Guest Reviews
- Allison Bailey 50 (8/5): -
- clifford gary (10/5): Homely - Homely
Nothing
- Anita (1/5): - There was no lift working the furniture was so old and uncomfortable i will not be using you again
- Janet (9/5): -
- James (7/5): Good location - Good location - close to everything Smell of smoke at entrance to property into the building
Basic facilities - shower needed a good clean or changing to an ordinary unit
- Judith (10/5): - The size of the accommodation was spacious and more than adequate for our needs Nothing I did not like other than I booked parking in advance but could not get my voucher until 4pm so still had to pay for additional parking ??
- Charles (10/5): - Everything Nothing
- Angela (1/5): - The only good thing was location, and thankfully, Shirley, the cleaner was able to help us get in eventually after trying many times. The whole experience. From entering the building, poor decor and ripped furniture, very mouldy showe unit. The shower is not fully fitted as parts broken and missing. Water far too hot scorching and no way of turning it down. The whole apartment was stuffy, and hot at temperature was set at 21 standard. The beds in the twin room were more like children's beds and very low to the ground and very very creaky each time you turned over. No stuffing in any of the pillows in each room and very poor quilts and bedding. Holes in the walls and dirty splash marks. The whole experience was worse than my student accommodation. Also, when we booked, it was advertised as having free WiFi. There was not, and there were no signs of it ever being there. When I called the contact number, I was told there had been issues and not sure if WiFi would ever come back. Absolutely ruined our stay in Whitby and will never recommend, and to be honest, I don't know how they can be on bookings.com and should be removed.
- Nerisa (9/5): -
- Louise (8/5): Banging bargain in Whitby centre, a budget accommodation but no complaints - Enormous flat just set back from the front. Quiet and with everything you would need for a short stay. When we walked in it was nice and warm, had a decent sized TV, lovely hot shower, moderately comfy beds. Also had nice touches like shower gels and complimentary Yorkshire tea, coffee and uht milk. The beds weren't the best but for one night it was adequate.
The entry system took a moment to figure out with how to make the key pad work (you had to put more than one finger on the keypad)
- Ben (8/5): - Great location in the centre of Whitby. Really great value for what it is. Double bed was comfy. Shower was great. Easy to access. Very clean and tidy. Apparently the single bed wasn't as comfy as my double. The bathroom door was broken so you couldn't fully close it or lock it.
- Amy (8/5): Great location, great apartment, would recommend , - We have stayed in a few Discovers and Starfish apartments and they have always been very good. 10am check out, 11 would be better without paying extra for that.
- Woodcock (10/5): - Everything it was perfect for a girlie weekend away
- Ryan (8/5): Great value flat near to town - The flat is well positioned near to the main area of whitby, just a short walk to town. It was excellently priced, especially for what you get. We found the flat to be very clean and tidy and had everything we needed The only down side was that I’m pretty sure that animals have been in the property, maybe dogs, and my daughter had terrible allergies. The flat is was clean enough though
- Jennifer (9/5): -
- phoebe (6/5): Not too bad for a few night stay - Na Mouldy shower room, ripped sofa cushions, dirty windows
- Janine (8/5): We used the accommodation as an overnight stay for a fishing trip. There was plenty of room. - It was very spacious Nothing
- Lister (3/5): - Location was good Mouldy, dirty bathrooms. Smell of urine in one of bedrooms. Dirty freezer compartment. Very uncomfortable beds. Stained bedding. Cobwebs & dusty.
- Anton (8/5): -
- Jones (6/5): we enjoyed our stay the apartment was suitable but not as pleasing as i expected. very clean. - The Location was perfect for all we wanted while in Whitby. close to town centre and station. Not enough tea towels, dish cloth was not available, loo roll not enough for three guests for 5 days. Appartment was very sparse , not very cosy, although all was very clean. the lighting is terrible, very dimly lit with very low power bulbs.
- Mark (8/5): -
- sylvia (9/5): - All aspects Light flashing in bed room
- Mark (7/5): - Excellent location Could have done with a frying pan. Also heater removed in twin bedroom.
- Mandy (7/5): - Location Creaking floorboards, wobbly table - unsafe so did not use. General maintenance and cleaning could be improved
- Jayne (7/5): Easily accessible and spacious - Ideal location and spacious Lack of little touches ie toilet roll holder, coasters, shower hose missing, unable to get a shower without getting hair wet as just overhead shower with no adjustment.
- Barbara (7/5): - Great little place, nice and warm No toaster in room , the shower seemed to stick the first night we all had luck warm showers.. was sent am email from host after the first night asked about toaster still waiting on response. Some better information on the front door would be great, we were lucky enough that a guy came along and should what do, I. Turn we did the same the next for other guest.
