I would recommend a stay here for the fabulous central location. The room was clean and check in instructions were very clear. Please be aware there was no reception as such, but if needed you can leave your luggage at the bar next door, and there were emergency contacts listed. We didn't need any of this but good to know. There were a couple of bottles of water in the room and some discount vouchers, all of which were an unexpected bonus. The kitchenette was handy if you wanted to make a drink or heat up a microwave meal. The only downside was the noise from the bar below, however earplugs were provided. We had to keep the windows closed but a large fan was in the room so the heat wasn't a big issue. Excellent value for money for a clean, comfortable room in a great location.

Paper thin walls
Good location and sizeable room, but not value for money. Easy check in. The sheets weren't clean. Expected the noise to come from the bars below, but the noise was predominantly those in rooms next door - walls are paper thin.

Lovely room...a little loud!
Great little hostel in the middle of york. The street is very busy and lined with bars. There was loud music until late which we could hear but didn't effect us too much as our room was at the back in the city walls room. Very clean and comfortable and what we expected from the price paid. A much cheaper option than other hotels but I wouln't recommend if youwant an ealy night!

Our holiday was amazing. The hostel far exceeded expectation. The ocean room came with an ensuite. We had fresh towels and toiletries. There were complimentary tea, coffee, hot chocolate, and botted water. Our greeter carried my suitcase up the stairs for me. There was even a lavender mister, large fan, and super comfy beds. I was also able to leave my suitcase with them. The staff were ever so nice and helpful. Definitely recommend. Definitely visit again. The location is superb. Not more than a 5 minute walk to everywhere. Thank you so much for our stay
