Great location

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Alma Terrace. It was nice to retreat to a quiet residential area at the end of the day. A lovely walk along the river to get to the city centre and attractions. The unit had all that we need for a comfortable and relaxing stay. Service and communication with Stays York was top notch. They were always quick to respond to any questions we had.

Great apartment with parking. Easy access to York along path by the river.

Apartment in nice quiet area of York. A shame you have to collect keys from Stays York office. But there is free parking in supermarkets which were about 20mins walk.

It is a beautiful appartement in a great location with parking. It was clean, very comfortable and practical. It is in a quiet place, but York Walls are less than 15 min walk along the river. There is Sainsbury's local and a pharmacy just couple minutes away on the main road. When we come to York we would love to stay here again.

needs a key pad

Just one issue. Had to go to the office to collect the key. Driving into a city we didn't know with so many roadworks and closures was horrendous. Took ages to find the office (yes we had sat nav) then struggled to park. Very stressful and time consuming.

Secure parking, great location, wasn't expecting to collect keys from stays office, which was the other side of town - not great in rush hour traffic so they ended up having to bring it to us as we were so late. apartment was lovely - nice decor, plenty of space for 2 and everything provided that we needed. Couple of bits that could improve- coat hook was falling off - I screwed that back in. We found half eaten cake in a take out box in fridge and one cup that needed a wash - all easily fixed though. Balcony photo online is misleading - you look out over car park. river walks at bottom of road were excellent, and there were some great local cafes along the road for breakfast.

First stay in Alma Terrace

A lovely and well appointed apartment, just off the riverside walk into York. It’s well decorated and the armchair, sofa and bed were comfortable. Off street parking was a bonus so close to the city centre. It took around half an hour to walk to the Minster and if you go in the other direction it’s an easy stroll across the Millenium Bridge to Rowntree Park and Bishopthorpe Road. Alma terrace is a pretty street, just off a main road, but the location at the far end of the cul de sac means that it was really quiet. Handy for a number of coffee shops and a Sainsbury’s local if you don’t want to venture too far. I’d definitely be very happy to stay again. Only slight downside was that we arrived / departed on a Sunday and as the keys needed to be collected from the Stays York office, this involved a bit of pre-planning and a trip into central York before we could get settled. When I’ve booked other Stays York properties there has been a key safe or door code to get in, which makes life a bit easier after a long drive.

Nice apartment near the riverside

A nice comfortable apartment with parking. Convenient position for York centre, nice stroll into town along the riverside. Bathroom could do with a bit of TLC, shower sealant grubby, toilet could do with a bit of bleach and sink needs unblocking, but apart from that all nice and clean with everything you need. You have to collect, and return, the key at the Stays York office in town. This is very inconvenient as it's on the opposite side of York and nowhere to park nearby. We had to get a park and ride into York to collect the key then go back to move our car to the property. Spent an hour on the last day walking into York to return the key. This was a waste of time really, good job we have no mobility issues. We particularly booked this accommodation because it looked easy to access from the main A road without driving around York. Would be much easier if it had a key safe.
