Excellent location. The staff in the pub were friendly and delightful. The room was clean. The double bed in room 7 needs a new mattress and a wood slate is underneath the bed and should be fixed. But overall a very pleasant stay for the one night.

Our stay was brilliant the staff were fantastic & so friendly. I was unaware that there was on site free parking so I ended up paying but other than that it was an excellent stay.

Very convenient location for exploring York. Surprisingly quiet considering it's above a pub. It was a bit dilapidated, but very clean. Couldn't get the TV to work, and felt awkward to ask for assistance, since there's no front desk, just the pub.

basic one-night stay
Accommodating of late check-in, good parking. Good central location. Bed clean. Bathroom mouldy. Noise from other rooms/toilets very loud. No blackout curtains and broken blinds. Lots of daylight and potential for onlookers.

The staff here was so nice! It isn't in the most scenic part of the city, but it was safe enough and the property was fine. There is a lovely deck outside overlooking a canal. If you are looking for a good deal that is a short walk from the more historic areas, this is a good choice.

Rated on would I stay again. The answer would be no. Room was poor and the bathroom had mould on the ceiling, tiles and the shower hose and head needed a very good clean.

Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Staff were very nice. Accomodations did not match the pictures. Room was painfully small. There was no place to open luggage. Full bed took up most of the room. No lighting by bedside, only one light overhead. Shower head sprayed water outside of shower and drain was so slow that overflow threatened to spill over onto floor. Only one outlet available and teapot needed to sit on floor to plug in because of length of cord. Mattress very thin futon. We were miserable.
