A late booking ahead of a 8:30 pm arrival. Excellent service provided over the phone, followed up with text and email to make sure that I’d received instructions of how to access the hotel and my room. A comfortable night’s sleep. Easy walk to city Centre.

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.

They didn't have my booking on the system so checking in was not great. Booked breakfast but don't serve that until 8:15 which is not ideal when away on business.

Very helpful staff, however make sure to reserve parking as it doesn't mention this when booking through Hotels.com but they have limited space.

Booked for a 2 night stay in a luxury room with en suite and 4 poster bed however that’s not what we got
When we arrived we where given a standard double which was the cheaper rate room after a chat at reception it appears hotels.com sold me a room that wasn’t available so nothing more anyone could do
I was offered a refund for the difference but Iv been home for a week and still nothing so now Iv taken the mater up with the booking site
Hotel was very dated and not the cleanest of places but location wise it was 5 minutes to the train station 10 minutes to town and the breakfast was decent
We stayed on a very warm weekend and there was no air con or a fan available making it impossible to sleep
Would I stay here again simple answer is no

I got the luxury ensuite. The bed, whilst big, was very uncomfortable and was very firm. Additionally me and my partner are quite heavy, and the slats on the bed felt like they were at risk of giving way. Also the plug sockets lacked usb charging ports which created a pickle for us as we needed that yo charge our phones for a long drive the next day. We both felt like a travelodge or premier inn wouldve probably been a better idea. The staff were friendly and the bath was very nice though.

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.
