Feb 21, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect for access to the heart of Whitby Great little place, hosts were super quick at getting back to us and great at communicating. Loved the showers. No free parking close by however, so budget in some parking money. Also, 1st floor larger bed frame was wobbly, so favour the upstairs bedroom. Beautiful decor. Had everything we needed for a short stay. ##### A W. Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Elaine H. Jan 14, 2025 ##### Elaine H.
