Great stay ...Good location with parking. Easy access. Clean rooms with everything you need. Comfy bed and spacious bathroom. Suggested improvements would be bigger fridge and a full length mirror. Mirror in bedroom was too high and bedroom wasn't very well lit.

York

This flat was comfortable and cosy. It came with a designated parking spot which was a special plus. The flat was only 10 minutes walk into the heart of York which made it very convenient for seniors sight seeing. If ever we returned to York we would definitely rebook.

Communication re passing any relevant information on to us seemed last minute which caused anxiety.

Propery was excellent, in a quiet location and within easy walking distance to the centre. Perfect for us. Clean, modernised and more than adequate. Great to have our own car parking spot. All was perfect for us.

City break

The apartment was immaculate the owner kept us fully informed and it was as expected very close to the city centre we walked every day into the town we chose this apartment because it had its own parking space and once parked we didn’t need to move it again this is a great location and would recommend it to all we are an older couple close to retirement and found plenty to do.

A very convenient location in York

The location is close by everyplace you’ll want to go in York. The apartment is spacious with all the amenities you’ll need for a comfortable stay. Take the steps at Monkgate for a nice walk along the Wall. For a fun way to see the city that’ll take you to places you wouldn’t otherwise visit, try Baja Bikes. Cecil gives an outstanding bicycle tour.

Perfect location, just a short walk to the old city walls, in a nice neighborhood. The flat was immaculate and it was obvious the owner went to great lengths to keep it that way and to make guests welcome. Great communication, comfortable bedroom and living room sofa-bed with separate doors for privacy. Nice sized bathroom with tub and shower. Fully equipped kitchen was smallish, but very functional.

Great Location

Just a short walk to the City Center with all the things we wanted to see and do. Very quiet flat with a complete kitchen should you want to cook meals and a short walk to a supermarket if you need anything to do so. It also is set up up for children so families with little ones will be pleased with it. Angela responded promptly regarding the one issue we had. We enjoyed our stay and recommend this to anyone wanting to visit York's city center.

Our time in York!

This unit in York, was conveniently located to sites like The Shambles, shopping and general site seeing, including the Roman Wall. Angela communicated very well helping us with check-in and the washer/dryer that we had trouble with. She was very proactive in having it looked at. Afterwords, it worked well. The bed was a bit soft, but overall the place was great!

Very clean unit. Just outside the city walls. Does have a parking space if needed. We walked everywhere and only took taxis to and from the rail station. Easy to find your way around. We found several grocery stores nearby. Would highly recommend.

Xmas markets

I picked this particular property due to location and the fact that it came with a parking space. The property was as described and in fact probably exceeded expectations. Everywhere was very well equipped and clean; it was very cold outside but the heating worked well; main bed and sofa bed were both very comfy and there is plenty of storage / hanging space for clothes. There was a small amount of noise from the road outside and people moving around in the flat above but it is a town-centre flat so this was to be expected and was certainly not intrusive. One suggestion - maybe fit a curtain or blinds to the kitchen door that could be used if someone is staying in the sofa bed in the lounge. All in all a great stay and we will probably be back next time we visit York.
