This fabulous newly renovated 2 bedroomed apartment is in an ideal location, just outside the city walls yet walking distance from York city centre and the train station. The flat is also a stone throw away from the famous âBishy Roadâ (Bishopthorp Road) which has plenty of pubs, restaurants and coffee shops. The flat is carpeted throughout, has a large open plan kitchen, lounge area, a lovely bathroom and two very comfortable bedrooms.
The space The flat is over two floors. On the first floor you have an open-plan kitchen/dining/lounge area, a bathroom with a shower/bath and bedroom 1 which has a double bed. On the second floor is bedroom 2 which has a king sized bed.
Guest access On booking you will get access to the entire flat.
Other things to note Please ensure all windows are closed upon leaving
We were only here for one night, but it was a nice place to stay with comfortable beds and lots of space. The entry is on the ground floor which leads immediately to stairs up to the main level. That has one bedroom, the bathroom, a well-equipped kitchen, and spacious living room. Another set of stairs leads up to the loft with a second bedroom. The location was convenient to accessing the city center, just outside the city walls (visible from the windows) and an easy ten minute walk to the train station.
The lack of communication with provider and check in process was poor and raised my anxiety. I paid in full weeks in advance and despite chasing the provider I was not given the details of how to access the property until ten minutes before expected time of arrival and I had to keep asking for this. (I really did believe I had been scammed, and felt sick waiting to hear from provider.) this may have tarnished my view of the accommodation, so bare that in mind if you read on; the flat needs a deep clean as there is bright green mould along the edge of the bath panel and windows need cleaning. No wardrobe, or chair/dressing table in main bedroom and in 2nd bedroom the wall mounted rail is coming off the wall so rendered useless and a mirror is propped up so hazardous getting around it. On the positive side the bed was comfortable and the bedding was quality. General feel of the accommodation is lovely and the tandem on the wall is quirky. The location is good and there are some local shops nearby as well as York centre a short walk away.
We loved this cute apartment. So close to walk to dinner or sights with views of the York walls. We would stay here again and were sad to go. Very comfortable.
Overall good place for two couples to stay.. weatherspoons 100 meters away so ideal for breakfast and first drinks âŠif I had to be fussy or picky..
Looks a little shabby from outside and entrance hall could maybe do with a refresh.. but not enough to put you off ..
Lovely, well kept property within easy walking distance of York city centre and also a lovely street with cafes and bars, which were great for delicious food and quiet evening drinks.
Could have done with having the check-in info sooner. Canât check-in until 3 but gives peace of mind knowing you know what the process is. However, the host was jock to reply when we messaged about this.
Parking is not great. The car park opposite has very tight spaces and is expensive, but the property is near the station and you donât need a car to get around York, so itâs easy enough to arrive by train.
Overall, I would recommend a stay at this property.
