I probably did not do enough research as to how Discovery hotels work The Virtual customer service once I got through was polite and helpful but it took 40 minutes to get through. I was asking for a blanket as duvet was very thin. The heating was nt very efficient and in December more detail should be given Housekeeping - if you could find any - very nice and helpful Would book again in summer

The postcode given was not for the property we was staying at. No reception and poor signage in property. Dirty looking out front and dark inside. Room small and very basic poor ventalition and not equipped for elderly people. Couldn't upgrade room but couldn't. No parking at all. Communication unclear by staff and owner. More like a prison cell people complaining about the hotel. One young girl was only person that was helpful and polite. Would not recommend this hotel to anyone. But Whitby very beautiful and sea nice.

Small room

The room was tiny, had to close the bathroom door to access the shower and could barely walk around the bed. The room I had was clean and tidy but nowhere big enough for two people. For one person it was ok.

Website for property did not say room was on 3rd floor. Wife disabled and struggled with location as no lift, also omitted from website. Unclear room was room only, was expecting B&B, Breakfast facilities would have been a 5 minute walk away in another property. Room windows would not stay open, not airconditioned and no fan provided. Website said no kitchen facilities so did not bring own food, but when arrived induction hob pans, kettle and toaster provided. Floor in bathroom listing not fitted correctly and shower draining too slow for shower output so nearly floods the bathroom when shower is on. stains on the towels provided. bedding washed but not ironed bed sheet badly creased.

Summer 2022 Family Stay

We did have a very nice stay and the accommodation was on the whole, great. If I had to point out a few slight complaints, the pillows on the bed with the plastic covers under the pillow case where annoying and the plastic bags on the towels were not very eco-friendly. Also the disabled lift was permanently out of order(Based on the sign in the lift). These are small things and overall we enjoyed our stay and would stay again.
