Lovely property that was well furnished with the key appliances (dishwasher, clothes washer and dryer, etc). Comfortable beds for two adults and two children. Very close to city centre and we were able to walk to the major attractions and to/from the train station for arrival and departure. Recommended!

Brilliant Apartment, Thoughtful Hosts, Ideal Location in a Lovely City

The apartment is extremely well appointed and was thoughtfully provided with milk, eggs, butter etc. Its location within easy walking distance of York's many attractions could not be bettered. We would not hesitate to re-book if we had the chance to return to York and are most grateful to our hosts for a thoroughly enjoyable stay.

We hope that if you do return to York we are able to be your hosts again. Many thanks.

Great spot in York

We had a fantastic time in York at this accommodation. It has everything that you will need I could even do a bit of baking. Very comfortable and so close to the Centre of town. Fantastic view out the window to the river as well. Highly recommend this one. Debbie Heck

Long weekend in York

The apartment was immaculately clean, and had everything that you could want for a lovely holiday. We were met as promised by the very nice keyholder, and everything was clearly explained to us. The location is brilliant, only a few minutes walk from all the main attractions in the city, and we had a great view over the river. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen nicely set up. It was very convenient having a safe parking space for the car, which we didn't need at all during our stay!

Super flat

Very well presented flat with lots of nice touch's such as milk , butter and jam waiting for our first morning! Every imaginable amenity in the flat and very clean. Central location but unfortunately some street noise at night from a pub across the river. Ok if you keep the windows closed.

Best location

All was excellent . A nice touch was some basics left in the fridge and kitchen . A great welcome from Amanda . The location is 5 mins from the centre . The only negative was the noise late at night and early morning with trucks etc . If you’re a good sleeper there wouldn’t be a problem. Great view to the river from the lounge . Good communication with Elaine the owner .

Excellent Choice But ...

The location and secure off-street parking are big pluses for this property. Easy walking within the old city. The apartment is comfortable and well equipped. We did, however, have issues with hot water. The owner gave us a workaround which was partially successful. But showers were tepid at best for our last two days. Hopefully, this problem has been resolved.

Thank you for the review. We are sorry that the immersion heater in the bottom of the water tank failed the day before you checked out, fortunately the hot water cylinder also has an immersion heater that heats the top third of the cylinder (80 litres at 70 degrees) which should provide a reasonable quantity of hot water. As discussed we didn’t want to disturb you on the last full day of your stay having the electrician call to replace the immersion heater, so the new heater was installed as soon as you checked out on the second day. Hopefully if you return to York you will choose to stay with us again.

This is my husband and my second time to book a stay at Elaine’s flat in York. When our October travel plans came together and we knew we wanted to return to York for a visit again, I immediately booked with Elaine. Her place is clean, perfectly located to access York’s tourist sights, restaurants, fully stocked kitchen (equipment) and best of all her place has secure dedicated parking. When communicating with Elaine she responds very quickly and worked with me once we reached the UK communication wise (via text). I especially love the touch of the meet and greet with Amanda to show us around the flat and make sure we know how to enter/leave the flat/building. Amanda comes with a bit of food (milk, croissants and juice for the morning) which is so helpful especially for weary travelers flying from the west coast of the US. I can’t say enough nice comments about Elaine’s flat - we look forward to our next visit in York and of course staying at Elaine’s flat.

Perfect apartment, perfect location, perfect experience. We greatly enjoyed our stay in York not only because we loved the city and people but because each day we could return to this roomy, comfortable, lovely apartment with a perfect view of the Ouse River to relax and recharge for the next day. The location could not be better and everything we wanted to see was within a 5-10 minute walk. Highly recommend!

We were two senior couples and found this apartment perfect for seeing York. We never moved our car from the car park and were able to walk everywhere. The apartment had everything we needed and was the perfect base to explore York. The elevator for us was a real plus.

Good week

As a family of 4, we were wanting for nothing from the apartment. The beds were soft, the showers strong, WiFi reliable, and the space was comfy. If by some freak of nature we’d been snowed in, there were nice, thoughtful extras to have kept us occupied. The location was perfect to shops and restaurants, with gated off-street parking and no worries. If we return to York, we hope we can stay again.
