I had a good stay at St. George's Guest House in York. The staff were exceptionally friendly, providing warm Yorkshire hospitality that truly made a difference. My room was clean and cozy, although it was a bit snug for my luggage. The location was perfect for walking to the city center and the racecourse. However, the shower was a bit noisy, and I encountered some issues with the TV channels. Overall, I would definitely return! 😊

The room was immaculate and cozy, but on the smaller side. I loved the mirror lighting in the shower room, though the TV didn't work well for some channels. The snug double room might be better for shorter stays without much luggage.
