    to be honest there was nothing to dislike

    The apartment was ideal for our one night stay to see Bruce Springsteen at Stadium of Light. Danielle was most helpful and nothing was too much bother

    Excellent communication with owners. Couldn't have been any better. Lovely welcome card and surprise gift, which was so touching considering I had travelled from North of Scotland to see Bruce Springsteen! If I was visiting Sunderland again, this would be my first choice.

    Couldn’t get the heating to work in our room, therefore it was chilly. Water in shower wasn’t draining away properly, therefore had to turn shower off and on to allow water to drain away so as not to flood the bathroom

    Good location. Thankful for last minute booking.

    Slight issues with water pressure in taps in room. 2 pillows would have been better, but they did ask if there was anything they could do to make our stay more comfortable and in hindsight I wish I had asked for this at the beginning of our stay

    Very comfortable stay, very clean room, loved the self checkin and out. Despite no one being present we were well communicated with during our stay and felt very looked after. Hard to get a better location

    I think it would have been nice to have 2 chairs and perhaps a little fold away table that we could have eaten at

    This was a very quaint accomodation, situated close to the sea front and had many nearby amenities. The room was very clean and well presented. It had a mini fridge and a microwave as well as the usual kettle.

    Great difficulty checking in. Despite arriving in the time slot I had specified there was no one to let me in. I rang the number provided on a notice on the front door but the person I spoke to directed me to a side door where he gave me its entry code. I was then directed to a room which was undergoing a “deep clean” having been trashed by the previous occupant. After I complained he realised his mistake, he had apparently thought I was someone “ from the council”, directed me back to the front door and gave me its entry code. Guests arriving at an agreed time after a long journey should not be expected to stand outside making phone calls to gain entry or be mistaken for workmen. The quality of the Mayfield accommodation is badly let down by such a poor reception which has been a great disincentive to book here again.

    Location, room and facilities.

    We didn’t have access to the communal kitchen as it was locked despite being told it would be open.

    The location was great for the train into Newcastle, and nice and close to the beach and restaurants. As we were up there for the Great North Run there was a nice touch of being given a couple of gels for the race.

    We stayed at the Mayfield several times when it was a guest house and although the accommodation is still of the same high quality it felt quite impersonal without the presence of the hosts who always made us feel welcome on arrival, over breakfast, and on departure. The lack of Freeview TV channels was a great disappointment. Microwave oven only 700w.

    The location and accommodation are excellent.

    Despite plates, cutlery etc being available there was no washing up liquid or tea towel for drying. Bathroom adequate but could do with a spruce up.

    Location close to park and beach for walking dogs. Room had fridge, microwave and sink behind wardrobe doors. Perhaps a light in this area would have been good, but good view and it was dog friendly. Plenty places to eat nearby.