- Allan (8/5): Loved surrounding - Very good loved the accomadation The beds were not very comfortable sinking in middle
- clifford gary (10/5): - The room was very homely old but perfectly decorated and. Clean. Shower not hot though overall with staff help 10 out of 10 Shower not hot enough
- YOSHIKO (7/5): - 市内の中心地で便利。 ネットフリックスやユーチューブが見られたこと。 全体的に設備が古く、クローゼットのドアなどの建付けがわるい。 値段を考えれば仕方ないかも・・・。
ベッドの寝心地があまり良くない。
- Steph (10/5): - We loved the accommodation. It was excellent value for money. The location is fab. It isn't high luxury, but it was clean and comfortable and we would come back.
- Lena (1/5): Loud, dirty - not for the faint hearted. - Nothing. Police parked outside when we arrived because of a loud party in another room.
The party continued all night despite it advertised that stag and hen parties etc are not allowed. Very intimidating and did not feel safe.
Uncomfortable beds and dirty kitchen.
We have complained and attempted contact regarding the complaint for over a week with no luck. No means of contact other than a phone call which they send a complaint form they don’t reply to.
- Lorraine (10/5): - Space and price
- Alan (9/5): Great place to stay - Great location and apartment Nothing
- nicola (10/5): - Lovely accommodation with plenty of room and everything you need The beds were comfy but the frames could do with tightening up as they were creaking when moving
- Parashuram (10/5): -
- Debbie (4/5): Wasnt impressed - Location was decent Place was unclean.
Mould in bathroom bath panel dropping off. Some kind if camera or alarm hanging off in one off bedrooms. Beds very uncomfy. Pillows awful.
Travelled with mum who struggles and is disabled. The lift was permanantly out of order which wasnt ideal.
Front porch inside contained bags of rubbish. Bags of unwashed linen. (There for 2 days)
Wasnt impressed
- Michael (7/5): -
- Harrison (10/5): - Beds Nothing
- Amanda (8/5): Overall very good value for money close to amenities clean and spacious accommodation - Very good value for money clean and spacious 4 flights of stairs and lift permanently out of order
Bedroom lamps missing bulbs and without plugs
Plastic pillows made the covers slip off
- Deborah (6/5): - This is in a good location for on foot seeing Whitby. Whitby was such fun. Plenty for all to see and do. I would visit Whitby again. The apartment is huge. Comfortable clean beds. NB. There is no parking at your accommodation. You have to buy a permit £5 each day. If you stay for two days that will be £10. You will get an email telling you this after booking. You MUST pay permit before 24 of stay or you cannot buy it. A space is NOT guarateed as you are in a carpark or on a street (where spaces are marked.) We got parked OK. This is common for Whitby as the streets are so narrow.
The lift in this accommodation is permanently out of order. A poor lady was struggling the stairs with pram and child. Ours was 3 flights up. That was ok for us.
This is place very very basic when it comes to furnishings. Some tender love and care is needed...such as kitchen benching is worn. Lounge furniture is poor.
- Bill Kohi (8/5): - Great location. Warm . Large Parking was a little confusing.
Children running and jumping around on the floor above
- Paul (9/5): -
- Sharon (10/5): Great weekend comfy stay and great location - Size and facilities
- Lee (5/5): Good location no good for anyone with a disability as they are too tight to repair the lift - It was clean and the location was good. The disabled entrance had a sticker on it saying permanently out of order which is disgusting considering the stairs.
- Danielle (8/5): Great, would stay again. - Perfect location to walk through all of Whitby's attractions. Basic property but has all that we needed and is great value for money. Hot water was great when on but a bit on and off in kitchen and bathroom. Great shower but complicated to use.
- Marijke (6/5): Whitby is een leuke plaats om een dagje te vertoeven - Ruim appartement, goede locatie , lage prijs Er was niks van instructies of uitleg te vinden, geen wifi code te bespeuren, en onmogelijk contact te maken met de host, zowel per bericht als telefonisch onbereikbaar.
Er was amper kookgerei in de keuken.
De borden, kommen en bestek waren vuil, tafel plakte. De temperatuur in appartement was niet te regelen (veel te warm) en ook in de douche kan je de temperatuur niet aanpasssen (ook veel te warm)
- Andy (8/5): Very nice - It was nice Nothing
- David (9/5): Great location and a great place to have a relaxing break - Location Water in kitchen didn’t get hot for washing up
- Chris (4/5): Not again - Location. Spacious Cleanliness not up to standards. Dust , cobwebs and even sand left behind for us when we arrived. General condition of the apartment was poor
- Carol (6/5): - It was close to all amenities The small beds were very uncomfortable they are no good should invest in new ones they creaked every time you moved in them didn't sleep well at all also there wasn't enough utensils in the kitchen there is a leak in toilet when you flush the chain
- Amy (10/5): -
- Karla (10/5): Perfect location. Spacious. Clean and tidy. Would definitely recommend. - Perfect location. Spacious. Clean and tidy. Would definitely recommend.
