Major improvements over the 2 years. Very clean, and warm reception with very good breakfast. Washroom light and fan need to work separately otherwise sound of fan is annoying if the light is left on.

There were people littering next to the place when we arrived. The room itself smelled like used wet towels. There were several stains, on the walls, counters, rug and sheets. The staff was amazing and it’s the reason this place gets 2 stars. It’s conveniently located, but I would advise folks to look for alternatives.

The manager and staff were frienfly and very attentive. Toilet wasnt flushing and maintenance fixed it quickly. Housekeeping made the bed the second day which you don't find often. Breakfast was not great. But coffee machine was great. I was pleased with the pricing for the stay. It's quite far far from Whitby.
