Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers decent-sized, comfortable rooms with very friendly and helpful staff. I truly enjoyed my stay and would definitely return. The bed was comfy, making for a pleasant rest.
The hotel was a bit disappointing overall. The rooms were clean but in need of decoration and refurbishment, lacking in warmth and comfort. The service was friendly but not exceptional. The location was convenient but had some cleanliness issues. The dining experience was hit or miss, with some positive and negative aspects.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were a bit disappointing as they felt like paper between the back of the property with mold and broken furniture, but the location was unbeatable with easy access to all Blackpool's amenities. The service was friendly but had some issues, and the dining was subpar with limited breakfast options.
