Pros:

Great location and a clean and tidy room. The check-in staff was very welcoming.

They do have live entertainment in the evening, which was pleasing to see as I've never seen a hotel do that before.

Cons:

The waitresses do sound very bored of their job.
Finding parking near the hotel can be luck of the draw, really.
Breakfast was very average.
The hotel isn't modern by any standards. It looks old because it is old.

In a good location with a tram stop directly opposite so really easy to get in and out of central Blackpool and all of the main attractions.

Lack of hooks to hang stuff up on in the room IE wet swim wear and towels
