The apartment is as per the photos and its location is great, right outside the city walls so everything is in easy walking distance.
Furnishings& decor are attractive, clean & comfortable, a lovely style & feel. Being really picky just a few tiny tweaks and it would be totally perfect, a 2nd tea towel(!), brighter light bulbs in the beautiful chandelier & bedroom light. The free wi-fi was reliable and useful.
Parking is very close by, with daily car park passes provided (do run only to 8 a.m. so wake-up call needed on your final day) Next to the car park there is also a handy supermarket & cashpoint.
Being so close to the heart of York, eating out is easy, 100s of options - we liked the Gillygate pub and The Exhibition for their ales and food.
As well as being close to the city centre, it's also close to the ring road so access out to Castle Howard, North York Moors etc. is easy too - traffic is heavy at peak times, so an excuse to lie in and relax!
Our first visit to York, loads to see, do and enjoy, and we'd love to come back and would definitely want to stay in Apartment 1 again.

Really enjoyed our stay and found the apartment to be fitted out in quality fiitings and lots of extras. Very generously appointed. It has a Sainsbury Local right bon the doorstep and York Minster alomost a stone throw away. Very secure and safe location. Parking permits were organised (if you come by car). All in all, it would be hard to better in every area.

Arriving here after a week on a canal narrowboat was like entering heaven. It was a 10 minute walk from the train. The location is spot on perfect for walking around York. The flat is a very large, beautifully decorated one bedroom, bath,living room and kitchen. The owner left a few snacks for tea. There are two TVs and a washing machine.. The machine spins so well that the clothes dry on the rack quickly.
The building is very quiet. There are close stores and restaurants. We did not have a car so can't address parking. There was ok wifi available.
I would definitely return here..it feels like home.

the apartment is tastefully designed, and position just outside city walls about 4 minute walk from the Minsterand Stonegate. Ideally located for the city center and, if you have a car Sarah can provide you with parking permit just behind the flat.much appreciated after a long drive was a pint of milk and a couple of mince pies!

This apartment is super. Well appointed and clean. We loved that it was so close to all the attractions of York, including breakfast in the cafe downstairs! Would highly recommend it.
