The staff were absolutely lovely, went out of their way to make our stay special, and the room was clean with all the essentials. We even had tea and coffee facilities! Total gem for the price.
The décor looked like it hadn’t seen a trend since the ‘80s, and the bathroom could probably host its own horror film. Seriously, shared facilities need some TLC!

Had an amazing time with friends! We explored the nearby Opera House Theatre and had a blast at the funfair. The vibe was great, and the location made it easy to hit up all the attractions. Just a heads up, some rooms might need updating, but overall it was a fun stay!
We dealt with some noise issues at night which made it hard to sleep, but it didn't ruin our trip. Just be prepared for potential late-night disturbances.

great proximity to central attractions and dining options
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay with a warm welcome and delightful breakfast that was cooked to perfection, making it the ideal spot to recharge after a day exploring the nearby Winter Gardens and Coral Island, which are both just a short stroll away. the hotel serves as a comfortable base for a single traveler like me who loves to wander around cities.

A fantastic family room with great privacy, though it could benefit from a TV for the adults. Staff truly stand out, providing a thoughtful gift bag during a stressful time. cleanliness left room for improvement. there was evidence of debris under the bed and an outdated shower mat. The atmosphere was enjoyable, and the secure parking option was a big plus for bikers. The pool table and family-friendly music added to the ambiance, making the stay memorable despite some cleanliness issues.

The location was a major highlight, with easy access to the beach and nearby shopping. the accommodation showed signs of neglect, with the shower room needing thorough cleaning and the overall decor feeling worn. Although the staff were friendly and responsive when asked for additional towels, the presence of leftover trash diminished the experience significantly.

It was a great match for a holiday in Blackpool with a reasonable price. The room was filthy, and the paint was falling off the walls.

Great location and friendly staff
I recently stayed for a night in a Double Room with shared bathroom, and I was pleasantly surprised. The location is perfect for exploring, and the staff was welcoming and accommodating. The room was clean and comfortable, although I would have preferred more pillows for a better night's sleep. the bathroom needs some attention to improve the overall experience.

The shared areas had a charming vintage décor that reminded me of my grandmother's home, making it feel cozy and inviting for a night out. Accessibility was fine, though some areas could use a bit more attention.
Improve room cleanliness and maintenance overall.
