a failure. Damp and smelly. All the more frustrating given it’s freshly refurbished but the open shower area sprays water all over and the floor doesn’t drain away. So disaster and dampness ensues. Smell is awful.
As a minimum the floor needs relaying.
