It’s a great place to stay, that conveniently close to important touristy places and restaurants and that uncommonly includes a fairly good breakfast. Only thing to improve is an weird humidity smell in the hallways to our bedroom. I still would totally recommend.

Overall we enjoyed our stay. It was close to the town center and the wall. The rooms are a bit small and the bed is a full size so not very comfortable for couples sleeping together. The staff was awesome!

Pretty average. Overpriced due to there being university open days that weekend. There was no draught beer in the bar as they had run out.

Good location
Expensive to say no breakfast included and no parking on site. Staff are helpful. Room very clean and well appointed. Breakfast was ok but not value for money. Good location for city centre, Clifford’s Tower, Jorvik and the Barbican.
