Quiet, just what I needed to recharge my batteries Positive: Sainsbury's was nearby so I was able to buy a box of cereal for the whole of my stay Negative: There was NO instructions on how to operate the oven, microwave, coffee pod machine or dishwasher.

RobertBooking.comJun 2025

Better than I expected all good Positive: Very clean and modern room, I even had a partial Sea view which was unexpected. I thought the on line guide was really informative. Easy to acess the property after being sent the code. A good base for a two day stay and the craft beer bar Twenty 23 was in the same street and I found a good Thai restaurant just 5 min walk away.

Everything was exactly as described and very clean. It is handy for me when visiting my son and family. However I sort of resent the added on charges for cleaning and insurance, I do think these should be included in the price shown. Especially in a unit rented to one person. Cleaning charges seem to pop up quite often now but it is the only place I have come across the insurance charge. Love the unit and ease of booking, stairs could be a problem for some.

GuestAirbnbApr 2024

I was happy with my stay, All was good. A little annoying to pay a cleaning fee then get urged to leave everything clean (which I would always do) Also it is the first time that an insurance fee has been insisted on.

GuestAirbnbApr 2024

The Pods are always first on the list for using when I'm in the area. Comfortable, clean and in a great location. No noise pollution noted during any of my stays here so a good nights sleep always had. Management team very responsive if needed.

I stayed in pod 3 for eleven days. The stay was with my partner who had flown from Vegas. We found the bed very comfortable, we found the area amazing. It served our needs and was very affordable. I am very thankful that have found this gem in my hometown.

GuestAirbnbJul 2023

Schade dass die Unterkunft schmutzig war. Meine Frau hatt selber noch über eine halbe Stunde geputzt. Küche, Bad, WC, Abfallkübel, Fenstersims, Boden, etc. Schade war auch, dass bei der Buchung nichts von Kaution und Zusatzkosten, die wir zu Zahlen hatten, geschrieben wurde. Das hatten wir in den 4 Wochen Ferien in Scottland noch nie.

GuestAirbnbSep 2022

Lovely stay here, although if I book again I will go for pod 1 or 2. I didn’t realise this was on the third floor and had some very heavy bags and a partner with RA. No other complaints though, the pod itself was lovely!

GuestAirbnbAug 2022

Had a wonderful stay with my partner. The location is absolutely fantastic, would honestly recommend staying here for a weekend.

Good value for the price Positive: As the photo , like new, close to shops, beach 10 min walk Negative: The rain forest shower head low ok if you are under5’ 8”

GuestAirbnbApr 2025

We were extremely pleased with our stay in a lovely well-equipped apartment in a great location for the sea and all local amenities. Exceptionally clean and comfortable we definately got value for money. The Pillar Box micro pub nearby is worth a visit as is The Ship with seaviews. Great walks to Redcar (8 miles return along the beach) and a scenic 5 mile circular from The Ship pub. Would definately recommend staying at Studio 3

This was our first visit to Saltburn and we were not disappointed! The property was as listed - very comfortable and everything to hand. We really enjoyed the Food Festival - what a buzz it gave to Saltburn....and the weather was just perfect! The property is very well placed in Saltburn- we travelled by train and was amazed to find that the property was a minute's walk from the train station! We ate at Seaview restaurant, which we can highly recommend...and we also had their takeout fish and chips too! Saltburn is a most lovely place to visit, with easy access to the surrounding coast and countryside. Thank you for a lovely stay. Angela and Iain

GuestAirbnbSep 2023

Lovely little morden studio flat. Comfy bed, brilliant kitchen and a tidy bathroom. The property itself is mere minutes from the local train station and busses so you can explore further around the coast even if you don't have a car. The beach is a short walk down the road and it is absolutely beautiful - the pier and Funicular are a must see. The town itself is a quirky, quiet town with a some great shops for poking about in and a well stocked supermarket so you can cook meals back at the flat should you choose to. We're fallen in love with Saltburn and would definitely visit and stay at this property again. Thank you

GuestAirbnbJul 2023

Great place and location with lovely pubs and bars and places to eat very nearby.

We enjoyed staying at the Studio Pod - the location is great & there is a very comfortable bed with mattress protector although there was only one pillowcase on the pillows - it would be more hygienic if the pillows had protectors that were washed after each guest too. We discovered that the main overhead shower wasn't working and is leaking from the pipe down the wall when the shower is switched on - the sealant around the bath at the bottom of the wall boards has black mould and is missing in places - we reported all this through Host & Stay so hopefully it will be rectified soon before water goes through to the Studio Pod on the floor below. Overall though, nice looking studio with good facilities & a great place to stay for a weekend away when we come to visit our son & grand-daughter.

Really great location not at all over commercial just nice cafes places to eat and drink just right for us and our dog Arlo .The beach is great there is areas that dogs aren't allowed but that's fair enough.Sunday Lunch at The Spa is a must especially as you can take your dog too .

