It's a budget hotel but you get what you pay for. It is old, dated and creaky - a bit like me. Yes, it needs renovation but our room was ok. The guy behind the desk showed us to the room and brought us an extra towel. Don't expect modern, luxury accommodation and you'll be ok

AVOID AVOID AVOID I booked this as single parent, taking my girls to stay over in Scarborough as a half term treat for a couple of nights. The photos on the site advertising it must be years old. It's desperately in need of improvement in all areas. The bedding was clean, but the carpets have seen better days. On our first day I had to find a local shop to buy toilet roll for the hotel room as not left any. On our first night, someone in the hotel was playing loud music intermittently until midnight. People clearly lived in this hotel from all backgrounds and walks of life. There was a child upstairs running around constantly until late. All different people wandering the corridors. On our second day we had no hot water. Second night a group of women arrived who were stood in the corridors and at 2am I had to go out into the corridor to ask them to be quiet having constantly waking my children as they were so loud. It was not pleasant with young children, and clearly this is not a 'holiday' location/hotel. There is no one on reception to manage anything or report anything to. The doors are always open and anyone coming and going. On the morning we were leaving the corridors smelt of cannabis. I would not recommend to anyone. I don't normally review or listen to reviews as I think I like to make my own mind up. But this was just awful.

A shoutout to the receptionist

The hotel is amazing. The receptionist was super friendly and helpful. When we mentioned the sea he even showed us around in his car. Highly recommend.

More a house of multiple occupation than a hotel

No one on reception at check-in. No response on pressing the bell. Telephone call to given number was met with a promise to send someone. Was left waiting for quarter of an hour waiting for the receptionist to arrive, requiring a second telephone call. Receptionist stares into a key cabinet working out what keys to issue, before finally issuing a key. Generally the hotel was rather grotty and dilapidated, appearing to be more a HMO. Evidently the property a number of permanent or semi-permanent foreign residents, confirmed by a volume of post/mail seen at reception. Parking was also a nightmare.

Needs improvement!!

We didn't expect anything other than basic for the price - we were looking for a cheap bed for the night whilst decorating a house. The bathroom floor is damaged and rotting, but more concerning is the broken towel rail, which my 8 year old cut his head on. I have tried to ring to let the Hotel owners know as the place was unmanned at check out but couldn't get an answer!

Green Gables hotel, next to Falsegrave park

It was ok. The hotel will not suit everyone. The webpage is misleading. No pool, no games room, no bar no dining room. No lounge no conservatory access. My room was fine, it had four beds. All very basic. No heating, it was chilly for april. An electric vector heater provided. It had everything I needed. Kettle, hot water, shower, nice view. I reckon it is also transit accomodation for asylum seekers and/or refugees. Which was fine for me. No noise, in fact I saw very few people. No staff at all. It is beautiful hotel, a little run down, in a lovely location, next to a park. I would stay again. The Scarborough town cryier lives next door, lovely man. I read the reviews before booking so I knew what others have said. Carpark

Lovely building, but run down

Upon arrival no staff was to be seen, but was polite and showed us to our rooms. A few hazards on entry grates raised up on tile flooring at entry ( trip hazard) lift doesnt work. We was there two nights no fresh towels or bedding. Had to buy our own toilet roll. Cleaness needs a good clean over, walls had stains, carpets need a good clean. Overall was warm, comfy. Its a hotel that would have alot of potential or would benefit a good make over. Pictures arent a true image of the hotel people are expecting on arrival. Its a shame its been left to be run down.

Cheap because it's poor

Green Gables is not an Hotel but a guest house. There is not a receptionist to welcome you and the whole place is very tired and needing an overhaul. Be prepared for a wait to book in. One room we stayed in had a leak under the floor in the bathroom and a carpet that was not fitted. It wasn't even cut to size. A second room had a leaking radiator which could not be used. The flooring is poor in all the rooms we have stayed in (4 in total) It is also very noisy, there are many guests who don't appreciate that some people would like to get to sleep before 11pm. They do provide tea, coffee and cups. Just two per room and only one teaspoon. The bed sheets are thinner than cigarette papers and the beds not that comfortable. The only reason we stayed here is because we were renovating a property that was close by. I certainly won't be returning. It is cheap, and there's a reason. We also had problems with people trying our door, usually between 10pm and 11:15 pm.

Budget, basic room which is exactly what we paid !

We were looking for a cheap, basic bed for the night and this delivered. It was clean, bed not particularly comfortable but certainly adequate for the price. Pretty good plumbing considering the age of the building, and the heating was good! A few snaggy things like a small hole in the wardrobe door and broken sharp towel rail.
