Midway Guest House

The staff were really friendly and helpful. The room was spacious and clean. Breakfast was delicious, although the selection is somewhat overstated in the menu. At breakfast I was served by Pasquale who was very friendly, attentive and provided a nice big portion of full english breakfast.

The only complaint I have is that the shower wasn't great. The head was a little bit broken so that not all of the water came out the spout. Also, for me the location was great as it was very close to the Uni but for tourists it might be less ideal.

Cute, traditional English house! Breakfast and the hosts were amazing. Free parking was very convenient. We were also allowed to have a later check in so this is much appreciated

The location wasn’t so good as I hoped, especially at night. Around 10 pm we were waiting the bus for 20 mins and did not turn up so took a taxi and charged us £10 for 5 mins driving into the city, this is not up to the property though. During the day the buses were more frequent. But maybe during summers months I wouldn’t mind walking into the centre. Also the room was a bit small for the money we paid, but hey-ho, I guess we pay for the Christmas spirit as well 😃

The room was family room, clean , spacious and comfortable beds. Plenty of extra toiletries, tea and coffee supplies left out in several locations. The communication between the owner was great and he was very accommodating allowing for early check in . 20 min walk into town nice stroll. There's an alidi and Iceland 1min walk where you can also get bus .In the opposite direction is a bar and restaurant 5min walk away. Plenty of parking outside.

The only issue I had was breakfast When booking it stated they provided breakfast included in the cost of your stay. On entry there is a sign stating times of breakfast and what's available, this is also on the back of room door. Arrived down for breakfast at times stated to find door to dinning room was locked. Sitting was 8am to 8.45am and 9am to 9.45am . I was a little early for the 9am so waited until 9.10am no one came . I contacted the owner and he informed me Breakfast not available until the weekend. I was a little surprised as that is not what was stated in my booking not is it stated on website. There are no signs in the guest house stating Breakfast only served at weekend. We stayed Monday and Tuesday night

This is our 2nd time we have stayed here. And both times we have enjoyed it . You can have a lovely long walk to the city by the river which brings you to some Lovely bars and into the city centre .Or there is a bus service across the road from the guesthouse .. We found the staff very helpful and the breakfast .was lovely.. Hugo the dog is lovely and friendly if you get to meet him 😊.

Nothing really that we personally don't like about it . But other people may find it a bit far away as it is a long walk into the City centre and back . Like I say though there are plenty of buses and taxis.

Very comfortable room with tea making facilities, TV and a hairdryer. There were essentials like tea making products and toilet rolls kept on the landing, so you didn't have to ask every time you needed something. A 15/20 minute walk into town, but then I'm quite a fast walker. A Sainsburys local is near by and there is a bus stop right outside the property. The room was given a little spruce up when we were out every day, which was nice.

Bed was a little hard for my liking, but apart from that everything was good.

Fantastic location, just a 20 minute (flat) walk into the centre of York. Everything was spotlessly clean, with tea and coffees in the room. Aldi is just a 10 minute walk down the road for anything you might need. Breakfast was cooked to order and tasted fabulous, assortment of cereals, fruit, jams and juices also available. The host and his team were all very friendly and offered lots of local knowledge.

The decor is dated, however this hasn’t affected my scoring as I knew this before booking. It would definitely benefit from a lick of paint and new carpets throughout. Our room was in the loft and the stairs were very noisy, lots of creaky floorboards, you could hear everyone coming and going.

Breakfast was very good Location was good, just across the road from the bus stop into York and within walking distance of good pubs serving excellent food We liked that anything you needed extra, e.g. towels & toiletries and coffee and tea they were just on the landing, excellent idea

We got caught out on price due to the Snooker UK championship being on, hence lowish rating for price We live a quiet place and so a lot of road noise affected our sleep, probably have quieter room if you ask

The location was great. The lady on reception was warm and welcoming and the lovely man at breakfast was a delight! Our daughter appreciated the hot chocolate and we appreciated the soap. Very clean rooms which were inviting.

The road noise was annoying, especially because the weather was hot and we had to have ventilation through one small wIndow. We ended up taking the light bulbs out and using the fan, so an okay solution. Would suggest a free standing fan for the hottest days. Not really enough to stop you staying, but perhaps ask for a room away from the road.

Good location - only took 15-20 mins to walk to the city centre. There was also the option to walk along the river. Room was nice and quiet. Staff were friendly and very helpful. The house itself was lovely and cosy.

It was really hot in the room. We turned the radiator off, and opened the window but it was still stifling. Being the middle of winter though, it's hard to find a good balance to suit everyone across a big house.

The location of this hotel is excellent, with a bus stop across the road to the city centre. If you wish to walk there then it only takes about 15 minutes and the more distant attractions such as the railway museum are only a 40 minutes walk away. The room I chose was a special rate and was located in the attic. Despite this, I was very happy with it and could even see the sunrise in the morning (although not from the horizon). There was also plenty of choice for breakfast and the gentleman in the breakfast room was very welcoming and chatty. This hotel met all my needs for a trip.

There is nothing unsatisfactory about this hotel.
