Amy the host was first class and even upgraded my room after she had found out i had a bad day with my car breaking down and she also waited for me well after the time i was supposed to check in. Great room, great location and top customer service. Would definitely recommend

Decent enough place to stay. Showing it's age in places but overall clean and tidy. Staff were friendly. Easy to check in, and I set off early the following morning - leaving the keys in the box in the hallway. Very convenient for the town centre and seafront if you don't mind a few minutes walk. Variety of restaurants nearby, even before you reach the town centre.

Check in and parking was easy. The property was very clean. The old sash window rattled when open so I had to shut it which made the room warm.

Handy for all attractions in Scarborough
We had a great overnight stay. Our room was spacious and comfortable, and very clean, with a fantastic view over the North Bay. It is in a very handy position for both bays and also Peasholm park or the Open Air Theatre. It’s only a short walk to the town centre and station.
Handy parking outside and a very easy check in process. We will certainly book again next time we come to Scarborough.
We saw a wonderful sunrise from the bedroom window and got some great pics😊

We loved it here, room had a gorgeous view and the family room wa spacious. Bunk bed was a bit creakky (but our kids were probably too big for them really.) Fab locations for the northbay side where there is lots to do. Breakfast was AMAZING!

Everything was amazing, the breakfast was beautiful and there wasnt a brand of tea and coffee not available.
The lady in charge was so so kind, there was a mix up with our reservation (my fault) however she was so understanding and our stay went ahead.
Plenty of outdorr seating area front and back, all clean and tidy.
Inside was spotless, cosy and welcoming.
Ill definitely be coming back, it was away from the hustle and bustle but a glorious view of the sea.
10/10.
