Large, three story, spacious house to share with family or friends.

The house is in a great location. All rooms and areas of the house are spacious. All the facilities you could need.

A small error on the part of the cleaner in the kitchen area.

Our family of 7 had a wonderful 5 days in Whitby and The Alby was a perfect base. The kids loved the toy room and the ch

Great location, close to all the amenities and facilities that Whitby has to offer. Well equipped property and well maintained with plenty of space for 7 people.

Only slight bit of criticism is that the bed and mattress were not very comfortable. The bed felt a bit flimsy/ creaky and the mattress had a dip in it. Maybe just that it is not what I am used to but it wouldn’t put me off rebooking.

Lovely house, great location with parking

We have stayed at The Alby before and loved it, but the renovations have made the space work much better and we loved it even more. Superb location, just a few minutes walk into Whitby town (the walk back is up a very steep hill). Two parking spaces, well stocked kitchen although an extra tea towel would have been appreciated if I'm being super nit picky! Kids loved the bunk room with the little toy kitchen and games. A lovely, cosy stay. We hope to stay again in the future.

We loved our stay

We had a great stay at The Alby. It is a very comfortable, clean and well presented property, only a 5 minute walk from Whitby centre. We really liked the little extras well thought out by the owners for example a toy box packed full of toys and a cupboard full of games which were a life saver as we did not have much packed in terms of entertainment for the little ones. Communication with host and stay was excellent, queries were answered within a matter of minutes. I would definitely recommend staying here.

The mattresses were too soft for us but this is personal preference and we are used to a very firm mattress at home.

Great location and lovely inside the house.

The garden front & back. It needs tidying up and maintaining better.

Superb

The place had everything we needed, lots of fridge space for drinks and food for all 8 of us.

There is enough space for 2 cars but because there were cars parked opposite we could only fit one of our cars in which meant we had to pay extra to park

Disappointed

Beds were comfy Location was good

Nothing was clean , I had to clean once I arrived , Host and stay offered me a cleaner which wasn't until the following day which I knew I had to decline because I wasn't going to sleep in a dirty environment. THE FRIDGE WAS FILTHY I HAD TO GO FIND SUPERMARKET TO BUY CLEANING PRODUCTS AND RUBBER GLOVES.There was mouldy food lay around, dirty bins, rubbish empty boxes in cupboard. The microwave hasn't been cleaned in so long therefore was dirty food inside. There was suspicious substance white powder debris left behind in cupboards. There was dirty socks in bedroom, the top double room the bed sheets all ripped. There was a dirty napkin in bottomed double room. They safety box to get key out out so old hard get into. For tye price of the stay I was disappointed and I think there was no proper cleaner hired and in these times clean environment is essential on a trip.

Mattress in the master bedroom is ridiculously soft, I think it needs replacing. A lock in the master bedroom door would have been nice. Some instructions on how to use the oven would also have been handy

It was in walking distance to access all attractions in Whitby town centre. However, the apartment was cosy and like home from home and we also spent a lot of time in there. Parking great too!!

The location was great easy to walk into the town, the bed rooms were lovely and light and comfortable. It was great to have some outside space to eat in the garden.

The lounge is a little dark and colder because it is in the basement. The kitchen was not as clean as the rest of the house. The garden needs some care

Motorbike heaven - Superb property and location

We were a group of over 50 lol motorbikers who wanted to visit Whitby and ride the surrounding area. We arrived at this great property with everything you need and more. Spacious for 7 people. Very much home from home. 10 minutes from town centre accessible for all shops and sightseeing. 2 parking spaces provided. Host & Stay who managed the property have excellent communication from the minute you start your booking and would certainly recommend. More than likely will return. The area for riding is amazing 👏

Nothing at all. We were so very impressed

Disappointed

Sleeps 10...comfy beds. Well fitted kitchen.

Very unimpressed with the property. There is a God awful smell in the house...coming from the basement level....kitchen and living room but permeating throughout. Absolutely ruined our holiday. A serious damp problem. Secondly, the rugs/carpets are very badly stained..especially in the lower bedroom room nearest to the front door. I took photos because I was so aghast and the skirting boards are filthy. I know it's September - the end of the summer season but an air bnb should be in tip top condition 24/7. The crockery/glassware was fine but the house sleeps 10. The 2 sofas seat 6. There were always people without a comfy seat. Who wants to sit on a hard bench? There was only one set of keys. The doors cannot be opened inside without a key. I left at 5.30 this morning but the others left later. How was I supposed to lock the front door after me? If I put the keys in the keysafe, how would the other family members locate them? They were then locked in! An absolute health and safety issue. Like wise the back door. I had to wake someone up at 5 30am to lock the door behind me. Yesterday, my husband went out and locked the front door and took the key with him as we were going to be apart for the day and I would not be home to let him in. I said I'd use the back key. I sat in the back yard with a drink but then the sun moved to the front. ButI could not I not access the front! I voukd walk through the house but thefront door was locked. So I had to pick up my glass and walk down the back road, round and up into the next road to sit in the front garden. But then could still not access the house, so had to walk back later. Completely impractical. There should be at least 2 sets. Also we arrived to find a grubby damp towel hanging behind the en-suite. Finally I do not think the advert makes it clear enough that it is unsuitable for disabled guests. We were very disappointed.

The property was in a great location with good sized bedrooms

Not bad, but could do with a few bits fixing

Comfy beds and sofas. Spacious kitchen area Good shower and nice deep bath. Close to centre of town. Room for parking 2 cars

Broken door handle in one of the bedrooms. Broken/loose light pull in bathroom, dangerous, needs fixing asap. Table and bench seating in living room too large for the room, made it far too cramped. Not very clean, surfaces in kitchen and the table top were sandy when we arrived. Needs a blind in the bathroom, felt very on show at night as there was no window covering. Alot of rubbish, plastic bags etc where we parked the cars, looked a mess, not a great first impression.

nice house, quite near to town centre, not for those with mobility issues as up a very steep hill

bedrooms good size and beds very comfy, kitchen very well equipped

garden and yard could do with some tlc so nicer to sit outside in, wouldn’t have taken much to hose and brush down and tidy up, also few bits and pieces round and about the house could be fixed and repaired ie door handles light, light switches etc

It was a fantastic property in a great location

Location was great, very close to the town, Parking for 2 cars off road at the property

There was garbage in the parking space that really smelt. The back gate did not lock or even latch properly from the outside so had to leave via front door all the time.
