A few things let it down: Flashing light in bathroom every time it was switched on would be potentially hazardous for anyone with epilepsy. Door broken on the freezer compartment in fridge. Food wasted. Bedroom absolutely needs working curtains.

There is free overnight parking (6pm - 9am) at the Endeavour Wharf, easy to walk to and spaces even in August. North Yorks council website has a detailed directory. It would be nice to have more, brighter reading lamps in lounge and bedroom. There are no bedside cabinets and the folding table is wobbly. The walk to the bins is rather annoying as there is a back entrance, but maybe there is a good reason that is locked.
