A perfect stay in central York.
Pros:

The property was perfectly situated, close to the station and the city centre, but in a quiet and private setting. It was well equipped and, although we only stayed for one night, we could happily have spent much longer here. We stayed during the heatwave and the property was fantastically cool.
We had an issue with connecting to the WiFi, but the very helpful receptionist had sorted things so that on our return to the property later, it connected immediately as we arrived. Thank you!

Cons:

Nothing.

Cons:

Small dining table, could have been bigger and similar style. living room table looking tired. Not easy to find first time around but would definitely return. No view at all. Noise from upstairs.

Pros:

Lovely place and location was great

Cons:

There was unnecessary stress caused by staff.
Even though we had booked a dog friendly room, after checking in online we had an email sent to us saying that "we were still booked in but our pets would not be allowed to stay"
We had to contact booking.com who contacted them, then they reallocate us dog friendly rooms.
They should have done this automatically rather than causing unnecessary stress.
Maybe hey were hoping we would cancel and they could resell the room we had paid for, after all we paid in full and it was none refundable on cancellation.

Excellent for amenities, location and comfort
Pros:

The place was excellent, clean and a very central location for what we needed with all the facilities.

Cons:

My son and his partner did complain to me that the mattress in their room had a lump in the middle of it and they were both pushed to the edges of the bed and it was uncomfortable. He compared my room which was excellent with the en-suite in. We were in apartment 2 ... maybe this could be looked into.

Excellent rooms particularly for a longer stay, note expensive parking, early check-in charge
Pros:

Spacious room/apartment. I did not use the facilities/kitchen but ideal for a longer stay//it had everything you would need. Very good air conditioning throughout, could not fault the room.

Cons:

Extra charge for early check-in. £20 to check in up to 1 hour early...never have I encountered this after travelling the world for 40 years..if the room is ready what is the harm. Yes extended late check out charges make sense.

Parking is £40/day at the recommended NCP car park which is very convenient. So not a great place if you have a car and want to stay 2-3 days. Even the further car park is £25.

Didn't need to but inability to leave luggage is a negative over the norm.
