A lovely stay, convenient for the shops and our family

We had a great stay, the accommodation was clean, comfortable and convenient to the shops and close to where our family were also staying. We did have an issue with the hob on the first night but this was rectified the next day. Would happily stay there again.

Wonderful flat close to everything in York

Spent one night here with spouse and two kids. It was the perfect base for a quick visit to explore York. Loved the kitchen and bathroom, comfortable bedrooms, and really appreciated having a washer-dryer to do some loads of laundry (this was a stopover during a two week trip). It felt special to be in the shadow of Clifford’s Tower and we loved the easy ground floor access. Would definitely stay again. Thank you!

Lovely stay in the centre of York

From booking, the communication from Stays York was great. The apartment was very clean and beds super comfortable. It had spacious rooms and was well equipped for making use of the kitchen. The starter pack of coffee, tea, milk and biscuits was a nice touch. The location was ideal being located just minutes from the centre of York, with a wonderful view of Clifford’s Tower. However, the location on a busy road meant that noise could be heard through the night. Overall, we had a lovely stay in the apartment and would definitely stay here again when visiting York!

Lovely place, very comfortable 3 adults staying from Canada for one night Missed having a bit of counter-space in the bathroom around sink, just move a small table from living room into bathroom. Not a big deal just a suggestion for the owners

It should be noted that this is a very busy road, even though it looks quiet in the photos. It’s quite loud until late and starts up again really early. BUT.. the location is great. You’re walking to everything, shambles is a few minutes walk. Lots of shopping and restaraunts around. The apartment is awesome. It’s a great layout with a lot of separation. The laundry is a nice touch and was super helpful. Overall we loved it and stay again for sure!

A weekend at Peckitt St in York

We we blown away with how nice the apartment was when we arrived and how close it is to the Clifford Tower. The pictures on the advert were not superimposed - it really is that close! So a perfect location! The apartment itself was ample size for us (but we were just a couple) but the second bedroom would accommodate another couple. The kitchen and bathroom were of good quality and style fitting a luxury apartment. Also loved the fact we didn’t have to carry around keys (digital pad entry). We had a great nights sleep with the bed being really comfortable and the apartment was clean and offered everything we required. The only thing was that it didn’t include parking but there was a huge car park literally across the road, so wasn’t a problem. Would definitely recommend and stay again! Thank you.

Beautiful apartment if you don’t want to sleep.

The apartment is beautiful, it’s in a great location and is well equipped. But we had two issues that made our stay absolutely miserable. First the fire/carbon monoxide alarms in the bedrooms have a flashing light, that in a pitch black bedroom is like a strobe light. I am a good sleeper but it woke me up several time and made it hard to go back to sleep. My friend struggled significantly with the heat. It’s understandable that they don’t want you opening the windows onto the busy road but to have the heating set to 29* was painful as we didn’t realise until it was on in the middle of the night. My friend came and woke me up at 3am because she couldn’t figure out how to turn the heating off and it was stiflingly hot in the apartment. We set up the fans provided but it didn’t really help as it just moved the hot air around. After that the blinking light kept me from falling back to sleep, so we were all exhausted and struggled to enjoy the rest of our York trip.
