    Was unable to watch TV, it had some TV apps available. Bed a little squeaky but comfortable enough.

    The room was lovely and cosy, tea facilities in room, hairdryer provided, friendly staff. We checked out on a Sunday when the cafe was closed but complimentary cereal and toast was provided. (Was a lovely touch). Slight issue was shower head/rail a little loose, nothing major was still able to move and use as needed just a little thing to know :)

    Book the bigger room it is really nice compared to the smaller one and the radiators work.

    • The original room was tiny and the decor does not match the photos. It seems they have repainted everything in a light grey colour which somehow looks older than the white/cream colour in the photos which must be really old but they make the room look much fresher than reality. • No hooks anywhere to put towels or anything... this seems quite common in hotels these days, I don't know why they don't think to put hooks around, it makes a huge difference. • Strict 10am checkout seemed really challengingly early

    • Once we got upgraded to a better room it was an ok place to stay but the initial room was awful ( radiators did not work due to needing a 'bleed' so it felt cold and damp, but they did not have even a screwdriver to do it even though I offered to do it ). • A nice friendly local local pub below • Checkin early was much appreciated

    A few spots in the bathroom missed when cleaning. Bedroom needs a lick of paint.

    Bedroom was clean and comfortable. Breakfast wasn't included but I would highly recommend getting it from the cafe down stairs as it was excellent. The pizzas in the evening where also good.

    Room was scruffy, no TV aerial lead, hole in bathroom flooring, toilet seat needed refixing, side lamp covered in dust and first time I sat on the bed couple of the slats moved and collapsed the corner of the bed.

    Bar and staff and breakfast good

    Room was small, but okay for a single night. The room was clean, but overall, a bit tatty. The bed was comfortable and the room was warm. Breakfast was in a community cafe, which had a good choice and very good prices.

    the room was small, it had noise from the downstairs pub. bathroom is small, but it was fine to use.

    The location is very close to the city centre. The appointment was upstairs and downstairs is a pub. The parking is just in the front of the pub and is free. the room is very compatability. It doesn't have much space for 3 people. The bed was fine. Facilities in the room were fine. Check in-out needs to do with Pub at downstairs. The room is private.

    The room was ok, it was clean & tidy. It's what you'd expect for a room above a pub, very handy for a few pints. Location is a bit out of York city so if you have a car it's all good.

    We booked a family room for 3 for 1 night.. the room felt crammed even with 2 small (cabin) suitcases.. though the bunk bed did give it an interesting twist.. also, fresh water was missing from the room, though the owner did promptly give us a large glass of water.. if you're travelling light maybe it will be comfortable, but cross country tourists had better request a bigger room.

    The gentleman was very prompt in checking us in even though he was busy at the Bar. All the information required was displayed on the room wall ..the TV was working and in good order along with the responsive remote.. the location is fairly good and walking distance (12 minutes) from the Railway museum. He was kind enough to also hold our luggage for us while we spent some extra time in the City.

    The whole place needs a good clean/repaint, TV didn't work in the room, some lighting didn't work, stains on carpets and curtains but overall a nice decent sized room.

    Lovely staff, friendly place and close to the centre. Breakfast was amazing!

    There was noise in the evening but the fan drowned it out. The beds were very hard but ok for one night. The carpet needed replacing but it was clean!

    The price was excellent! The room was clean, towels and bedding fresh. There was a fan provided which was lovely!!

    The ground floor is the pub. It's good for somebody who like the music but not me. It's quite loud until 11.30. If you are an exhausted traveller, I am not recommend this place. But if you love music, let's go for it.

    Everything was good, just as expected.

    A great, traditional and really friendly pub. Fantastic atmosphere, decent beer and perfect location for the railway museum. The room was perfect for me and my two boys and was exactly as I expected. Will definitely book again on my next trip to York.
