Our Reviews

FABULOUS apartment in THE BEST position for exploring York. It was spotlessly clean with absolutely everything you could possibly want for your stay and so comfortable. We would love to have stayed longer and will certainly book here again for our next visit.

Thanks for the warm welcome. Apartment was perfect for a short break, and the kids loved everything.  Will definitely look to come back again!!!

A fantastic, spotless, centrally located apartment with free parking. All of York’s wonderful attractions a short walk away. David is a wonderful host. On time to greet us and communication before was prompt and concise. Highly recommend for any small group or family wishing to explore York.

A wonderful apartment in the perfect location. Thank you very much. We will be back.

David communicated well before we arrived and met us on the day, showing us everything we needed in the flat. We had a wonderful weekend, in spite of the snow and cold weather. The flat was warm and very comfortable. Thank you!

We loved staying here. There was plenty of space, it was beautiful and clean and the location was fantastic. Close to city centre and with a grocery shop right underneath. David was a lovely host; very friendly, helpful, quick to respond and there to welcome us. Thank you.

Warm welcome. Sparkling clean. Tops location. Such a wonderful place to stay. If you are visiting York this is a great place to stay.

An extremely well-located apartment which was cleaned to a high standard – nothing was left to chance. The apartment has everything you need and the host ensures there are lots of nice touches. We could not recommend this apartment or its considerate host enough!

Back again for Xmas and another wonderful family get together.  No 7 is fantastic.

Thank you for the very warm welcome, David. Your flat is extremely comfortable and so perfectly located for exploring York.  We had a fantastic time and I am already starting to miss this place as I pack up to leave.

David and his wife offer this gem in a great location WITH an elevator. The attention to detail in this delightful apartment is admirable as is the very warm welcome received from David in person. They also provide a comprehensive guide to the apartment, the City, and to the wider environs. We are very impressed… Read more “We were very impressed”

The city walls are literally across the road, and there’s a mini-Sainsburys and cash machine on the ground floor.

A lovely stay, great location and apartment.  Provided everything we could possibly want. Thank you.

Great location for easy walking to the Minster and all of York. Good restaurants nearby, and the apartment is lovely. It was wonderful to relax at the end of a long day of being a tourist. David was gracious and thoughtful and answered our many questions with good humor and patience.

This is a first class accommodation right in the centre of York. David has thought of everything in preparing the apartment for guests. This was our best experience of using Airbnb by some distance.

Aspire 7 was perfect for our break to York. Beautiful Apartment with everything a family would need and excellent location. Very nice to be met by David to show us around. Will be re booking next year.

This apartment is modern and very well appointed. It’s greatest feature is the close proximity to all sites and a local grocery store below. There was a very convenient car park at the rear of the apartment.

David’s place was top notch luxury. Tidy, full of amenities, and the view is amazing. Everything was in its place, we didn’t want for anything. The beds were comfy, the couch was stellar, the appliances, etc.. were just great. Location is perfect.

York est magnifique, Cathédrale de toute beauté.  Appartement super bien.

Really excellent location. Sparkling clean. Highly recommended! Plus, there is a supermarket right below so you can quickly grab any groceries you might need.

Fabulous, clean and well-appointed apartment in the most perfect location. David is a wonderful super organised host. Love the extra details, such as not just a hairdryer but straighteners and curling tongs too, not just a TV but a 3D one with a ton of films to watch etc.

Great attention to detail in making 7 Aspire a wonderful place to stay.  And thank you David for staying up so late to welcome us.  If we are ever in England again, 7 Aspire is where we’ll stay!
