We absolutely loved this property, the space and the location. So little to find wrong with it on that front. The only thing that could be improved upon is the cleanliness - and maintenance of small things like the cutlery draw. Although not massively dirty, we felt a bit more care and attention to deep cleaning of the carpets, ensuring crockery had been washed in the dishwasher and perhaps keeping on top of the mould build up in the bathrooms would have made this place perfect. All in all though, it was a beautiful and amazing place to stay and we hope on our next visit to York we are lucky enough to be able to stay here again..:availability allowing. Thank you Stay York for the best place we have found to stay in York.

A beautiful? charming and spacious apartment that combines a blend with York's history (the half-timber vaulted reception room) with all the mod cons (kitchen & bathrooms). Brilliant location in easy walking distance of all attractions, restaurants, et al.Two small cautions to the mobility impaired or tall: it is 31 stairsteps from the street to the living space; and slanted ceilings and beam into one side of the reception room is only 5'11" high.Wi-fi often doesn't reach master bedroom and mattress is hard. On other hand, bedrooms are in back and remain nice and quiet despite lively street scene.We loved our month there, and loved York.

Check in was very easy with clear instructions. The flat iself is a well done update of a very cool historical structure. The flats location is ideal. There is a grocery store just down the street and getting into York is a short walk across the bridge and you're there. Everything is within walking distance. The Minster, Museums, markets and the shambles, all close. We highly recommend the Micklegate flat.

The property was very convenient and the bedrooms were quiet because it was situated at the back of the apartment. However the apartment was run down and not maintained. The first entry in the guestbook was 2018, so I suppose it is an old apartment. It was clean for everyday use (bedroom, bathroom, kitchen etc)
However, upon closer inspection you can see it's run down. For example we discovered a container with mold in the kitchen, the common toilet door could not lock and the pillows are lumpy. The drying rack was also spoilt, but the owner replaced in within a few hours which we appreciated. So honestly it depends on your expectation of cleanliness. To other customers I'm sure this property is clean and suitable but just run down.
