Avoid
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

Extremely tired and neglected property. Looks dreadful from the outside just as bad on the inside. A true epitome of a tatty backstreet Blackpool B&B. The photos are nothing like the reality.

Pros:

Proximity to winter gardens, cheap, décor about matches the photos. It's Blackpool it's what you would expect. Room and furnishings smelled clean.

Cons:

Area is a dump, accommodation is grubby - needs a fresh coat of paint and new ceiling tiles. The tower fan doesn't work it's too hot. Rooms are pokey - photos are deceptive - which adds to the heat. Needs better ventilation. Towels and linen all stained - overhaul this.

New owners and not the same as the previous time I have stayed.
Pros:

The property is central, rooms are comfortable.

Cons:

We were sent to the calypso to get our keys and book in and there was a lady on reception who was drunk. First of all she said there was no booking for us, then she said there was one room not two and told us a completely different price to what was in our booking. Eventually I went around to her side of the desk and looked in the computer and found our booking as she was far to drunk to know what she was going. She was too intoxicated to be booking people in and be responsible for the reception and guests in the hotel. I think that it was a serious risk to the safety and welfare of the guests. I reported it and to be told she would be dealt with. I think someone being drunk on duty is gross misconduct as they are unfit for their duty. But to my suprise she was still working there the whole weekend. So clearly management did not take it as seriously as what I thought it was. I did have an apology but it’s not acceptable, if this is the sort of behaviour from the staff at calypso then there should be staff booking us in to the hotel Aspire we paid and booked into not a hotel two doors down.
The manager of the Aspire was lovely but I was very disappointed that they did not take this incident seriously which made me very disappointed.
