Не заселили в отель ночью с ребенком. Хотя были предупреждены о позднем прибытии. Не оказали помощь, не предложили никаких вариантов.

My location was close to my venue and the beach ,the staff was very friendly and helpful.
Pros:

It was very clean, and well mentained

Cons:

The bed was uncomfortable too soft, and caused discomfort.shower was too small, and the shelves over the sink should be higher as I kept knocking my head.
I was unable to watch the news.

Comfy, good storage, nice facilities, would stay again
Pros:

Bathroom was nice and clean, bed was very comfy, large TV facing the bed was great, furniture all matched so that was very appealing.
Fan was lovely, very handy

Cons:

Very small sink, although making it bigger would be hard in the small space so didn’t mind that much, kettle didn’t have a plug near it so had to be moved to be used, nothing too serious, was easy enough once moved to the bedside table.
Very warm, not sure why, we felt bad sleeping with the fan on because it was a little noisy.
The railing along the stairs is small, seemed a little unsafe

Nice hotel in Blackpool
Pros:

A pleasant hotel, better value for money than other hotels in Blackpool. Recently renovated, modern and welcoming. Comfortable room, small but fully functional bathroom. Breakfast is not offered, but there is a kettle in the room for making tea and coffee. It's an unstaffed hotel, but that wasn't a problem for me.
