Inexpensive hotel in a great location and five minutes walk to the centre of York, having the added advantage of onsite car parking. Have stayed here twice now and will definitely be staying again. Far exceeded our expectations for what first appears to be a budget hotel.

The room was very adequate and clean. The staff were lovely, Daniel looked after us very well. Breakfast was incredible. I had to ask for a smaller one. We were just near enough to walk into the main part. We would book there again

Pros: very friendly staff, comfortable room and bedding, very good for the couple of nights I spent there. Cons: walls are very thin. First night no issue, second night was unlucky enough to have a neighbour flush their toilet at 5am, which sounded like the whole building was coming down, and other neighbours making a ruckus at 6am. Also had some silverfish in the bathroom, but those are tough to avoid in the uk.
