Great little stay
Pros:

The location of The New Apollo Hotel is within the Central Holiday District and is the perfect location for what Blackpool has to offer between Central Pier and North Pier.
Very comfy beds from the brand 'Emma', that was a nice surprise and I slept soundly each night of my stay.
Communication in getting a text with the codes on the day of your stay was perfect, and very handy to refer back to when coming and going from the hotel.
The house keeper was lovely and asked if there was anything that I needed for my stay like toilet rolls, extra towel etc.
The shower was very easy to use and kept a good and steady pressure. It was a nice power shower and had various different streaming modes to use if wanted.
The room itself was great and had a clean kettle for hot drinks. It also has a TV with Netflix, Disney+ etc if you wanted that. The WiFi was brilliant, with great signal and speedy to use.
I loved that it was electronic key pad entry in to the hotel and your room, as there was no chance of misplacing the keys then. If you did have a problem getting in to the hotel or any other matter, the owner, Tony, was just a phonecall away.

Cons:

User error for the coded entry system. I was trying my finger to wake the keypad up to type the code. You needed to place your hands palm over the keypad to wake, once I knew that, I was a whizz at working it.
There were plenty of drawers to put your clothes but nowhere to be able to hang clothes unfortunately, that's the only downside I can think about my stay
