The Gallery at Ryedale House

The apartment is roomy and attractive. The appliances are all in great condition. The location, while not quite in the town centre, is very close.

We couldn't work out how to change the heating.

Nicely appointed. Clean. Good view to river and city. Close to centre of town, restaurants and bars. Very spacious. The fridge worked well and kept our drinks very cold- great in warm weather.

We were there in hot weather, unusual for June. When we arrived the apartment was 27 degrees inside. The windows face the sun for most of the day and there is no air conditioning, so it is hard to control the temperature. A fan was provided in the living room but it was loose on it's base, so it was a bit lopsided. It was hard to cool the bedrooms. We left the window open in the main bedroom but then the light woke us at 5am as the blind was attached to the door, so when the door was open, the light came in. A small detail- both showers leaked onto the floor, and a bath floor mat was only provided in one bathroom. A note for the letting agent- when we collected the keys, we had been up and travelling for 12 hours. The directions were fine (and the video very helpful) except that you told us to look for a lock box marked 403. There were two cupboards of lock boxes. We checked all 60ish boxes twice. We were tired and hot. We then started trying the given unlock code on boxes with no number on them. Only then did we reread the emails and see that although you had written 403 in the directions, the apartment name is The Gallery, and one of the boxes was called the Gallery, but with no number. I know this might seem small, but when you're tired, have been up since 4am and are hot and trying to follow instructions, this is just made it so much harder.

No window in the bedroom.

Location was excellent

This was a beautiful property , but with the current heatwave there was no way of cooling this property down. Living room very uncomfortable to sit in due to heat. Large Windows turned the lounge into a greenhouse
