Absolutely brilliant stay in a wonderful apartment. Great location, short walk from main area, the apartment is very modern and comfortable and a great place to base yourself for the sights. Everthing you need and very cosy, but with plenty of space for 5 of us. Grratvto come home to after busy days in York. Thanks for having us!
