Get what you pay for
Pros:

Good position in Blackpool for being on the sea front and visiting loads attractions. Room very small, clean.

Cons:

Television did not work.
Cleanliness around the property needs improving.
Paid for breakfast- told to be down for 10am. On arrival no one was awake no breakfast available. A phonecall made and someone appeared. Giving praise he did make breakfast which was very disappointing and not eaten by myself and daughter. Cleanliness 0- no tables cleaned. The set up for breakfast didn’t exsist. Shouldn’t be taking bookings if unable to provide service.

Oh dear
Pros:

Staff tried their best to help me but it wasn’t good enough even for that price

Cons:

Air con didn’t work they tried on multiple occasions to get it going but failed. One man was at the desk refusing to stay because even though air con is advertised it’s clearly not available so booking.com you need to deal with this ! I asked for a fan about 3 times later on but I never received it! Terrible cleaning on the carpets and stairs leading up to the rooms it needs a good vac it’s not acceptable. No towels in room on arrival ! Uncomfortable mattress never again !

Pros:

Close to beach and train station was a 10 minute walk

Cons:

Where do I start....firstly no kettle in the room then when I asked for one they brought it without the plug part.secondly no towel in the room witch I only realised after I got out of the shower.
No signal for TV as the TV aerial was broken hence note at front desk.
Main toilet was kinda clean but maybe male clean plus floor boards where lose.
Other than that the place was OK...
