“Here's a guesthouse where the hosts are genuinely invested in your stay, offering both practical perks like secure parking and a personal touch with local recommendations; the home-cooked breakfast is a highlight, especially the cheesy eggs. It's an easy walk along the river into the city centre, or a quick bus ride from just across the street, making it a well-placed base. A solid choice in York.”