First time visiting Saltburn. Airbnb was perfect, central location and easy to get it everywhere we wanted to visit.

IzzyBooking.comOct 2025

Really enjoyed our stay, would 100% come back! Amazing location and lovely hosts :) Positive: Super modern, sleek and tidy. Location is perfect and easy parking and access. Negative: Bathroom vent flap opens and shuts constantly throughout the night causing a constant slapping noise.

DerekBooking.comOct 2025

Good instructions, key safe entry, exactly as described Studio flat, quiet because at back of building, amenities walkable.

GuestAirbnbSep 2025

was visiting family in Saltburn, studio was ideal for a couple of nights. close to good restaurants and cafes and easy to get down to beach. easy free street parking outside

CarolBooking.comAug 2025

Shame TV didn’t work, and the stains on the carpet hadn’t been addressed. Positive: We didn’t eat in so cannot comment on kitchen equipment, fridge looked clean. Great location, close to everything. Bed was comfy. Easy to follow instructions to gain entry. Negative: TV didn’t work, wire hanging down with bare copper wires hung out, lump of copper on the floor, so may have been an issue before. Bad stains on carpet & bits all over looked as if it hadn’t been hoovered properly. Reported when we arrived, morning after the agency said the owner did offer to come out to look at the TV. We did say it didn’t matter as we were only there for another night. No refund offered.

GuestAirbnbAug 2025

Genuinely the best Airbnb fell in love with Saltburn and the flat was amazing! Very convenient with Sainsbury’s being right in front of the building

Really attractive pod, every amenity beautifully presented. In the centre of town and within walking distance of the sea. Thanks

TonyBooking.comMar 2025

Clean comfy well appointed Positive: Well appointed and clean and comfy Negative: The fact that we were going to be charged £30 for an early check in

GuestAirbnbFeb 2025

A great stay - Pod 3 was in the perfect location and just as described! A lovely few days away and walks along the beach were stunning. Thank you.

HilaryBooking.comFeb 2025

Fantastic Getaway Positive: Pretty much everything! Kitchen was well stocked with everything I needed, including sharp knives ... always good. Bed was comfy, it was very clean and well positioned to access cafes, eating establishments and shopping. Negative: Would have liked some basic items to clean the bathroom

AeronaBooking.comOct 2024

It was overall a good place to stay Positive: Location was fantastic, clean and a fantastic stay Negative: The seal on the windows was leaky, there were broken cooking utensils, the pillows were lumps and hadn’t been changed for ages, the duvet cover had holes in it

TonyBooking.comSep 2024

Pleasant but noisy Positive: Location and the cleanliness Negative: We were informed that we were in Pod 3 but when we accessed the key box to pod 3 the keys were for pod 1 on the ground floor we were disturbed twice out of the 2 night with the noise transferring from the pod above. This was due to the laminated floor installed echoing the footsteps of the person walking about from when the come back to the pod at midnight. This happens on both night disturbing our sleep. We could also hear the TV and what appeared to be dragging a chair across the floor and the opening and closing of the cupboard doors, I feel that the dividing floor does not meet current acoustic standards required for HMO’s

EleanorBooking.comSep 2024

Positive: clean, comfortable, great location Negative: The main entrance door was very heavy and difficult to open and close.

GuestAirbnbSep 2024

The accommodation was very good. The only suggestion we would make is that there should have been a mattress protector fitted

HallBooking.comSep 2024

Positive: Location was perfect Negative: They did not inform us of the code for the keybox by email as they said would be the case. Attempts to contact someone when the code had not arrived by 4pm failed. We eventually found a text message with the code

GuestAirbnbSep 2024

super cute and cosy place to stay. very clean very happy

GuestAirbnbAug 2024

Location is great, with a beautiful beach nearby. Hosts were communicative with lots of information, local recommendations etc. We felt that the apartment was nice - spacious, nicely decorated, but a little dirty including some unpleasant stains in the bathroom. It was missing some of the nice touches sometimes seen in other airbnbs - eg. Only 2 tea bags

DoreenBooking.comAug 2024

Excellent location in Saltburn Positive: Compact and comfortable studio apartment right in the centre of town, really close to everything. Well decorated and spotless. Negative: Nothing

GuestAirbnbAug 2024

westmorelandBooking.comJul 2024

Positive: Saltburn is very quiet but weather was not good so this could have been reason. Not a lot there but suited us. Very nice place and will return. The studio pods we stayed in was very clean the bed was very comfortable would definitely recommend it. Location couldn't have been better. Negative: We paid a insurance for if anything got damaged. Wasn't told about this until we booked and payed. This was put on extra after you can not get key code until it is paid. We got a message off host asking if anything got damaged would we inform them if we didn't we would be charged. Isn't the insurance we paid for that. Either way we would inform them.

