A Reasonable Stay, But Could Have Been Better
Pros:

The room itself was fairly nice, and it was overall fairly reasonable value for money, with an en-suite shower room, a single bed, two bedside cabinets, TV, and also tea, and coffee making facilities as well.

Cons:

The location of the room was at the top of a flight of stairs, and just outside an entrance door to other rooms, so it was fairly noisy with other people coming and going regularly, at all hours of the day and night.

It's also not really the hotel's fault, but the guests in a neighbouring room, seemed to be part of a group who were in a number of rooms, so there was a lot of movement between their various rooms, sometimes throughout the night, until the early morning, and also some noise from them as well.

Pros:

Staff were lovely
Bed was comfortable
Room was big

Cons:

You can hear everything, doors opening and closing other people talking like the full conversation, there is 0 privacy even in your room as you can hear every flush and everything going on in the entire hotel

ABSOLUTELY THE WORST HOVEL IN BLACKPOOL
Pros:

That we left a day earlier than planned due to the absolute disgusting room and staff. They can barely understand English which made it very hard to put our issues across to them with a good outcome. DONT STAY HERE (unless you don't mind a hostel at hotel prices) Paid our deposit on booking.com but still bad to pay an extra £20 on arrival and another £10 incase we made a stain on the sheets! Although given the state of the room is this £30 classed as a donation!? 0 out of 10!!!

Cons:

The smell of the hotel
The staff
The cleanliness issues
People living/smoking in their rooms
Doors banging all hours of the night
Kids screaming all day/night
Total NIGHTMARE!

Was on third floor when Iv got mobility issues so struggled also there was blood stains on the bathroom floor also there
Pros:

The woman on reception was helpful that’s it

Cons:

Was on third floor and iv got mobility issues so struggled

The shower took 10mins to heat up

Was red stains on bathroom floor and partner tried to see what it was and it looked like blood

It looked like someone had been sick down the cupboard in bedroom

The towels had stains on and iv come out in a rash on face

You had to get up to turn tv off cause the remote wasn’t working that well

Worse hotel we’ve stayed wont be staying again

Good Value Stay In A Good Location
Pros:

The price of my stay represented very good value for money. The hotel is in the North Shore, so it's still close to the main attractions, but far enough away from the town centre, to make it fairly quiet as well. The hotel is also on the Promenade, and very close to the beach as well. The room itself was very well set up, it had a very comfortable bed, an en-suite shower room, a TV, a bedside cabinet, a chair, and a very handy shelf, which contained the tea making facilities as well.

Cons:

There was some noise from other rooms, but it wasn't very loud really, and it only happened now and again during my stay anyway.
