Host & Stay - Artsbank Apartment

Artsbank had everything we needed, a comfy bed a well equipped kitchen and a flat screen TV plus all facilities including a washing machine and a dishwasher. It was also in a prime location in the town, with great cafes and bars on the doorstep, we had a lovely stay.

Only the stairs up.

apartment was great containing all that was needed

key box was next door and took us about 10 minutes to locate we were not warned that there were 4 flights of stairs. i am 82 so struggled with suitcases and access to and fro central heating not working so we had to call someone to fix it Bed too low, struggled to get out

The apartment was very spacious and comfortable, the en suite to one of the bedrooms was a bonus as we didn't realise there was one. The apartment is in an excellent location situated on the main road through the town, with some lovely bars, cafes and shops as well as a supermarket conveniently located nearby. Parking was never a problem and all the on street parking is free, if we didn't get parked right outside the door then we were less than a minutes walk away. The beach was only a five minute walk away although be prepared for a steep climb back up the steps, also some lovely walks in the nearby valley country park which picks up the Cleveland way, my dog had the best time exploring on woodland walks and along the side of Skelton beck. For an alternative beach walk, Marske is only 5 minutes drive again with free parking for upto 4 hours, or you could walk there in about 40 minutes, Redcar is another couple of miles north of Marske with more chance of walking on the beach The host was great at communicating before, during and after our stay, we will definitely be looking at returning next year

Nothing really that we disliked about the property

Great location and very well equipped. I’ve recommended it to my friends.

Nothing!

Lovely spacious apartment and nice and modern with a comfortable feel to it. Excellently located and close to the beach and all amenities

All excellent

Great location, spacious and stylish, good water pressure, nice towels

Not cleaned to high enough standard, pet hair on sofa and rugs, dirty carpet, mouldy tea towel provided! Windows not opening/closing well, no blackout blinds, only 4 mugs for the apartment, no hooks in bathrooms, ensuite basin draining very slowly, strong mouldy smell in bedroom cupboard.

Spacious comfortable flat in a very good location.

Windows needed black out curtains as it was a bright for the summer mornings.

Lots of space & nice bright rooms. Very bright on an early morning in May... Comfortable but could do with an extra tub chair in room.

It was quite dusty in places when we arrived so felt the need to go over work tops and tables etc. May have been due to the constant air vent going like the clappers as it was a very windy Bank Holiday weekend. The first bedroom first window would not seal properly so curtains blowing constantly & when bedroom doors closed on an evening constantly banging because of this. So not a restful sleep as hoped. The bed in the first bedroom also dips in the middle a little & mattress too soft for me. The main bathroom hand towel left for us was wringing wet but folded for use so an oversight there. Found a clean dry one in a cupboard in the kitchen so wasn't a problem. On suite shower door wouldn't close properly so leaked through & mopped up but could do with some attention. I've been overall disappointed with Host & Stay properties the last couple of bookings so not sure I will be booking again. It's the attention to detail that's lacking & not the luxury as advertised. It was OK, but who's looking for OK!!
