I had such an amazing time in my first year at the Coalyard that I decided to rebook for a second year and I must say, It was just as good the second time around. Hygiene and cleanliness levels were of a high standard, staff were welcoming and friendly and the social areas were great. Overall a great experience and would most certainly recommend.
Huge thank you for the 5 star review and positive words! We really appreciate this and hope you enjoy the remainder of your stay. Best regards, Paul & Colin The Accommodation Team

Location is spot on, 10 minute walk to uni and a 5 minute walk into town. Sight manager and care taker are top class, both easy to talk to and get stuff done quickly when you need any help with anything.

This is hands down the nicest university accommodation in York , the value for money and distance to local amenities cannot be beaten. The staff are always at hand to help , no matter what the issue.

Has a good time, met a lot of different people. I'd like to note that property management is indeed excellent and the manager is extremely friendly. The kitchen and bathroom appliances are tip-top, everything is fresh and refurbished.
Thank you very much for taking the time to leave a review and your kind words! It is much appreciated, along with your suggestion. It's a shame we couldn't score a little higher with our socials however we are a small site with limited social space and our events have been impacted this year by Covid, we are however hoping to have a number of fun events and competitions between now and the end of the year as government guidelines relax so do get involved with that! Also with our cleaning we do clean all landlord areas weekly ensuring site is tip top condition and also offer a complementary 2 hour kitchen/communal clean periodically to aid you and your flat mates out throughout the year! We hope you enjoy the remainder of your stay with us. Best regards, Paul & Charlie The Accommodation Team

Great accommodation for a first year student. Friendly staff, great location. :)
Thank you very much for the review! We are glad you have enjoyed your stay with us. As staff we try to provide any support we can just make sure you feel at home. With the location, we would have to agree, it doesn't get much better being only 9 minutes away from YSJ! It's a shame Covid has impacted the social expereience this year however health and safety is a priority and once restrictions are lifted, we are sure to set up some great events!
