My host was very warm, friendly, welcoming, very trusting & happy to help with anything. It was a very nice, warm, relaxing atmosphere & felt like I was staying with family as I was introduced to a few family members which was nice. My room was clean, tidy & comfortable. I was trusted with the owners keys to get in late after a gig & also to lock up & let myself out after my stay. Breakfast was left out for me to help myself to a variety of cereals, juices, tea/coffee, toast & fruit. I'd be happy to stay again & would of loved to of stayed & looked around Newcastle for longer than I did as everyone was very friendly & helpful. Thank you.

The breakfast is exactly what i have at home cereals and toast so home from home for me. The room was close to the racecourse where I was working. Maria was lovely and I enjoyed talking to her. The room was spot on no frills most comfortable bed I have slept on in a long while. Excellent value for money for the two nights which I stayed. I read some of the other reviews before I stayed my advice is read what is provided and what is not then there will be no misunderstandings. In short if you want value for money a place to get your head down and a breakfast chucked in you will love it. If you want more then stay in a hotel and pay the higher premiums.

Only two issues for me, one could be sorted the other not. 1, At night there was two much light in the room Maria spoke about black out blinds this would sort it. The other was the closeness to the main road meant a lot of passing traffic but that's not something that has an answer or a remedy. I will say that neither of these things would prevent me staying again. I would have preferred to have a tv and tea making things in the room but as I said earlier read what is provided and what is not before booking. I had my lap top so I was fine as for the tea makings Maria was more than happy to make me one.

I think the name Maria's House is slightly inaccurate, as this is clearly Maria's Home. Maria's communication is excellent, she is very house proud and a great host. Her reviews are overwhelmingly positive and I would recommend Maria's House to those content with basic but immaculately clean accommodation.

Better room security would give more peace of mind when leaving valuables unattended. Single serve portions at breakfast would be more hygienic than the communal provisions offered. And very necessary as a COVID protocol.

Breakfast was ok, but nothing fancy, it was cereals & milk. This is a family run business, and the host (Maria) was excellent. Very friendly & eager to help. Would definitely stay there again in the future.

Bedroom could be a bit bigger, but generally it was ok !

Maria was a fantastic host, she has a beautiful home, safe, clean and easy to get into the city centre. Bed was comfy and shower nice and hot. Would definitely stay again.

Maria is very Friendly and helpful, nice location close to the race track. Pleasant light breakfast. WiFi available in the house. Good shower in a shared bathroom.

No tv or tea and coffee in the room but ideal for a quiet overnight stay but it was great value for money.

I think the breakfast was good. The major thing though is the serene environment and a hostess who'd go a mile extra to secure your comfort.....quite worth it.

Can't say...

Cereals and toast, it is what I am used to, I am a simple guy so really like the basics and this was more than adequately catered for. Really felt like home from home.

Really great stay at Maria's house, Maria is so friendly and made us feel very welcome during our short stay. Her property is spotlessly clean, great location with a decent pub in walking distance and quick access to the A1.

Nothing comes to mind.

All amenities were excellent, very clean and Marie is an extremely likeable/helpful / trustworthy host. A definite value for money, ideal location ( amazing Sunday roast close buy). BOOKING.COM PREMIERSHIP!!!!!!.

Absolutely nothing.
