A late change of plans meant i needed a last minute room in york on a bank holiday Sunday. This was cheap and in reasonable walking distance to rhe centre, about 20 mins brisk walk. I had low expectations however was pleasantly surprised, room small but clean with a minu fridge, complimentary tea/coffee making facilities, complimentary bottle of water and even had a hairdryer in the room. For the price paid excellent value for a single night.
The worst property to be there
They have beds which have wheels so its very much uncomfortable to sleep
Broken beds given
Worst place to stay
Oy hand shower is there but that too does not work properly
No staffs after 6-8pm
You wnt receive help when needed
Most of the furnitures are broken
The Emerald Residence is a good option for a slightly cheaper stay in York, as it's a bus ride from the centre. Buses are regular (Route 7 to the Park & Ride or route 415 to Selby depart from different points in the city centre - route 7 is the one to use from the railway station, but there are no buses early on Sunday morning).
My room was clean and spacious, and did not face the main road so there was no traffic noise. Initial entry requires two codes - one for the front door and one for the bedroom; these were given by phone, so if you don't have a UK mobile phone (or roaming) this could be a slight problem. Once inside there's a keycard to use for access so you don't need to remember the codes,
One thing to note: alcohol is strictly forbidden to be consumed on the premises.
The area is generally quiet; there's a small Coop store about 5 minutes' walk away that has long opening hours.
The pictures that are used for single rooms at Emerald House don't do them justice. The room I had contained a mini-fridge, kettle, hairdryer, sink and enough encroutements for both cleaning and drinking and a small TV on an extendable arm, allowing for some background noise whilst chilling.
Location wise I needed something close to both the city centre and also the university and this met both needs.
There are bus stops on either side of the road quite nearby and these are great to get into town or the out of town shopping centre.
The room was quiet (although some other guests tried their best to change that on the Saturday night) and I managed to sleep well both nights I stayed.
The room was larger than shown in the pictures and even though it was road facing it nice and quiet.
Dining wise there aren't any takeways/restaraunts in the immediate vicinity, but the city centre is a short bus ride away and I took that approach and enjoyed several relaxing walks back from the city centre, back to Emerald house.
The host who met me was lovely and helpful, as was the phone support I got before arriving and during my stay.
I would stay there again for sure.

A bit out of the way, we dropped lucky with someone being onsite to let us in. Bit of a hike to get food and drink
Well priced handy stopover for York city centre with free parking. November time of year. The toom was a bit on the cold side but an electric heater was included to help.
Ensuite, everything worked. Remote check -in was a breeze.
The property is well presented with good parking. The room was spacious, clean and had good amenities. The property is about a mile from the city centre . There is a regular bus service into the city which has stops near to guest house.
