Dropping our son off at York Uni decided to make a weekend of it.
Nice place 5 minutes from city centre, 10 mins from Clifford Tower and Frederick Street Car Parks.
Bus stop virtually right outside the door and the park adjoining York Racecourse is over the road. Pubs/Restaurants are a fair walk away - the property itself was quirky. A re purposed Victorian House turned into flats - no. 7 was on the second floor up what I assume was the original staircase. The rooms were modern, clean, light and airy. The beds and bedding excellent. Long hallway and another set of stairs down to main living room (which was huge) and the main bedroom. Slight criticism, the main bedroom did feel a bit overly cluttered but again was clean, light and airy with a huge window and excellent curtains to keep out the light. Slept well. Kitchen has a stowaway table, but no stools/chairs - tried the ones from the living room but they were too low. A folding stool/chair or two maybe the answer. One thing we were not sure how the hot water boiler tap worked -did work it out with a bit of trial and error, but I think clearer instructions are needed for boiler tap novices. Overall nice place, quirky and well-appointed would and probably will stay again.
