"Exceptional"

9.0

Plenty of hot water, all appliances as needed, condiments, oil , coffee/ tea available. Great to see the sea !

It was low ceiling - not a problem for me. Lots of stairs to climb. Perhaps details to be noted ? Lock was a bit sticky to open but maintenance were quick to respond.

"Very Good"

7.0

Location is excellent and ideal for exploring Whitby. Property is well equipped and cosy. Felt very safe and secure. Communication and instructions from the host were timely and clear. Lovely views towards the sea and abbey.

Unfortunately the kettle didn’t work which was a bit annoying. There are a lot of low sloping ceilings (probably should have clocked that to be fair given it is called The Loft) which made life slightly awkward. It is not possible to have a stand up shower as the bath with shower is in a low part.

"Good"

5.0

The loft is quite cute and in a good location.

Unfortunately, the loft wasn't very clean which took away from the experience for us. Everything looked like it could use a solid wipe and there was hair in the fridge.

"Fab place to stay"

8.0

The room is amazing.. yes there's parts where u have to bend down but ur in the roof.. The view of the castle is actully quite good and it came with many things .. like plates .cups.. all this made it very good and it was easy to make the apartment warm or cold with the heating Charlie the host was great at communicating though out our stay and was always in contact which was nice

The bathroom tower heater wasn't working and to get their their like lots and lots of steps...

"December 2025"

6.0

The location is perfect and close to the centre of Whitby. Comfy beds and couches. Lovely views from widows.

The property was unclean with dirty cups, glasses, plates, cutlery, counter tops and oven top. The surfaces had not been dusted and the floors had not been hoovered, we both have our own pets but having others dogs hair still on the carpet wasn’t pleasant. There was also a brown stain near the living room window, next to the TV. TV remote didn’t work properly and took a while to get the TV on, never mind find the right channels. Despite it being a lovely location, due to the uncleanliness we will not be staying here again even though we visit Whitby regularly.

"Perfect location"

8.0

The location is perfect. Close to the sea and shops

Parking in winter is not an issue as it’s free but in the summer months I can see it would be a nightmare , as parking doesn’t come with this apartment. The roof beams in the apartment are very low and your constantly banging your head on them, as you can only really stand upright in the kitchen dinette, hallway and part of the bedroom. The cleaning of the property was not up to standard ie glasses and mugs one the shelf’s where sat in rings of dust and stuck to the surface, the oven top was dirty, and inside the oven we found a tray with tinfoil with fat in from the previous guests. In the hallway the smoke alarm is hanging from the ceiling and turned off at fuse board, also the bathroom heated towel radiator didn’t work with left the bathroom really cold and towels couldn’t be dried. Perfect location but would not stay here again.

"Brilliant little apartment"

9.0

Beautiful views from the loft. Apartment was clean and tidy, brilliant location only a 5 min walk from the sea front but in a lovely quiet location.

Only downside was the roof comes down very low, which we were expecting but it falls in inconvenient places such as the toilet (my boyfriend couldn't stand over it), the sink ( I'm 5'7 and had to stoop over brushing my teeth) and the bath/shower. Just thought I would mention this to others but like I said, it didn't affect my experience and added extra cosiness. Brilliant all round.
