Lovely little spot

Great location, just outside the city. Close enough to easily walk into the centre but nice and quiet. Well equipped kitchen and bathroom. Lovely patio and garden area. Stays York provided excellent communication and customer service.

Nicely located & decorated

Apartment was modern and in a great location, however there was quite a lot of noise from the upstairs neighbour. It would be nice to have a curtain on the rear patio door & bedroom window for extra privacy, especially with the bedroom being on the front ground floor room.

Great few days

Had a lovely stay at The Nook, we didn’t arrive till late so did struggle in finding a space for parking. Unfortunately the garden doesn’t look like the photograph, over grown and weeds. Inside the space is lovely with super comfy bed, well equipped kitchen and lovely bathroom. I would highlight as many have on passed reviews about the automatic light in the bedroom entrance - bad for a light sleeper when others move around or use the bathroom.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Overall this place was great. It was within walking distance to everything. Restaurants, cafes, grocery stores are right there. The Nescafé machine didn’t work. They did supply a couple of packs of instant coffee. The photos are true to life. It’s very clean. The bed and pillows were comfy.
