A relaxing stay in Blackpool
Pros:

I had a small, single room overlooking the sea and it was perfect for me! I watched the tide come in and out which I loved. I had dinner at the restaurant which was very good and breakfast which was also good. The hotel is a little away from the crazy part of Blackpool which suited me, but the tram stops right outside so you can get there in less than 10m mins.

Cons:

Nothing!
