Pros:

Nothing. We weren’t able to enter the property. And nobody provided any contact details and the phone number didn’t work. Us and another party had to book alternative accommodation

I want a refund.
Pros:

Easy to access, close to promenade.

Cons:

No heating, no WiFi, no tv. Pictures of the room compared to what they are is a total difference, my children sobbed all night they was that cold. Parties all through out the property and cannot get in touch with them at any point. No reception like it states there is and nobody answers the emergency calls, NEVER AGAIN.

Rubbish service
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

The place wasn't even open. I wasn't the only person who had booked and was left without a room. Took ages for someone to answer the phone who theb said it had been taken over by someone else. Luckily I had more money to book another room elsewhere or we'd of had to go back home! Someone did contact me like 2hrs later but that was no good! It was freezing outside!

Clean and good location but poor support from the owners management and no instructions about hearing WiFi or process to
Pros:

Location and clean

Cons:

No contact from property when called them and queried room as emails were all wrong and spent ages checking key safe boxes. A noisy group of woman and children were creating noise till early hours with complaints of bed bugs and some lads were unable to access the property. No written information in rooms of who or what to do for tv or WiFi and had a little girl so wasn’t quite the relaxing break needed.

Disgusting
Pros:

Nothing, was dirty and not well maintained at all

Cons:

We were horrified at the state of the rooms, really run down and dirty. We were part of a big group that stayed and were disgusted to find the beds had bedbugs. We had to get our children up at 1.30 in the morning and find somewhere else to stay. Walking through Blackpool at 1.30am with all our belongings and children. Not impressed at all. The place needs reporting to environmental health!

Disaster
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

The smell in the hallway which lead into the room. Bathroom had a funny smell , which my son would be next too as he was out put on a floor bed .
Not as advertised on the photo as bed was a put up bed and not actual bed.
We decided not to stay and checked out within hours .
