Happy with the room, very clean with good facilities, excellent freshly cooked breakfast.
This place was outstanding and a little gem found. The staff were so welcoming and ready to help with any questions, directions etc. The breakfast was one of the best I've ever had and plenty of it. A wide choice and as we preferred streaky bacon to what was served the chief ordered fresh in. Our only grip if it is due the age of the building was the flushing of the toilet and one on occasion no hot water. Would highly recommend it.
Great central location, private parking, wonderful breakfast and friendly staff

The staff were very helpful & friendly. The hotel rooms are a bit dated but very clean and the bed very comfortable. The dressing table has no lamp or light nearby, so it is hard to get ready, appying make up as the bathroom light isn't great either. There is a pub across the road which played loud music until 2am plus lots of noise outside first thing because of the main road. Saying that, we enjoyed our stay . The hotel is in a great location close to the sites if you don't mind the noise.
Great location in the middle of things. Easy walk to the train station with food and drinks available right downstairs. Friendly staff. Nice breakfast to order with delicious pancakes.
Comfortable rooms above historic pub very close to everything in the York downtown. Great breakfast (with lots of good choices) & large nicely landscaped beer garden connected to the pub.
