Stayed here for Fortress festival between Friday 31st May to 2nd June, solo traveller and a mate had another room here.
Pros
- the place whilst dated, is very clean
-Lots of towels, plenty of soap and a small shower gel provided.
-Free bottle of water & Tea/coffee/milk & Viennese whirl biscuit
-Sweetie jar is a nice touch
-Comfy bed
-Nice and quiet - didn’t hear a thing all weekend.
Cons
-No hot water from the taps
-Hotel owner unlocked the door and let herself in the room when I was asleep, then apologised and left
-Front door was locked at night with a sign saying use other door, but I wasn’t given a key for the other door so couldn’t get in
-Shower goes scalding hot then freezing cold
-Shower rail is not secure so the shower head keeps falling down
- every time I saw the guy who checked me into the room, he was sat outside drinking cans of beer and smoking. He also neglected to tell my mate what to do with her parking sign for her car, and she was fined twice over night. That was very poor.
I’ve rated as 4 stars because I paid less than £200 for 3 nights over 1 of potentially Scarborough’s busiest weekends of the year. The problems were minor, although being locked out was very annoying. All in all I was pleased with the place, which is a 2 minute walk from the centre of town. Would I go back? Probably not, I’d be happier to pay a few extra quid and get something a bit more professional.

Had a lovely large room, my stay was perfect. Traveling solo, this was the largest room I ever had by myself. Walking distance to train station, close to everything I needed. Had 2 good sleeps, fairly quiet area at night (even though not far from pubs etc. if that is desired), would definitely stay again.

Trying hard to improve
Posted 15 Oct 2023 on HotelsOne night, 2 rooms. Helpful having one on ground floor. Manager very helpful. Hotel needs some modernisation as dated and smell of dogs put me off. Its a shame as could be much better. Also get rid of 4 poster and net trimmingss, toilet mats must go.
