Esklet Guest House

It was our first stay at the Esklet and we thought it was a very good quality hotel and would not hesitate to visit there again. The room was very cozy and comfortable, the location was central to all the usual Whitby sights, the English breakfast was very, very good as was the tea and coffee. All in in a really nice hotel to stay

lights, picture rail, tv and radio click all thick in dust. Kettle filthy therefore didn’t use. Bathroom mouldy stains. Sink and shower plug holes were full of hair. Shaver light broken and hanging off the wall. Mirror had smear in middle of it. Dated furniture and toiletries not supplied by ‘White’ as advertised on their web site. TV lost signal when moved on bracket and felt like it was about to fall off the wall. Hot breakfast was like warm. Very surprised this has a 4 star rating as felt more like a 2 star. Would not go back and would not recommend.

I tried to find a fault , but could not. It may be different if you have a car as parking seems difficult.

The guest house says free parking which actually isn't true had to drive round to find a car park which cost £7 for 24 hours, plus shower wasn't working or small basin light in the bathroom did have a ceiling light which was dim, apart from that it was ok

The staff were terrific, the location was convenient. The bed in my room was a bit lumpy, the toilet though "private" was through a door and down a stairs. US customers may not know the difference between private (your sole use) and ensuite (inside your room). That should be made clear in description.
