Six of us stayed at the property. The location was perfect. 5 minutes walk to the shambles. Lots of York on the doorstep. Carpark was great. The apartment itself had everything we needed and was to a good standard. Would definitely recommend to anyone not wanting to use a car.

This is an amazing spot. My family of 5 had everything we needed. I love that it was so close to city center but easily accessible. There is a pub next door that plays music a little late so if you like to go to bed early this may not be the spot for you.
If we are ever in the area we will be back!

We loved this little apartment! Its location is excellent to walk to all the sights and restaurants of York. There was plenty of room for our family of 5. We loved its location next to the city wall- very pretty. I could see how it would be hot in the upstairs in the summer since it was a tad warm when visiting in March. We would absolutely stay again.

We had a great visit. Everything we needed was available. Fans in every room kept the rooms cool enough on a warm day. Communication and quick responses was very much appreciated when we had a couple of questions. As visitors from the states experiencing England for the first time, it was a great surprise that we could see the York City Wall and Ice House Building right from the balcony. Visitors should know that there is a popular pub right next door that can be clearly seen from the balcony but not inside the apartment. Noise was never an issue and the doors and windows were insulating that when shut, we couldn’t hear anything from outside. We stopped over at the pub for another good time. Overall, a great property and experience.
Very good location close to the centre of York and next to the city wall. All York sites easily walkable. Good kitchen appliances and utensils. Good size room and comfortable bed. The are no windows that open and I couldn’t find the AC controller.

I recommend checking the exact images of the actual room. We got a flat with no proper windows for a very high price. It’s adjacent to a pub that plays music until 1am. The road behind the bedroom has traffic until late. The flat was ok otherwise, new and clean.

Super hyggelig lejlighed lige op af bymuren i York
Det er svært at finde en bedre beliggenhed lige op af bymuren og med 5 minutters gang til Minster. Der er ennda terrasse udenfor.
Lejligheden var i fin stand og velforsynet med hvad man kunne få brug for.
Eneste minus var at vinduerne i soverummene nedeunder ikke kunne åbnes.
