First the positives, the area was really convenient for the barbican theatre, and was relatively quiet compared to central York. Once the pub closed downstairs the place was nice and quiet and I got a really good nights sleep in the comfy bed, and the blackout curtains were great. I felt safe as a solo female traveller which is a huge plus, and all the staff were so friendly and welcoming and happy to help. Also, to have tea and biscuits in the room was a nice touch. Overall, well worth the money as such a reasonable price. However slightly let down with the cleanliness as parts of the room (especially the bathroom) felt outdated and a little on the grubby side, also the handle on the outside of my door was hanging off, meaning I had to swing and slam it shut so I could leave things safely in the room, which I felt was poor and really should have been fixed before guests stayed in the room. Having said that, I would definitely stay again and would recommend if you’re looking for somewhere cheap and convenient, as long as the issue with the door was fixed.

Handy place to stay whilst we visited the Barbican for the Snooker final. It was a short walk from there. Staff were friendly, ample parking on site, food and drink were at good prices and the food was lovely. The pub and room had a traditional 'York' feel about them, but we're still well kept and clean with all the facilities you require. Will definitely stop there again.

Very friendly host and staff. Room good for what we paid. Pub has some wonderful period features including the bar itself. Breakfast was one of the best full English we have ever had. Only had the one night as a stop off but it did the trick.

A little noise from the bar area

A reasonable stay. Room was clean and tidy, dated in some ways but freshly decorated in other ways. Noise from the bar below and other guests could be a bit annoying.