GuestAirbnbJun 2024

Lovely apartment in a convenient location in town and walkable to the sea and gardens. Comfy bed. Everything you need in the kitchen area. Sea view that was a bonus. Ideal for a couple of nights. Supermarket and station close by. Easy parking in the street outside. Nice cafes and bars close by.

Great location, lovely apartment! would stay again.

GuestAirbnbAug 2023

Amazing stay and a great location. Had awesome contact throughout. Only slight negative was it wasn’t the absolute cleanest air b n b I’ve stayed in and the security deposit was a bit cheeky. Genuinely a lovely place and we had a fab time in Saltburn. Thank you so much!

SarahBooking.comAug 2023

Positive: Great location, facilities well presented, and all equipment needed for a short break Bed comfy Very clean Negative: Blinds pretty but not great at keeping sun out if you are a light sleeper

LesleyBooking.comAug 2023

Positive: The location was very good. Negative: 4pm is a late check in

SallyBooking.comJul 2023

Positive: Great location and lovely studio. Negative: Felt a bit bombarded by emails and texts from Host & Stay, particularly reminding us of our check out time and requirements. Would have been helpful to have had a hard copy of the guest guidebook in the studio as well as access to it online.

PamBooking.comJul 2023

Well equipped apartment, which was fine for a short stay. Positive: More spacious and better equipped than anticipated. On the whole, the apartment was clean. Starter supply of tea, coffee and milk was appreciated. Free on street parking was handy. Negative: Black mark on bedding, mould in corner of bath. Didn’t realise the apartment was at top of house, and the two flights of stairs with luggage was not ideal. Glassware had to be washed, as they were finger-marked. We were awoken at 5.30 am on the morning of departure by the fire alarm! Owners did not answer their phone when another resident tried to contact them. The fire brigade was summoned by another resident. Happily, no fire was detected and the alarm was turned off.

IanBooking.comJun 2023

Excellent studio in a good location in a very pleasant typically traditional English seaside resort Positive: Self catering. Location excellent when you found the premises. Negative: The stay almost went wrong from the start when it appeared that there was no hot water and this was discovered at 10.30 p.m. the night of our arrival. After an hour trying to find out the reason going through procedure manuals which did not seem to help, it turned out that the tap in the hand basin in the bathroom had been plumbed in the wrong way so that to get hot water, you had to turn it cold. everything had been set up to operated automatically and it was o.k. after that. What I did not like was the constant bombarding with e-mails from Host & Stay reminding us that we had to verify the booking at least 7 days before arrival., 8 days before arrival, I received an e-mail to say that the booking was at the point of being cancelled due to non--verification when this had been done 2 days previously. there had to be several telephone conversations to clear up minor problems.

GuestAirbnbJun 2023

We stayed for two night this June and thought the apartment was perfect - well equipped kitchen and bathroom, excellent location close to the shops, restaurants and beach and the bed made for a great nights sleep. There is also a tiny sea view!

GuestAirbnbOct 2022

Lovely modern apartment located in a perfect location in Saltburn.

GuestAirbnbOct 2022

The apartment was very clean and well furnished providing a very convenient central location to explore Saltburn and the area. However, the host failed to provide the access code prior to us arriving and did not answer the phone leaving us standing out in the rain for nearly an hour. Two weeks before the arrival date they started demanding personal and financial information to only be communicated outside of airbnb, which is against airbnb rules. We reluctantly complied in order to not have to cancel our holiday.

JadeBooking.comSep 2022
GuestAirbnbSep 2022

This Airbnb was in the perfect location in such a beautiful little town. Everything was only a few steps away, from the beach, restaurants, the farmers market, groceries, and only a few steps from the train. The bed was very comfortable and the pod had everything we needed. Check in was a breeze. A big thank you to our host!

AnitaBooking.comSep 2022

Almost perfect pod Positive: Well equipped kitchen, missing only a bread board/knife. Fresh milk and ground coffee, including a Nespresso machine with pods. Modern and stylish furniture. Very close to restaurants, bars and shops Can see the sea (just) out of the window from Pod 3. Negative: Layout of bed and wardrobe, tight to get past and open drawers and door. Banister height on stairs to 2nd floor were very low, which made climbing down awkward for someone tall who needs the banister to descend safely.

GuestAirbnbAug 2022

Fab stay. Gorgeous little pod, had everything you needed. Great location. Would highly recommend 😁

MorganBooking.comAug 2022

A lovely location and comfortable accommodation. Positive: The studio pod was very well resourced. The kitchen had a coffee maker and coffee pods, salt and pepper and a teapot which was very welcome. As was the pint of milk in the fridge. The accommodation was furnished to a very high standard and was very clean. Negative: I would have liked a full length mirror but it was not essential.

GuestAirbnbAug 2022

Perfect location with plenty of parking around. Everything was as described and true to the pictures. Spotless and comfortable
