Nice clean room, close to the Center and all the attractions

Breakfast is good and plentiful. Dot is very warm and welcoming. Room was cozy and having a mini fridge was handy for cheeky predrinks and juice for when we can back. Lots of little toiletries should you have forgotten any essentials. We would definitely come back as its walking distance to the town and a bargain price.

Our stay the "friends hotel" was a great stay. We couldnt ask for better hosts, dot was so nice, making sure we had everything we needed. Rooms where what to expect for the price. We opted to have our evening meals there. Both breakfast and evening meals where very good, being asked what we wanted the evening before, with plenty to choice to choose. We are already thinking about coming to visit Blackpool again and would definitely choose to stay at this b&b
