Stableside at York Racecourse

The accommodation proved adequately satisfactory for my needs as I was travelling without my family. The room, although compact, had everything I needed. I did, however, have to search for the kettle, which I discovered in the wardrobe. I didn't find the toiletries that were advertised, but as I'd brought my own, this wasn't a major problem. I found the toilets and showers spotless, and the provision of a towel was welcomed, although I, again, had brought my own. The breakfast was superb, with plenty of variety, and set me up for the day. One gripe I did have was the sockets; one nearer the bed would have been ideal rather than making my way across the room to turn my alarm off. Another gripe, although not the hostel's fault, was other guests' inability to close doors with letting bang. (NOT hard to do if you push the handle down and slowly close the door from a short distance rather than letting it swing from the fully open position. All in all an enjoyable stay.

Staff have been lovely, Room was spotless on arrival and plenty of car parking space! Beds are really comfy and breakfast was great, lots of variety! Location is far enough from the city centre that's it quiet but also on a bus route so no issues getting into town and there's a pub restaurant on the street just opposite the entrance. However, don't forget your hairdryer! Our room was small, bathroom small, myself and 3 kids did feel a bit on top of each other and lived out of the cases as there wasn't enough room to hang everything up or anyway to put anything to be honest but we were only spending 2 nights so wasn't that big a problem.
