“I think the riverside setting is a distinct advantage, placing guests steps from the train station and a short walk from York's attractions. I noted the adult-only atmosphere and attention to detail, like complimentary refreshments, seem designed for a relaxing experience. In my opinion, its blend of convenience and thoughtful touches makes it a standout choice.”
