The Crescent Guest House

The price is affordable, the environment is nice, it's close to the city center, and the breakfast is good. However, there is no elevator, so guests have to carry their luggage upstairs themselves.

The service is good, and the owner is very supportive, but the heater is not working and the shower doesn't really have hot water.

We found The Cresent to be a little tired. But then we found out that it had changed owners 6 day’s prior. So yes it is a little tired, but he was very helpful and informative. The rooms are what you would expect at this price point. They are tired and dated, but warm and we slept well. The breakfast was a let down but again for the price what do you expect.

Good location close to city walls , 15min walking distance from train station. Good English breakfast included in the room price. Room decent not fancy, perhaps a small renovation could be useful. Our room was at 3rd floor without lift so maybe is difficult for those with lot of baggages. The shower was fine with a lot of pressure despite being on the upper floor. It wasn’t possible to leave luggages after check out due to serious personal problem of the owner but in general he was very friendly willing to assist as was the one of the two ladies (dark hair) responsible for breakfast, always polite.

Hotels are expensive in York during weekends. The Crescent is an economic one but still not cheap. The location is great and is just 10 minutes walk from the York Minster. The room is very small and the furniture is very worn out yet the cleanliness is okay. The breakfast is good.

The owners are very attentive and quick to answer our inquiries. The room is clean and very comfortable to stay.
