Room was exceptionally clean and staff was very nice. Location is safe although a bit far of a walking distance from town.

The staff made us feel at home from the start. A mom in her 50s with her 10 year old son might not be the most common hostel traveler ;) They made sure the movie in the evening was age appropriate and set up table tennis for us post work hours in the common room. The location is great as well. A short bus ride to the train station or downtown, which you can also reach by foot in 20 min. All around a great stay in beautiful York!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    Great staff who are willing to help. You only buy a towel for yourself and it's nice. Very convenient location in the centre but away from the bars. Reception 24/7 and you can buy earplugs. For the cheapest hostel I've seen, it's great.

    One the best hostels I’ve been so far, and I travel quite often. The familiar atmosphere, the coziness of the living room where they played EuroCup matches. The staff is friendly and you’ll have them cooking with you in the kitchen or just chilling in the common areas. I’ve worked for a couple of days, great Wi-Fi and even if you leave your stuff unattended, nobody touches it.

    Very family-like, beyond friendly staff. Alot of the customers are residential which gives it a homely like aura. Everyone looks out for eachother. As far as hostels go, this is by far the best and safest. Great value for money, perfect for cheap reliable business trips.
