Slept here for a few hours and was pleasantly surprised by the cleanliness and amazing service from Ismail and Kay.
All were very helpful and was offered an upgraded room and parking. Thanks! I was given two codes for the main and bedroom doors which was easy enough to use and access. There were no en-suite rooms left at the time but that was not a problem as my room had a sink, kettle and even a fridge with usual tea and coffee sachets as well as plenty of towels and small individual tubes of shower gels and etc.
I will return because Ismail was so helpful! Well done!

Great stay for a few hours in a clean and quiet room

We booked last minute and found the owners to be both helpful and accommodating.

DV is easy to find and is around 15-20 minutes walk from the train station (albeit ours was longer as we called in to a couple of watering holes en-route!).

Check-in was swift and we were offered room 9 which was spacious, clean and provided everything we needed for an overnight stay.

Check-out time is a reasonable 10:30am and has a simple key-drop box and we were on our way.

Would recommend to all as York is a fantastic city with lots to offer and quality accommodation like DV will see us visiting again soon.

Weekend visit 24-25 September 2022

Stayed for 1 night for a gig at the Barbican.  Stayed in room 7, a twin. Check in was easy and quick. The room was clean and warm, and the bed was comfy. This is a no frills, functional and well kept place within walking distance of the city centre.  I would definitely consider returning next time I come to York.

Barbican gig.

Great little place tucked in a quiet neighbour with easy access to local amenities and York City. Was perfect for what I needed it for and had everything I could possibly have wanted. It was clean, tidy, quiet, good value for money and comfy. Highly recommended if you are looking for a cheaper stay. 

Great little family run buisness. 

Myself and partner stayed here for one night and paid a very good price.What we had was a nice clean well maintained room that was more than adequate for our needs.A little bit out from the city centre( 20 mins walk) but a very good bus service runs regularly.

Good budget lodgings.

Was due to stay here but due to plumbing issues couldn't but they efficiently sorted me and my niece into thier sister hotel Diamonds Inn.
They called me while I was enroute to inform me of the change

Efficient

This may be the smallest hotel room I've ever had (estimated at 2.8m square, including loo, shower and washbasin) but the bedlinen and towels are clean and fresh and the single bed is comfy.  And unlike the irritating majority of accommodations, the room light is bright.
Parking is a b1tch though.

Cheap AND cheerful!

£20 per night per person, comfortable beds, friendly welcome. Self managed stay with keycard entry. No restrictions on time or bringing your own food back. Shared bathroom and toilet for our room which was on the top floor. Tea/coffee making facilities. All in all served our needs perfectly.

It is what it is

Difficult to objectively rate but I'll try.
Checking in was an experience as this building was not hosted. I received no notifications prior to arrival and I had to call to get codes to get in. The 'key' was located in the room.
If you didn't have a phone then try there was no way to get entry!
The room was okay. An oil column heater was provided as central heating didn't work.
Room was not serviced during the three day stay.
To He curtains were not blackout and a bright streetlight outside the room severely restricted sleep comfort.
Overall adequate but I wouldn't stay again.

Mixed Feelings

There are some bad reviews on here about this place but I think, having stayed 3 nights, they are a bit harsh. Yes the decor is old fashioned and a bit worn but staying in York is an expensive business and this is a good budget option. The room, linen and bathrooms were clean. The room was a little cosy and suffered from not having enough light or space to store things. There was plenty of tea and coffee, even if you had to put the tray on the floor as there wasn't a plug nearby. The staff we met were pleasant and friendly, we knew there was no breakfast and we knew you had to pay for parking. But again, the parking is a bargain compared with city centre prices. 

If you are looking to do York on a budget, then this is a good option, as long a its just somewhere to crash at the end of the day. It's an easy 20 minute walk into the city and served us just  fine.
