The hotel is well situated for exploring York but it is in quite bad condition. The front is shabby with long grass and it all just need a a good tidy. The room was in pretty poor nick, the door kept getting stuck on the carpet strip. But the worse was when we came back to the room in the evening, the bathroom stank of sewage, it was awful trying to brush our teeth with the smell in there and it smelt all the next morning. I understand it’s a budget room but it was an awful smell to have to be around for so long. Myself and my wife also had to help a lady who couldn’t speak much English try and check in, it was not that late on in the day but there is no staff present so she had to try and check in over the phone and wait for a call back. It was an awkward situation for her but luckily we were there to help her in. Parking was easy though, and the bed was comfy but I doubt very much I would stay again

Guest house very close to Hospital. Tricky to find on street parking, then you only have 10 mins to get checked in and get a Parking permit issues. Checked in at 14.00, entrance hall full of of bed linen bags ready to picked up... Trip hazard and fire risk in my opinion and didn't seem inviting. Kitchen area when checking in looked very dishevelled and didn't give good impression. Room was clean but various issues including shower room towel rail hanging off, incorrect lamp with sensor in shower room with no way of isolating fan on a night but still having light, curtains looked old and tired and some clips missing, ground floor window had no way of locking slightly open so room was roasting. To be totally honest, we wouldn't stay there again. It was £107 per night but probably worth half that. Manageress was very friendly and helpful though... Property just nerds a bit of TLC maintenance wise.

I spoke to the hotels.com online agent and was told I’d get a phone call about my complaint, I didn’t. I am going to get my money back because this place isn’t fit for purpose. Absolutely disgusting hygiene and service when we arrived was awful, we had to walk out and spend more money on a premier inn (which was excellent might I add) absolutely disgusted at the idea that a hotel like that would be even advertised on your website, and then even more disgusted that when told I’d get a phone call from you ive been left in the dark. I will be on the phone Monday morning, from one unhappy customer.

This accommodation didn’t appear to be very posh and the room looked a bit dull BUT the beds were very comfortable, there was perfect silence during the night and the internet WiFi worked( despite a glitch at first possibly due to my own input or lots of others using it. To be honest this is a lot better than in the usual well known chain hotels that cost at least twice the price. Yup ! We were very happy with everything and a big THANK YOU to those responsible for this place.

Slightly complicated check in process with nobody on site and having to call a mobile number. However, once I was in everything was very clear. My room was up 2 very steep sets of stairs. It was compact but clean, with a small ensuite. The shower pressure was very weak unfortunately, but otherwise the room was excellent value for money. I especially appreciated being able to leave my luggage, and when I came back, I had a very friendly welcome. The hotel is an easy 15/20 minute walk to the centre of York, and although it's on a main road, I didn't hear any traffic. I'll stay again.
