I could not fault it

Room 4 was my single room with its own WC and Basin plus a shower room just across the landing for private use. A bathrobe was made available. The room I stayed in was perfect for any solo traveller. Hillary was lovely and ensured everything was OK The hotel is a 12 minute walk from train station with a local bus service passing close by. I could not fault it.

Business trip stay

It was a pleasant stay and the welcome on arrival was much appreciated. The room was comfortable and as I was on business it was mainly just a bed for the night. The tea and coffee facilities in the room were good and plentiful. I would stay here again and despite being next to a main street the room was quiet.

Disliked: Room comfort
Everything was fine at first. But felt like we couldnt talk or watch tv cos the old couple next to us complained. We weren't being loud the walls were paper thin. Windows old floors creeky everywhere. We weren't allowed food in the room and dining room wasn't open. Where were we supposed to eat. I dont recommend if you like to have fun without having to creep around. Kinda ruined our break

Lovely break in Scarborough.

Arrived late afternoon, plenty of free on street parking either outside the hotel or across the way. Greeted with a warm welcome. Room on first floor, no lift but the lady did offer to take our bags upstairs, we were fine though. Room beautiful and spotlessly clean, tea/coffee making facilities. Bed very comfortable. Nice bathroom. Hotel is a 5 minute walk to the sea front and a 15/20 minute easy walk to the town. Nice, quiet area. We would definitely use this hotel again.

Small room

Our room was an extremely small room. Had older style sash windows, no double glazing so there was some noise from outside. Fan and heater were provided. No takeaway food allowed in room, not that we wanted it but not known that before. Parking was on street parking, we didn't have any problems finding a space but it sometimes involved a bit of manoeuvring to get in on the narrow roads
