A small collection, run properly.
YBC started with one apartment and a simple idea: a short stay should feel as considered as a hotel, without losing the bit that makes a rental better than one.
Started with one apartment we wished we could stay in.
YBC began after one too many stays that looked nothing like the listing: thin towels, a kitchen drawer with one fork, a check-in that never quite matched the instructions. We fitted out a single apartment the way we'd want to find it, and grew from there.
Five properties later, the standard hasn't moved. Every YBC listing is walked through in person before it goes live, and every enquiry is answered by someone who actually knows the building, not a shared inbox.
Three things we don't compromise on
These aren't marketing lines. They're the checklist every property is held to before it's listed.
We stay in every property ourselves
Before a listing goes live, someone from YBC sleeps there for a night. If it's not good enough for us, it's not good enough for a guest.
No stock photos, no wide lenses
What's on the page is the actual apartment, shot straight, on the day it was ready to list.
A person replies, not a script
Every enquiry goes to someone who knows the building and can actually answer the question you're asking.
"We're not trying to be the biggest. We're trying to be the one you'd actually recommend to a friend."
Tell us your dates. We'll take it from there.
Send us your dates and we'll confirm they're free, then send you a booking link. You deal with the people who run the properties, not a call centre.
