“The Victorian architecture lends a quiet charm to this York guesthouse, located within walking distance of the city walls, even if it is a 20-minute walk to the station; inside, the rooms are tidy and come with tea and coffee. While parking comes at an extra charge and isn't always straightforward, the convenient self check-in makes arriving less stressful. Recommended for those who value a peaceful residential location.”
