2/10 Poor

DO NOT BOOK

Absolutely appalling! For one it’s false advertising looks nothing like the photos on the advertisement! Got to the room and wow I have no words, pictures to follow! The cleanliness WHAT CLEANLINESS! the only thing clean about this stay was the bag in the bin! I booked this room as a treat for my grandson as he had just finished his SATS and I was absolutely gutted and mortified! Then to top it off we went down for breakfast everyone around me got their breakfasts I was told they forgot about mine. I would have never have booked it I knew then what know now!

6/10 Good

Was ok but needs alot of work

Place is managed by one man Tom who was very nice ...Owner was off to Birmingham as we arrived and another lady disappeared when I spoke to her so not much of a welcome . Place needs work and cleaning tbh ... Basic standards are a must especially in a town with so much competition.. Hotel had two names which doesn't help.Think we were the only ones there but we were the only ones for breakfast ... Took a while to get any response from anyone as place was deserted but got there in the end ...Tom is doing a grand job but needs help imho. Breakfast ok but basic and wasn't asked what we wanted but dining room needs a clean and they did have a new dog so that comes with it's challenges ... Can't fault location for pleasure beach and south shore and was a late booking .. As I said place needs work and there are basics that are missing so those should be addressed if the are to survive a summer session ...Who place needs TLC but after coming to Blackpool now for 30 year then whole town needs some TLC and Cleaning .

Property absolutely filthy not as advertised at all evrrything in the room was disgusting and smelt quiet bad. The staff were friendly but found out of date things at the breakfast and again the things were not clean and we had to ask for things to be washed.

Look elsewhere

Wasn’t really the most clean hotel we have stayed in Blackpool, towels was dirty, window ledge full of dust, bathroom looked like it hasn’t been touched for a while.

Deeply disappointed

What stay. The hotel cancelled with less than 24 hours notice. It spoiled the start of our holiday If we have to give 48 hours notice why should they cancel with such short notice and no explanation

6/10 Good

Helpful

As its under new ownership they're finding their feet, needs a bit of life breathing into the place. Needs new toilet seats and shower heads and a lick of paint. VJ was very helpful and accommodating, he even bought pizza for the kids. I would happily stay again in the future, perfectly situated opposite south pier

8/10 Very good

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

Gurpreet, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

We didn’t stay. Lasted 15 mins. It was dirty. Really dirty. Mattress was just spring. Had a big wet patch in the carpet. Smelt musty. Carpet was stapled together like odd ends of carpet. Light fittings hanging off. Couldn’t even give it 1/10 it was really bad.

8/10 Very good

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 😀
