    The hotel serves nice hot continental breakfast with a welcome slice of banana bread, salmon and home baked bread. The location it offers is incredible, next to all the wonderful attractions York has to offer, the centre down a straight road and the shops and sights.

    Charming historical building, Free parking convenience, Accessible local guides

    Some rooms, like the Snickleways, felt cramped for the price!!! Shower pressure in the Ebor Suite left much to be desired!!! Better bathroom shelf space needed for toiletries!!! Thin walls could lead to disruptions during your stay!!!

    The location sits conveniently near the river, perfect for easy strolls to attractions. The rooms feature a cozy binder with local information and a nice touch of homemade banana bread upon arrival.

    Breakfast left a bit to be desired. Food arrived lukewarm and the eggs were dry. You have to pre-order the night before, hinting at bulk cooking. The separation of the kitchen was odd-sounds and smells seeped through the door, and the double duvet was short. A TV in the room would've been a nice addition too.

    tricky shower

    We visited the local museum and enjoyed the beautiful gardens nearby. The breakfast was a highlight-homemade bread and great coffee every morning! Our room wasnice and neat, helping us relax after a busy day. The hosts were super friendly.

    The shower was tricky to manage, switching between hot and cold. Could've used some instructions.

    homemade cake
    cozy decor
    weak shower
    creaky bed

    The room was spacious, clean, and had a comfy bed, made it easy to relax. I loved the little extras like the homemade cake waiting for me upon arrival. The atmosphere was cozy, with nice decor and I really appreciated the thoughtful touches throughout my stay. A couple of things, though, the shower pressure was pretty weak, a bit annoying. The bed creaked a lot, made for some awkward moments. Pretty great stay.

    Great hosts and cozy vibes

    Danny was super friendly and hooked us up with a phone charger. The location was chill, just a quick 10 min walk to the center. Our room was cozy and clean. The breakfast was delish. Loved the outdoor dining area! Only bummer was parking was a bit tricky sometimes.

    homemade banana bread
    friendliness

    Ideal spot for the discerning traveler

    You know the homemade banana bread waiting for you in the room was killer. The breakfast had the best warm, fresh baked bread I've ever had. It's like they put a little bit of heaven on the plate with their scrambled eggs and smoked salmon. Oh and the staff? They're a joy, , makes you feel like you're visiting family who really care.

    Not exactly cheap but it was acceptable for what we got.
