Very clean and comfy even provided a fridge. The only fault was the kettle didn't work when i went to make a cup of tea in the morning. Otherwise excellent.

The room was average,cleeaniness could be better. The cups and kettle was filthy. There was no disturbence by the other people which was a plus point. There is a bus stop just outside the lodge from which you can get a bus to city centre.

Horrid
I spoke to the hotels.com online agent and was told I’d get a phone call about my complaint, I didn’t. I am going to get my money back because this place isn’t fit for purpose. Absolutely disgusting hygiene and service when we arrived was awful, we had to walk out and spend more money on a premier inn (which was excellent might I add) absolutely disgusted at the idea that a hotel like that would be even advertised on your website, and then even more disgusted that when told I’d get a phone call from you ive been left in the dark. I will be on the phone Monday morning, from one unhappy customer.

Reasonably convenient location to city centre. No reception, had to phone a number to gain access of which I didn’t like, I prefer someone at the location to at least provide a key and give information if asked

Cheap clean accommodation with no frills.
Clean comfoftable accommodation but i was given a room on top floor.3 flights of steep stairs.Had to use my phone to book in.No breakfast despite being mentioned on hotels.com.No suggestion made where to go for breakfast.Wetherspoon is nr the station so over a mile away.A mile walk from city.It was mentioned to be in clifton but was over a mile from clifton sports centre where i wanted to go to watch yorkshire cricket.Had to have the fan on all night as no air conditioning on a very hot day.Room next door vibrated at 3am!They have tried to economise when they could have offered a better service and charged more.Ok for one night only.

Far from city
There is no staff. I am from Japan. I did not take the phone number. But my daughter had the phone number so we could check-in. If you came here without the phone I would not recommend it. Also, I would recommend this hotel. It is quite far from the city if you would like to see Central.

Good value
Slightly complicated check in process with nobody on site and having to call a mobile number. However, once I was in everything was very clear. My room was up 2 very steep sets of stairs. It was compact but clean, with a small ensuite. The shower pressure was very weak unfortunately, but otherwise the room was excellent value for money. I especially appreciated being able to leave my luggage, and when I came back, I had a very friendly welcome.
The hotel is an easy 15/20 minute walk to the centre of York, and although it's on a main road, I didn't hear any traffic. I'll stay again.

Handy Guest House for Hospital.
Guest house very close to Hospital. Tricky to find on street parking, then you only have 10 mins to get checked in and get a
Parking permit issues.
Checked in at 14.00, entrance hall full of of bed linen bags ready to picked up... Trip hazard and fire risk in my opinion and didn't seem inviting. Kitchen area when checking in looked very dishevelled and didn't give good impression.
Room was clean but various issues including shower room towel rail hanging off, incorrect lamp with sensor in shower room with no way of isolating fan on a night but still having light, curtains looked old and tired and some clips missing, ground floor window had no way of locking slightly open so room was roasting.
To be totally honest, we wouldn't stay there again. It was £107 per night but probably worth half that.
Manageress was very friendly and helpful though... Property just nerds a bit of TLC maintenance wise.

Possibly the worst hotel in York
Firstly this is all my opinion.
So the place says it is 4 stars as rated by Enjoy England I have looked them up repeatedly and cannot see such an awarding body, so to me that seems like a lie.
Again that won't be the only (in my opinion) lie that they say to get people to stay but we'll get to that. It says that it is close to the city centre do you consider 20 minutes on foot close? Again it doesn't tell you it's next to a hospital or show you the front of the building in it's pictures that's because it's a house and a pokey one at that.
Next let's move on to the rules they don't tell you about before arrival, you are not allowed alcohol in the room you are not allowed takeaway in the room and you are strongly encouraged not to make any noise after 10pm what is more fun when you're on holiday than copius rules?
On top of that the rooms are incredibly small it feels like you're in someone's back bedroom, which wouldn't be a problem if that was clearly shown that was what it was but it wasn't clear. Also whilst in there you feel incredibly on view and like you have to be on your best behavior again as though you are staying with a parent not want you want on holiday. Relaxation isn't on the cards.
Finally, the staircase is a deathtrap (in my opinion) incredibly steep and not wheelchair friendly, also the front of the property is very icy and that is also hazardous.
Oh and the online check in procedure where you have to give you passport details is also irritating.

Not a good experience
The hotel is well situated for exploring York but it is in quite bad condition. The front is shabby with long grass and it all just need a a good tidy.
The room was in pretty poor nick, the door kept getting stuck on the carpet strip. But the worse was when we came back to the room in the evening, the bathroom stank of sewage, it was awful trying to brush our teeth with the smell in there and it smelt all the next morning. I understand it’s a budget room but it was an awful smell to have to be around for so long.
Myself and my wife also had to help a lady who couldn’t speak much English try and check in, it was not that late on in the day but there is no staff present so she had to try and check in over the phone and wait for a call back. It was an awkward situation for her but luckily we were there to help her in.
Parking was easy though, and the bed was comfy but I doubt very much I would stay again
