The room was not fit for paying customers. Loose wires, peeling wallpapers, filthiest place I've ever seen. Landlord did not care at all how it looked or how he looked. The view was good and pet friendly.

What u see in the picture is most definitely not what u see on arrival,first impression r everything and this place was not good,it was that bad we didn’t even stay.
It was dirty when you entered. Lounge area was in a state of disrepair. Room was disgusting mould in shower cubicle. Bathroom was filthy.the pillows should be thrown in the bin as they were paper thin. You sat on the mattress and you could feel the bed base never tried the breakfast as I stayed somewhere else this place should be shut down 👇

Excellent location
Typical blackpool hotel this could be a greatvplace with some investement and a cleanup the location as we were visiting the pleasure beach was superb it also wasnt too noisy and the landlord was very accommodating and a pleasure to deal with we were given a fan due tonthe heat over the weekend and offered a second cooling unit if required given a space to park vith vehicle's too which is a huge plus for the location overalln8d stay again 😀
Was a very pleasant stay, staff very friendly, all needs was 5*.
They did my daughter's birthday a beautiful day. And for sure next time I'll be back to Blackpool, definitely I will book them again.
Thanks for everything

The owner bj couldn't be more helpful.
The breakfast was good.
However the service was a little un organised. Due to inexperience.
Me and my family felt so welcome
