Cosy little cottage nice and clean
The oven was quite awkward to use as was the shower cubicle. Anyone who was a little plump would of struggled to get in there and there was a bad stain on the carpet in the bedroom

Excellent location, well equipped. The phrase compact but bijou springs to mind.
We wanted a sea view, and there was: 2 tiny triangles of blue beween pitched roofs. If you ascended to the top floor.
The only not-very-private outdoor space was a shared path, and rather scruffy.

Incredible location and such a cute cottage over three floors. The place was super clean with lovely fresh towels and bedding. Well equipped kitchen and very comfy couch and beds :-)
Liked it all :-)

Location
Stairs were steep and open on one side dangerous for anyone unsteady on their feet.
Pouring with rain when we arrived and there were no mats inside door so we had to put kitchen towel down.
The insurance/deposit. Steep for two night stay. Surely, Booking.com could have an annual insurance which would probably be no different from what we paid for 2 nights. Charges were not clear on booking confirmation which when I contacted Booking.com they agreed with but nothing done!
It was unclear which car park was which at the top of the hill as arrived in darkness and ended up paying at the mosr expensive of the two car parks.

The location was excellent , 2 minutes from the beach and near all amenities .
Better communication about parking !! My husband spent over an hour trying to pay for parking, he tried 3 cards but he found unless you tick all the boxes, which is suppose to be a choice . It doesn’t accept payment . There is a camera recording time of arrival. With the difference of time of arrival and finally paying for parking we have ended with a 60 pound find as well as paying for three days parking .
We will never book any property which is booked through Host and Stay . 15 emails, 250 pound insurance cover plus a further 25 pounds insurance , oh which is not refundable ……. Why ?

The location and the cottage was nice, clean, tidy comfortable
The booking procedure and paying the deposit was ridiculous. Never ever will I use this type of booking procedure and deposit method. Up to now I have had 24 emails in connection with this one night stay. Having left the property on the 18th, I may not get my deposit of £250 returned to my account. 10 days waiting for a refund on my deposit is ridiculous. GET A GRIP, and they had the audacity to charge me £10 for the pleasure of paying the deposit. Sorry, booking.com, but you have gone way down on my accommodation booking list.
And by the way, no hot water in the cottage

Comfortable bed.
Reasonably priced.
Warm and cosy.
Complicated induction hob and couldn't find the instruction manual anywhere.
Perfect for 2 adults, top floor bedroom a little precarious with the stairs.
Sofa looking tired.

Location was excellent, Village was lovely. Cottage was clean and neat had everything we needed.
A little better description of where the cottage was as we couldn't find it for a while as there are lots of cottages called Harbour ..... - we couldn't google it as there was no signal at the bottom of the hill. No parking so we ended up having to park at the top of the hill and walk down with all our luggage.

ridiculously dangerous stairs, no riser, bannister or carpet, so dangerous. some carpet or rug would have been nice in the front room, couldn’t use the coffee machine as had European plug

Location was excellent. Tastefully decorated and very comfortable beds. The cottage is a good space for 2 people for a short stay.
We were OK, but the open, narrow staircase may be a challenge for others. The oven and hob are on the small side due to limited space. This is fine for small simple meals.

The location was perfect the facilities were good
There was mold on the windows and a bad smell throughout the cottage could do with some improvements overall to make it smell and feel better.

4.0 / 5.0
Great position. Comfortable and everything you need for a short stay. Great staff at the Cod & Lobster - we arrived to find the property had been double booked and someone else was in there - had no phone signal, were being asked to move our car by the council and was at a loss as to what to do! Very stressful! Went in the pub, they let me use their phone to ring Host & Stay and resolve the issue. So grateful to them and the locals who rallied round us.
The loading/unloading is very tricky in peak season. We parked near the Cod & Lobster pub to unload and the council were on us asking us to move almost immediately.

Location was fab, right in the centre of Staithes, good food nearby, pubs too. The property is recently refurbished, very clean and fresh and care has been taken to ensure all needs are met. The beds are comfy and the bathroom modern and clean. Really good.
Last residents could have washed up a little better, it's easy, there's plenty of hot water, soap, sponges and tea towels provided. The shower was a little slow to drain, so I turned off, to allow it to avoid it over flowing, but the turned it back on after a while to rinse the soap off and scolded my back, I was pretty quick to get out of the stream, I'm used to thermostatic valves so probably my fault, but could have been nasty with a child.
4.5 / 5.0
I like the the cottage as it is centrally located. Very close to the port, cafe's and pubs. People are friendly.
The noise of sea gull in the morning. The sun sun shine is too bright from 4am (in summer). Could do with blackout blinds.

Great location and a nice property
Property dirty , dusty and had not been cleaned properly prior to our visit
3.5 / 5.0
Check in was very easy. We arrived a day later than planned and it was nice knowing I wasn't bothering somebody to get the keys.
The accomodation was clean.
The location was perfect. 10 steps away from the sea and the village pub.
The front door didn't close properly (though it did lock). Cold air got in through the gap. We visited at the end of November, this wouldn't have been a problem in the summer.
All of the kitchen cupboards were full of pots, pans, crockery. This left no where to store bread and other food stuff you wouldn't put in the fridge.
