The staff member who checked us in was fantastic, comfy bed, good size room - could have done with a comfortable chair or two. However, the bathroom was mouldy with broken tiles, carpet was ripped & lifted, tv was either red or green tinged, the entry smelt strongly of cigarettes continuously.

The hotel could do with a revamp , one of the lifts were not working. Carpets were filthy with stains and the corridors leading to your room were very musty smelling unclean and overall shabby. Would give this a 2*

Great bargain hotel! Fab location

For £64 in Blackpool we weren’t sure what to expect! But great little spot on north pier with a full sea view beach view! Above Turtle Bay but surprisingly quiet! Bed clean and fresh thank goodness! Bathroom could have just done with a deep clean but for £64 we were happy for the evening! Staff on reception lovely and helpful Thanks all

Big, but outdated!

The room was very big and had an ocean view. The windows were stuck closed and so we could not have any ocean breeze. The windows were so old and condensed that we could not really see out of them. The mattress had a pee stain and smelled of it. We noticed this the last morning, as a sheet had come off.

The photos of the property on the website are very deceiving. The public areas of the building are delapidated and lots of crumbling plaster and very worn and dirty carpets. No guests in bar and public areas so no intimate feel or atmosphere

Paid for breakfast £10 each , not a lot of choice also it's 7-9am , dead on 9am everything is cleared away , i personally think this is too early not sure why it can't be 10.30 close. also should have paper cups at the side of machine to get a drink whenever. couldn't fault the room or the location.

Me and my fiancé are not people who like to complain, but we will not be going back to this hotel. It’s dirty and smelly, around the lift foyer areas were the worst and the carpet was thick in mould. It smell like maggots, or something was mouldy or rotten it made our stomach turn, lucky the room didn’t smell this way but the room was unbelievably hot with no AC or a window that could be opened. We asked about the AC and if it could be looked at, we were told they are having a renovation at the end of the year so they are not fixing anything. After speaking to other guests, this has been the normal response for 2 years. But even if they are having a renovation it’s not acceptable to leave guests in a room that you can’t open the window for fresh air. The entrance to the hotel was just covered in cigarette ends and just pure dirt.The bathroom wasn’t great, mould in the shower etc. it just wasn’t a good experience for us, we won’t be returning.
