Unfortunately we have to say the stay overall was not acceptable and we will not be returning there.
Parking right outside. Apartment was spacious. Kitchen well equipped. Host replied promptly when messaged.
The fridge wasn't working. The host advised a new one had been ordered, Checking back on previous reviews in the comments book in the apartment, the fridge was reported as not working properly a month before. Because it wasn't working there was a musty smell throughout. The apartment is on the top floor, and right below there is another apartment the host owns. On a Monday evening right through until 06.00 the following morning the residents there (it turns out they are students) were partying, shouting and singing. Needless to say we got very little sleep! When we advised the host of this, the reply was along the lines of 'thank you for advising us, we shall address the issue with them'. Again, in a previous review, there had been a comment about the noise from below. Cleanliness wise, there was mould in the shower, crumbs in the grooves of the table, marks on the settee etc.

Despite having some criticisms I would consider staying again.
I was able to park right outside the front door. The living/dining room is a good size and comfortable. The kitchen is well equipped. It being a top floor flat means that there is no one above tap dancing on your ceiling which is important in old terraced houses with less than perfect sound insulation.
Cleanliness. The shower was good with plenty of pressure.
The cutlery while functional was rather fragile, The slats supporting the mattresses had a tendency to fall out of position, some of the sockets were broken. I was able to reposition them but they really need fixing properly.

Lovely host but slightly disappointing stay unfortunately!
We enjoyed our stay, and the price was very competitive, which was great. The decor was also lovely, the shower was great, and the beach was very nice. It definitely served the purpose we needed it to: providing accommodation for the week we had in between tenancies.
Parking was also great - we never had any issues getting a spot right outside the property, and this was completely free. The neighbours also seemed lovely. Although it felt a little bit dodgy at times, I felt safe enough to walk around by myself during the day. The kitchen was also very well-equipped, and I was able to cook meals, with the only downside being that the fridge didn't work. The washing machine was also very useful.
I should preface this by saying that we are 3 young professionals, so it was a very stressful time of moving while working, which may have made us a bit grumpier. I chose this accommodation because it was by far the most affordable, and the reviews were great.
Unfortunately, when we arrived, we were quite shocked to find that the beds weren’t made, there were dirty dishes in the sink and towels on the floor. After this, the host quickly sent round a cleaner, which was good, but it was quite an inconvenience having to leave at this point because there wasn’t enough room for her, her 3 children and us in the property at the same time. We also felt that it still felt a bit unclean afterwards. For example, a stained bathroom cord, a mouldy front door handle, some dirty marks on the bedding, etc. We also noticed a strong smell of smoke throughout the property at points, which I think might have been coming through the vents from the property downstairs. Further to this, the toilet smelt like drains quite frequently. I also feel it's worth mentioning that the fridge doesn’t work. All of our food went off very quickly, including the milk that went sour 8 days before its use-by date.
Furthermore, there weren’t any bin bags in the bins and the washing up liquid ran out very quickly - stuff like that makes all the difference when your check-in is delayed, and you're very tired!
It's also worth noting that if you will be commuting/travelling north of the river, it takes about twice as long to avoid the Tyne Tunnel, so this was an added cost I hadn't factored in.
Nonetheless, the host was super lovely and appreciative of my feedback. She had asked multiple times during the stay if things had been up to standard and was very receptive to my comments.
On the whole, it was a very good price, so I can't complain too much. If I were looking for a cheap holiday and a nice beach, I might return, though I would be a little hesitant.

Well equipment accommodation, large shower cubicle.
Quite location with on-street parking, spotlessly clean, great value.
De host was zeer behulpzaam en reageerde steeds snel.
Het sofabed is niet comfortabel voor twee volwassenen, het is smal en hard (onze kinderen lagen wel prima in de twee losse bedden).
De buurt is niet de meest gezellige, we zagen nog dat er een fiets werd gestolen en vuurwerk werd afgestoken.

Simpel verblijf maar prima, de wc liep door en werd snel verholpen. Zeer behulpzaam.
Jammer dat het ontzettend gehorig was en dat de buren erg veel ruzie hadden 😳
Buurt was mwah
