York's hidden gem for drinkers!!!
My stay here was perfect for someone who was just having a night out with mates. I went to the football at 3 and checked in around 6pm seamlessly. I had an allocated bed in the dormitory and it was still vacant when I arrived in at 4am. Check out was 1030 and issueless. All in all a perfect place to stay right near the city centre for those who just need a bed for a few hours on a night out.
This place really is a hidden gem.
The En Suite was huge with toilet, bidet, shower and separate bath.
If I ever have a family event in York again I would consider getting a whole dorm if available for the family!

Lovely stay
Staff was very friendly and helpful. The kitchen is very spacious and they have everything I need.
I loved the common areas as it’s very cozy and comfortable.
Dorms are clean and neat. Met some new friends here and I would come back if I were to visit York again.
Highly recommended!
