Everything was ok until we tried to use the toilet and shower both were blocked we couldn't use them so we had to leave the hotel and find another place!
Had wonderful stay at this hotel. Comfortable deluxe room. Staff was welcoming and helpful. Walking distance to Blackpool tower and central pier. Convenient city centre location with shopping centre and parking nearby. Location just opposite to winter garden. Loved stay definitely coming back again.
Most upsetting part was my daughter wanted to stay here purely because there was a games room with a pool table, air hockey, and two arcade games and we were then told on arrival as we told him this that the Games room had been removed over a year ago and the picture should’ve been removed from Hotels.com, but they hadn’t been.
Before we even arrived with the cost of the room, we knew this would not be high-quality accommodation. At the end of the day the bed was comfortable enough and the bedding was clean. The towels had seen much better days and the one in bathroom had staining from overuse. The shower worked fine as did loo & sink.
The entire property is rundown and in need of a good overhaul and maintenance, but we expected this with the Price. Unfortunately, the smell of weed from someone smoking was present when we arrive back on the Sunday evening. Very simply if you are looking for an extremely budget place to stay in Blackpool and you don’t care about Ayers and Grace this is perfect for you as it is right near the town centre about a 10 minute walk from the pier and Blackpool Tower.
Great location a few minutes walk from the main high street and sea. Parking local. Service from landford friendly. Bedding clean and comfy bed but Unfortunately room very, very dirty, bedframes, skirting, sink. Handrails really dirty and dirty toilet and bathroom with lots of black mould. Reluctant to have a wash due to dirty facilities.
Vale pelo preco. Se procura por uma estadia barata , esse e o local. Staff e atencioso. Possui uma cozinha e lavanderia . Nao espere luxo no quarto . Bem simples porem limpo com banheiro privativo . Blackpool e uma cidade perto do mar , pequena com um shopping . Fica a 1 h de Liverpoool.
