The hostel is amazing value...

Liked: This my third stay here. The rooms are always very clean and comfortable. I love the location, it is great to park up at the hostel and then walk into town along the river. The cafe bar is really nice too.
Disliked: Nothing.

Liked: Really clean. Friendly staff. Great location (green around, space to enjoy). Easy to find. Quiet overnight. Great to have access to a kitchen. Beautiful walk into York along the river (about 20 minutes). Good facilities. Good for families.
Disliked: Our bed area was really hot. Our bed was in a mezanine area, so up high, and we stayed during a heatwave. You couldn't open windows very far due to safety. I still thought our room was great. We won't get many heatwaves like that I imagine!!

Disliked: Cracked sink, only one pillow and tge bed was uncomfortable so we didn't sleep very well. The room was also very hot
