7.2/10

The hotel offers a decent stay with basic rooms lacking a mini fridge but showcasing old pictures of York. The breakfast selection is varied, including full English and continental options, with the convenience of outdoor seating. However, noise disturbances from banging doors and loud conversations across rooms can be off-putting.

The service is satisfactory overall, catering to everyone's needs. However, there were instances of noise disruptions, notably from a male staff member's loud conversations. Despite that, I've stayed here multiple times.
