Guests say
Bankside in Whitby is a well-received holiday rental, praised for its modern decoration, cleanliness, and convenient location with a scenic river view. Guests appreciate the comfortable beds, quiet environment, and the added benefit of parking. While some minor maintenance issues and comfort concerns with sofas are noted, the overall experience is positive, with many guests expressing a desire to return.
The property is consistently described as clean and well-maintained, with multiple reviews highlighting its spotlessness. The high level of cleanliness contributes significantly to the positive guest experiences.
The location is highly regarded for its proximity to Whitby town centre, ease of access, and the peaceful setting by the river. The convenience of the location is a recurring compliment among guests.
Comfort is generally praised, especially the comfy beds and quiet spot. However, some guests mention issues with low and uncomfortable sofas, and one review notes a mattress needing replacement, slightly lowering the score.
Facilities are well-received with essential amenities like washer/dryer and dishwasher. However, there are several mentions of maintenance issues such as problems with the cooker, washer/dryer, and a lack of shower shelf, which suggests room for improvement.
Guests have mentioned a welcome pack, which indicates thoughtfulness on the part of the owner. However, as such gestures may vary and are not guaranteed for every stay, they should be considered a delightful bonus rather than an expectation.

Lovely apartment with all the equipment and facilities you need for a stay. The bathroom was well decorated , and had a modern shower and plenty of storage for toiletries etc. Modern decoration throughout, and comfy beds. We would certainly go back again. The only reason for 4 stars instead of five was that guests have no control over the heating - you have to ring the owner each time you want it turning up or down. Also, when we arrived, the cleaner had sprayed air freshener or some strong floral product into the hall carpet and on the bedding. As my partner is asthmatic this brought on an asthma attack and we had to get different bedding before we could go to bed. The final downtick was that two toilet rolls were provided for 3 guests...but the lack of loo rolls seems to be a common theme in all accomodation these days and we brought additional ones with us.

Fabulous apartment , we’ve stayed in many at Whitehall landing and this is the best, however mattress could do with replacing as it was like sleeping on a trampoline !
