4/10 Poor

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Disliked: Cleanliness
The property had a smell about it. We subsequently found this was coming from the carpets. All if the cutlery and crockery was dirty and had to be washed before we could use them. The toaster was full of crumbs and so was the knife and fork draw. This could be a really nice property if the cleanliness issues are addressed. Very well located for the seafront and local shops etc. Car parking was a problem as there were no dedicated space. It was on the street on a first come basis. So you have the risk of not getting a space and having to search in adjacent streets for spaces. Not ideal with luggage and belongings.

Just what we needed

My husband and I and 2 small dogs really needed a weekend away by the sea! and this was perfect! newly refurbished, it was clean and had everything we needed.....and the location was perfect for the beach...5 mins and you are there! We are used to country cottages so we were concerned the street might be noisy but it was very quiet!! street parking is available- not always right outside the flat but it wasn't an issue for us. Would recommend!!

Clean property, well decorated and good communication. We encountered a few issues like bright lights outside bedroom window, no blackout blinds and noise from upstairs made sleeping quite difficult for us. Otherwise we had a nice stay and would recommend

Great stay

I think the place is great. It just neds a few slight updates. Privacy window/curtains in living room, moss to be cleaned in garden and mould and mildew in bathroom. I know I being rather picky, but it such a great place those things just let it down. I would definitely stay again

Great short break in Riftswood @ Ruby

Had a short break here from Thursday to Sunday, Saltburn is a great base for exploring this coast. The accommodation is very close to shops and bars on a very quiet street with ample free parking. Easy access to property as keys in box. Once inside nice layout, could do with a blackout curtain to calm the light from the street light outside the bedroom but didn't bother us that much as we were tired. The lounge area was comfortable but once again curtain badly needed to cover patio doors at back as property overlooked and with lights on leaves one open to being exposed on mid night visits to the loo if not covered up and forgetful like me. Kitchen was well equipped and bathroom comfortable. All things considered this is a lovely apartment and nicely furnished, the curtain requirements are a minor issue. Would recommend a stay here and we really enjoyed our time. Our dog Thea was also really chilled out here as well......thanks.