- Jessica (7/5): Very basic but clean and tidy - We basically used the apartment as somewhere to sleep as we were out for most of the days we were in Whitby. The apartment was clean and tidy but it had mold in the shower. Barely any water came out of the shower head and it was either too hot or too cold. It was lovely and warm to come into though which was nice. The beds were rock hard. However the location was great! The apartment is 500 yards from the centre where all the shops are which is really handy. The entire apartment could do with an update. The bathroom could definitely do with some work on it. I also think more details of how to get into the apartment is needed as it isn't clear what needs doing before you can enter the code into the digital lock.
- Dean (10/5): Great size accommodation - Great location and the size of the accommodation was brilliant
- Emma (8/5): - Really big apartments, very good value for money, little sceptical after ready reviews but were better than expected, could of maybe been a little cleaner but sheets were nice and white, loads of space, didn't use them as we were always out but good kitchen if you wanted to make food. Even though location was great for us, it is up a steep bank so wouldn't be good if you had mobility issues and instructions to get in could of been a little clearer especially how to get the pass lock to work, a man walking passed seen us struggling and told us what to do.
- Stacey (7/5): -
- Kariana (8/5): Overall great stay, superb location and good value for money - Location, size, quiet, amenities, value for money. Slight musty smell, pillows
- Claire (8/5): - Clean
Tidy
Close to shops Creaky floor
Lots of banging from the apartment above
Bathroom door won't close as handle broken
- Higginson (5/5): - Attractive, clean central location Poorly equipped kitchen and tv didn't work
- Dianne (9/5): - We liked having the kitchen and lounge area The shower was ok but the water didn't run away easily and the temperature gauge didn't work so was only Lukewarm.
- Rachael (10/5): Would recommend - Good side bedrooms and very clean, fresh bedding, central Mattress were a little springy, but for the price you can’t complain
- Andrew (10/5): -
- Wright (8/5): - Very comfortable and good location. Everything was ok this time.
- Joanne (10/5): Enjoyable - Very clean and spacious great location Clean , central and great value for money
- Annie (7/5): Good value for money, clean and great location. - Great location nice and spacious great kitchen area clean, Good value for money. The lift wasn’t working and I was travelling with a disabled man. The toilet wasn’t fixed to the floor and a bit dodgy for him to get on and off and the mattress was a bit dippy in the middle. But that is being fussy. Overall we enjoyed our stay and my kids loved the place.
- Amy (6/5): Needs some TLC but overall a good sized apartment In a good location - Decent size, in good location Toilet loose
Tap loose
Cold tap in kitchen runs hot
Shower sealant mouldy
Needs a bigger fridge
- Stephen (4/5): -
- Qendy (8/5): Very enjoyable. - Lovely accommodation. Lovely location. Booking was easy. Kept informed at all times. Pet friendly. The lift working would have been nice as we were top floor and stairs were a chore with luggage. There was an incident the 2nd night where we couldnt get in the property and the police let us back in but no fault of the owner.
- Daud (7/5): - Great price and great location. Amazing for the money. Roomy and two bedrooms too if you need them. The temperature of the apartment made sleeping uncomfortable and the mattress wasn't as comfortable as I would have liked. There are these green lights flashing everywhere as well. The only way I could get to sleep was to open the window.
- Parkes (10/5): - This is my favourite place to stay in whitby Nothing
- Graham (6/5): We had a great time and hope you find the above helpful and not too critical - Location size it was perfect for our family Lack of kitchen essentials
There were 6 of us and we had to share 3 spoons it just needs some more basic utensils and cutlery for a property that is 8 berth there was a lack of large cooking pans and serving bowls
- armstrong (10/5): - Rooms were massive very clean beds very comfortable Room nmbr 5 was a long way up after retuning from the town
- Jessica (7/5): Great central location. Basic but good accommodation. - Single beds were uncomfortable
- Danielle (10/5): -
- Danielle (10/5): Great accommodation - Good location, 2 minute walk into town, good value for money, would definitely stay again There wasn't any issues
- Kim (3/5): Lovely clean room, but things need attention - Location was great and it as clean There were no towels and after complaining the towels still didn’t arrive the next day went out on the night and the towels were by the door managed to take a shower the next day and the shower was tepid and flooded the bathroom floor. There was also no toaster in the apartment. The lift was permanently out of order.
- Michelle (7/5): It was ok but wouldn’t rebook - Location was good It wasn’t very clean especially the bathroom and lounge
Beds creaked with every movement so didn’t sleep well
- Sarah (9/5): Lovely place to stay and great location - Perfect location and plenty of room We couldn’t get the TV on but not a big issue
- Elizabeth (6/5): Great location. The flat needs more TLC which wouldn’t cost much - Instructions to use key pad were very poor. We rang a number and the lady told us the wrong information. In the end we read keypad instructions on another property. The shower didn’t work well. The water was too cold. It was difficult at times to get warm water. Probably maybe because others in the flats were using hot water too. The bathroom door is wouldnt shut - never mind lock!
