Reviews and Ratings
During my stay, I found the hotel to be a pleasant choice with clean rooms and a close proximity to various transport stops. The service was excellent with friendly and helpful staff. However, there were some issues with noise disturbance and finding my way around the hotel. Overall, for a short stay, it was a decent option and I would consider staying there again.
I was over the moon with the staff's friendliness at this hotel in Blackpool, despite the uncomfortable room with a fusty smell and limited TV channels. It was just a shame it was only for one night.
My stay at the hotel was quite a mix of experiences. The room, though basic, had two double beds and plenty of storage space, but the bathroom was a bit small and in need of a deep clean. The staff were all helpful, making it good value for money overall.
The hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were somewhat dated but clean and comfy, with a few issues like a tiny shower area and a TV that didn't work. The service, especially during a health emergency, was exceptional, but the dining experience left much to be desired. The location was superb, close to the town center and nightlife, albeit with some loud military training nearby.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were comfortable, but some maintenance issues affected our stay. The service was top-notch, with friendly and helpful staff. The location was convenient, although noise from other guests was a drawback. The dining options were varied, but some dishes fell short of expectations. Overall, it had its ups and downs.
The hotel is situated in a convenient location with easy access to everything you need right at your doorstep. The rooms were a good size with tea and coffee facilities, a TV, and a comfortable bed, making me eager to return. However, I was disappointed that I couldn't take a shower during my stay, and early check-in wasn't available. The cleanliness could have been better as there was noticeable dust around.
I stayed at this hotel on the 1st floor with a window overlooking a courtyard, so unfortunately, I didn't get a sea view. The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, especially when arranging my mom's room. The room itself was basic but clean; it lacked the sea view but was comfortable for our stay.
I was over the moon with my stay at this hotel, shame it was just for one night. The room was freezing cold due to a broken radiator that clearly needed fixing, but overall, it was spacious and located at the back. The service was very nice, although some issues seemed to stem from the owner's neglect. The location was good, being close to Blackpool Tower and friendly pubs, but did have some dampness issues. The dining experience was average, with some hits and misses in the menu. The facilities were satisfactory, although improvements could be made.
The hotel had airy and very clean rooms with special touches like well-stocked towels, toiletries, and coffee/tea amenities. However, the room was so dusty that I had breathing issues after the third night and encountered a TV covered in pigeon excrement with a bird's nest behind it. The service was quite friendly and obliging, especially from the manager involved in ongoing refurbishments. The location was spot on for our needs, near bars and with lovely staff, but the dining experience was ruined by uncooked food and poor service.
The hotel is in a great location, making it convenient for exploring Blackpool. The rooms, although not very spacious, were sufficient for a short stay, but cleanliness issues were a letdown. The friendly staff at reception were ready to assist, but allocation oversights were unacceptable.
