A nice toom - eventually
We got a good deal for a 3 night midweek stay. Check in was quick, staff friendly. Got to our room on 4th floor and it absolutely stunk of what smelt like cat urine. I asked for a new room and was given a lovely premium room overlooking South Bay. When we went out for a walk later , we checked out where our first room was , and could see piles of seagull poo right on the window ledge and we are assuming that's what the smell was. Hoping they have sorted it!

Not so grand
So we checked into the grand hotel at Scarborough about 4pm and were given our room key room 441 4th floor . We got in the room it was really cold and felt damp the double bed was a 3/4 bed and the small window looked down on an inner brick wall . The radiator would not turn on and the pipes were cold . Next I checked the bathroom to find the smallest square shower I ever saw complete with cracked shower tray with ceramic tiles half missing and sharp edges . Back down to reception to que for 20 mins . I explained the problems and told them that my husband had copd and asthma and there was no way we could stay in a cold room. The lady on the desk said she didn't think there were any more available rooms. Another room was allocated so we trudged back up to the 5th floor room 523 . We walked in and again it was cold and draughty there was no central heating just a small poxy oil radiator. The toilet had piss stains all over it , shower was minging. Sharp broken plastic on the wall above the sink . The window sills had a lining of mold and holes and pieces of wood missing from the window frames . The entrance door was cracked . At this point I saw red mist .Back downstairs with the luggage to que for another 20 minutes .This time I asked for the duty manager. We were sent into a side room to wait and eventually the lady came , she wanted to fob us off but I made her sit down while I explained the poor state of the rooms we had been allocated and asked her to look at the photos
