The property was fantastic; clean, sleek, comfortable and with all the facilities that we could’ve asked for (the fireplace display was a much-loved bonus).
The location was perfect and made it simple for us to leave 10 minutes prior to reservations or bookings along the pier, and we could still make them in time.
There was quite a lot of random rubbish and debris in the spaces between the apartment building and the building adjacent, but the inside of the apartment made up for the way parts of it looked from the outside patio.

The apartment looked so inviting on arrival. The heating was on and the lamps were on giving a really cosy appearance. As we visited during the xmas break there was a Christmas tree lit up and other tastful decorations. A real home from home vibe.

Everything it was beautiful. It was so clean, everything you needed was where. Towels and complimentary toiletries right down too a lovely chilled bottle of wine waiting in the fridge for you.
Absolutely nothing. Except just one little thing it was raining and the steps up too the apartment were very steep but they were covered in a green moss so they were very slightly slippery. They could do with a pressure washer on them just too remove the moss for safety reasons only.,also if you are not aware of the step down before the doors going into the apartment you may stumble.some sort of warning put in place would help.

Great location yet quiet. We had fine weather so the terrace was a bonus. The bottle of white wine in the fridge was most welcome. Spotlessly clean. Excellent fit and finish. Quality fixtures.
Nothing. For a short term stay it's perfect.

Lovely clean comfortable flat,great location.
However it was all down hill from there.
Got a message 8.30pm first night saying a builder was fitting a kitchen in upstairs flat nxt 2 days,didn't inform us the builder was staying in the flat,he played music all night long,we got to sleep at about 4.15am and woken up at 7.45am with more loud music,we were shattered and could'nt get an hour in afternoon for drilling and hammering all day,our stay was totally ruined,if we had been informed about builders we would never have booked it,and it should never have been let knowing work was being carried out,profit before people company and i will never book with them again,there's atleast another four reviews ive found with same complaint,and i did'nt appreciate getting bombarded with emails and text messages,28 at last count.

The property was close to the bus station, train station and easy walking distance to the town. The outside area was useful and the shower facilities excellent. The property was very tastefully decorated.
There were two entrances to the property, one of which was not in use. This proved to be rather confusing but with the help of the owner we managed to find the key eventually.

Accomodation and facilities were really good as was the location
This is advertised as a ground floor apartment but was accessed by several steps and no hand rails which for disabled people like ourselves proved incredibly difficult to access and egress
There was building work going on in the apartment above so we were woken up at 8am by hammer drills and electric saws and knocking nails in which is no restful vacation , spent the majority of our time out so as to avoid the noise, having since read previous comments from April this work seems to be ongoing
The rubbish from the building work is stored beside the apartment and this also included a dead decaying seagull
The accommodation itself is worth the money but everything else detracts from it dramatically and the constant bombardment of messages from host and stay is totally over the top
If you have any form of disability problems this is not for you !!!!

Very clean and tidy loved the toiletries and the shower was amazing. Good quality cutlery and tea towels and towels
We hated the talking television and thought there should have been more instructions for all the electrical appliances. Even when we e mailed for help with the heating the response was what was already in the details we had and couldn't understand also there was no tumble dryer which was listed and the outside lights did not work should have a light near the steps. Needs a full length mirror

The apartment was gorgeous, stylish and cozy. Me and my lass loved it the moment we got in and saw the design. It had such a beautiful lounge, kitchen, bathroom and bedroom, it was perfect for two people and we will be returning again for sure!
The extractor fan in the kitchen wasn't working so the fire alarm kept going off when we cooked which made us worry if we were annoying the neighbours. The neighbors were kind of loud and argued also I'm pretty sure there was construction going on in another apartment because we heard hammers and saws. Throughout the day that wasn't really pleasant. The boiler pressure kept dropping and luckily I was sent a YouTube tutorial by one of the admins to sort it out but it was a little inconvenient in the morning.

The location is great, situated behind the bus station, so close to all amenities. The apartment was superb,ultra modern cosy and everything you needed. The owner Tim was great ,very friendly and helpful.
Parking is a problem, but that is the only downside, plenty of parking close by.

Located in centre of Whitby. The property was comfortable, clean and well appointed
The outside light could of stayed on longer so that the steep steps to the pavement were illuminated

While the immediate location of the apartment isn't the prettiest in the alley where it's based, it's a great location for being close to everything you could want to be within Whitby. On arrival we were greeted with the sparkling fairy lights on the open outside area, really nice touch makes it look very classy even from the outside. Upon entering the apartment you see just how beautiful the property is, it's a very modern looking, sleek design, the electric fire place with lighting colours just makes it that extra bit special looking. It really is a great apartment to stay in & really looks the part too. Plenty enough space for a couple spending a night or a few, all the facilities you'd need too. Really enjoyed our stay & would definitely stay again.
We did find a quite a few short dark hairs in the bed when we first got in, we assumed the owner or cleaners potentially had a dog? Was more of issue for my partner than myself. Not enough of an issue for me to downvote my overall rating of the apartment.
As mentioned above, the immediate area of the apartment isn't the best representation of Whitby & the area can be a little loud but not enough to disrupt your stay. That being said, the walls do appear to be quite thin & we could hear the neighbours shouting quite clearly, but again, hardly any fault of the property or host & stay.
Despite anything mentioned, I would absolutely recommend anyone to stay here if you're looking for somewhere in Whitby, & as already mentioned, I would happily stay again.

Everything was brilliant the appartment was very nice and cosy very modern the bed was comfy the shower was nice and it was so close to the town centre would definitely stay again .
Nothing I didn't like . But I would say there was only one mirror in the bathroom it would of been nice if there was one in the bedroom as well .

The accommodation was as advertised, lovely, comfortable and central. I had a big problem with the property management company. It is a shame you cannot rate this separately on booking.com and it is impossible to know the name of the management company of the property prior to booking. I have written up the problems on trust pilot under the name of the management company. I have scored a 9 on here but that is for the property only.
4.5
I loved everything about the property. it was a home from home very clean, great finish to the property, very tastefully decorated. The shower was large and powerful enough for me, the bed was super comfy we had a great nights sleep. The location was spot on, it was only a 2 minute walk into town. I would highly recommend staying here if you’re visiting Whitby, you definitely get what you part for with this property. I’ll be booking this place for future visits.
only a couple of minor whinges, but nothing would change my score from a 10. If you have mobility issues the steps to the property are quite steep. The only mirror was in the bathroom, property would benefit from one in the bedroom. Finally no hair dryer, luckily I’d packed mine, so no wet hair for me 😅
4.5
The fireplace and general design of the place was excellent. It felt like a cozy get-away. It was located very close to the centre of town and food locations.
The dog next door barking on and off but not when trying to sleep. Also the top shower setting didn’t work. Other than that it was perfect.
4.5
The location was good as in the distance to the main street. The only down side was the parking. We got blocked in a couple of times during our stay, one of the times being because of something that was taking place at the theatre/bingo place at the side of the property. The lady was quite rude and very unhelpful when we told her that we couldn't get out.
The flat was absolutely amazing. Like home from home. It was immaculately clean and comfortable. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay again.
As said above, the only thing we didn't like was the parking situation.
4.5
