Louisa is a very attentive and friendly host and the Hotel is very clean and comfortable, it is also very central for both bay's and the town.
We were on the top floor which was quite a climb, but to be fair to Louisa she contacted us before taking the payment for the booking and pre warned us I was very impressed with her honesty and consideration.

The english breakfast was very, very good. The location is good - we took a bath in the sea every morning. The room was very quiet.
Nothing.

Breakfast was well served but, we had to share a table with other guests , who were very annoying and spoiled our morning breakfast. We only wanted to eat in peace no chance of that and didn't get offer of another table to be on our own. Every other room had a table to themselves.
The room we had was far too small the window only opened a inch for air, the shower was absolutely useless. We had been told we were getting a sea front room with a bay window, but by the time we got there our room had been given to someone else. We found this out when there friends came to find them.

Very friendly, courteous & professional staff. Amazing breakfast. No problems asking for more toast, tea or coffee. Fabulous views of the North bay & Scarborough castle. 10-15 mins walk to main town center, harbour, sea front & public transport hub. Great choice of local pubs, restaurants & chippies. Very clean, modern & welcoming establishment. Had a brilliant holiday, thank you.
Not a criticism by any means but it's an old style guest house. 5 stories high. No room to instal lifts. So would not recommend, if your not good with stairs.

Great location on the quieter North shore of Scarborough. A warm welcome, Free private & on street parking. Room was spotlessly clean & very comfortable. Room made up everyday. Powerful shower & quality toiletries. Lovely fresh cooked breakfasts in dining room overlooking the Sea. Friendly, efficient, helpful owners & staff. Good, free wi-fi signal. Would definitely stay again.
Twin room was quite small, but still comfortable.

The location was good facing on to a beach and we managed to get parked in the hotel car park.
The room was very small and very hot despite having the windows open. The sink was in the room rather than in the bathroom. However e it couldn't have fitted in due to it been so small anyway. The wardrobe door kept banging against the bathroom door due to the lack of space. The bed wasn't a full sized double and their was too much furniturefor such a small room.
In addition, I found it very rude on the last day when the owner Louisa started to sweep and clean the table that was attached to ours when I'd just received my breakfast. I'm sure it could have waited until we'd finished. The breakfast sausage and bacon wasn't to my taste.

It was very clean. Great location owner was very helpful, breakfast was very good. Rooms cleaned and mugs changed daily and tea coffee sugar milk topped up daily.
There is no lift but not the end of the world and was telephoned by owner to confirm we would be ok with stairs. The only thing I could find fault with was the shower it wasn’t very powerful and would cut out completely at times .

The host was brilliant stood by all the covid guidelines and more, nothing too much trouble we felt very safe and care for would definitely go again, perhaps not on top floor next time, but nothing wrong with it just legs older than we think x
We liked everything

The hotel is situated in a prime location on the seafront. We had a room on the top floor. We were made aware of the fact there is no lift so you need to get up 4 flights of stairs. But it was worth it. With s view of the sea and the castle 0 complaints. The hosts were wonderful getting to know us from the moment we stopped through the doors and also putting me at ease with the great covid precautions. The breakfast offered was too notch arrived quick and fresh. With a high attention to customer service. The parking situation is a little tight out the front but again. Would ask daily if you needed to move your car that day and make arrangements with other guests or even give you a day pass for parking out the front
The room it's self was very clean. And the bed comfy the TV was a little small in the room but again so much to do outside it was the perfect base for us to get some good sleep. Also had teas coffees and hot chocolate and biscuits refilled every day.
The shower on full power mode went from hot to cold. But found no issues when using the eco mode. The walls were a little thin so could sometimes here the people in the room next to us.
