The plus side - it's really handy for anyone travelling by public transport, literally a 5 min walk from the bus and train station. It was clean, with a comfortable bed and good shower. Good, stable Wifi. Easy to find because of all the scaffolding outside. I didn't use the cooker or microwave so can't comment on them.The downside - first of all, I wasn't the only person to find the front door key really difficult. Some days the key opened the door fairly quickly, others I could be standing there several frustrating minutes trying to get in. When I first arrived there was an unpleasant and rather overpowering smell in the flat. It seemed to be a bit of damp overlaid with a powerful air freshener. The smell did improve when I switched the air freshener off and opened the windows. I tried to keep the windows open when I was in, but the sofa smelt a bit damp. I only turned the tv on for the news, but the signal is very intermittent, so I wouldn't recommend trying to watch any TV.

Excellent location. Living area spacious kitchen equipment great. The tele was difficult to watch as the signal kept going and out door area unusable due to building work. Overall a good apartment.

I stayed here at Easter and it was lovely. But came again for whitby regatta and thererwas an overwhelming smell of damp. The property was very cold and there was scaffolding outside which we weren't informed about. The cutlery draw had a lot of dirty spoons which couldn't of been checked by cleaning staff. Frying pan not good at all ,wouldn't use. Bedding felt damp also. I have sleep apnoea and my machine had to be disinfected when I got home because it smelt of damp. Television was a nightmare couldn't watch properly it just kept breaking up and freezing. I loved the location of the property because I'm disabled and it so close to the town. But unfortunately I would not stay here again.
