10/10 Excellent
"Lovely, spacious studios in a really lovely quiet area of York- not too far to walk into the city. We enjoyed a croissant and coffee next to the river in the morning sun- really pleasant stay. Rooms were comfortable with lovely kitchen facilities- it was so nice to be able to have somewhere to prepare food. The staff were so helpful and friendly and the foyer area stocked basic foods for breakfast and snacks - lovely stay"
