Fabulous location in the centre of York - everything is walking distance with a host of dining choices on your doorstep. The accommodation is great, a lovely combination of olde worlde and modern. We were there on a cold weekend and the place was toasty warm. Great showers with plenty of hot water. It says there's a single bed, but it's actually a small double and the room is a decent size too.
