Basic but reflected in price

This is a very basic room. Hot shower, clean sheets and towels. Very dated but that’s reflected in the price. Smelt a little damp but saw this in other reviews so took a can of air freshener and gave it a quick squirt. You can park for an hour outside, big carpark 5 mins away. Lovely cafe ‘greasy spoon’ on the corner for a good breakfast.

Awful would not stay again.

It was a last minute booking. For a superior room. I expected the room to be at least like maybe like one on the website.Their website photos are not what you get. There’s no lounge or anyone about to contact. There was just a lady who took us in when we arrived and a man gave us the keys. She told us the wifi details on the notice board.

The WiFi was not located so we couldn’t log in.
The tv had no WiFi or even a single Chanel. The room needed a good clean and a lot of TLC. Bathroom door didn’t close. Cracks on ceiling Thick dust and spider webs on the lamp shade above the bed. Musty smell.
Bathroom looks like it had some work with pvc slating. Did the job.
Inside The wardrobe was awful to hang clothes in.
Couldn’t sleep. It made me conscious of being crawled on. Constant itching.
Thankfully we only booked for two nights so we didn’t spend much time in it.
On a plus side location was great. And new white fluffy towels. Which we slept on. We Hairdryer ourselves dry.

Basic & Clean Hotel

The hotel is average like most B&B’s in Blackpool. On a whole for £30+ per night it is basic and somewhat clean. Sadly.. our stay featured a sleepless night as a result of a women and three children been allowed in a double one bed room screaming and shouting all weekend. Otherwise it was an ‘ok’ and cheap weekend away!

Nice owner but grubby room. No breakfast.

I booked a Double room-Superior-Ensuite-(Tower View).

The owners were pleasant upon check-in. I had paid around £262 for 2 people for Thursday-Monday.

There is no breakfast.

The room was not what I consider superior and did have a strange smell to it.

It was very dated and doesn't look like it has been refurbished for some time. Please see the photos I took. Yes, they are carpet covered bedside draws........

Even though I stayed for 4 nights, the room wasn't touched or cleaned at all during that period.

It is very dated, had a decent view of the tower, but not somewhere I would go back.

The photos on the website do not really represent how the hotel looks today.

Tired hotel and room

Booked a superior double room. Room and hotel in need of some TLC. Hair in the shower so didn’t use it. Bathroom taps need cleaned. Dirty walls. Room smelled like cigarette smoke despite signs saying guests not to smoke due to highly sensitive smoke detectors. Room looked as if it hadn’t been serviced in a while. Really dusty. Bed was soft and comfortable. Couldn’t open window as handle was very stiff and crumbling so didn’t want to chance it incase it broke! Only “superior” aspect of the room was that it had a view of the tower. On a noisy street (people shouting). There is a photo on the hotel.com website of a lovely communal are/room, we didn’t see if it or be offered access to it.

The bed was super comfy and the owners were super nice people. Room was maybe a little dated but I’m wasn’t worried about that because I only ever used it to sleep and I was out for most of the day and night. Price is excellent for staying here too, I was there 6 nights and got a very good deal on it. Would 100% stay here again if the opportunity arose

We appreciated the friendly reception we received despite this being a late booking. The proximity to the winter gardens was also great for our gig. However, we were very disappointed in the cleanliness. The room was filthy. Dubious stains on bed sheets and towels, detritus under beds. Mould in bathroom. No evidence of the room having been cleaned recently at all. Hence we did not feel comfortable sleeping in the bedding, did not sleep well and sadly were glad to leave in the morning. We cannot recommend this accommodation. Considering the lack of cleanliness and hygiene the room was extremely expensive.

You get what you pay for.

With the price and the details given about the room in the description i wasn't expecting luxury so i wasn't overly upset when i was shown my room. It certainly was 'basic' and i wouldn't recommend that room if your looking for anything other than a place to sleep. It could definitely do with a freshening up but at least the bed was comfy tho a bit creaky! Limited interaction with the owners but they both seemed pleasant and fairly helpful. Wouldn't book that room again but location great so might consider one of their better rooms if my usual hotels not available again.

Cheap,basic,friendly owners,1 night kind of place

Booked the hotel VERY last minute - it’s a very basic, cheap hotel but fine to stay for a night.
Owners very friendly and accommodating.
First arrived and wondered how to check in as no check in desk, bell or anything similar but a quick knock on the door and the owner came out.
We was informed that we had booked the shared bathroom - something I overlooked and noticed as we got there! I was dreading it once I did notice but the shared facilities were clean and appeared to only be shared between 2 rooms so it was okay.
Room very basic but if you want somewhere to just get your head down then you are fine.
Additional touch of the tea/coffee and the little toiletries in the room made things more accommodating.

I would stay again as a last minute somewhere to literally sleep kind of place but anything more, I would look elsewhere.

It’s a cheap, basic, dated hotel but with friendly owners and clean.

New year's eve

Although the owners were welcoming, the cleanliness of the hotel wasn't what we expected. The hotel's photo on website needs up dating as it's an old photo and the hotel appears to now be a different cokour! We were disappointed with cleanliness of our room , it smelt a little fusty there was dust on walls and in air vents. The mattress was also very uncomfortable needs up dating could feel every spring, we used the single quilt off the single bed as a mattress topper. We stayed with other friends who all had issues with their rooms. If it hadn't have been new years eve we would have moved to a different hotel.

Nice area, bad hotel

Check in was easy and pleasant, however things went downhill from there. We had a deluxe room, there were hairs on the pillow, broken lamps, the tv remote did not work, the shower and kettle were covered in limescale. When we went to use the shower after trying to remove some of the dirt from the shower head, it did not work. As we were a group of 7 we went to use one of the other 3 rooms showers to find that none of them worked. The owner advised that evening that the switches had all been tripped.
The rooms were freezing and had no heating in them until we asked if they could turn the heating on. Once we asked the heating was turned on quite quickly to be fair to them, however in our room the heater being on unfortunately unearthed a pair of pants from the back of our heater that did not belong to us, this was disgusting.
Also we paid our balance on arrival, then another payment was taken from my account for a night that had not been charged to us upon check in, this was there error and should have been advised to us as courteous before taking another payment.
The only positive was the location, I have stayed in over 30 guest houses in Blackpool and this is one I would not return to.

Nice little hotel close to town centre

The rooms are small but recently decorated - a new owner in 2014. Loved the Van Gogh prints on the wall. Cosy, clean and with everything you need. Owned by an Indian so no cooked breakfast but a nice continental one. He was very friendly and even went to buy soya milk for me. Limited parking on the road but car parks nearby. V close to the beach and centre, but a quiet road. Can hear other guests TV through the wall but signs to ask everyone to keep the volume down. I would stay here again though my husband prefers somewhere bigger and further from the centre!

Budget accommodation

The triple room offered was not really suitable for 3 adults. The single bed would have been fine for a child but not an adult. The room was on the top floor. The window was locked and we had to ask the owners to unlock it for us. No air-conditioning available. All 3 nights were hot and close and we found the room uncomfortable despite the fact that the owner provided us with a fan on request. Standard of accommodation generally low.

Basic accommodation

We've started there before, en suite last time, and the room was basic but acceptable. We were only half board and could have added on the continental breakfast, which we did last year. Found that rather unsatisfying but they have a deal with a local cafe so you can opt for full English.
The room's size (room 5) was slightly too small for a double, being more suitable as a single.
The kettle was powered by a for gang extension, serving the lamp and other items we may have such as hair dryer, straighteners etc. The extension lead was too short, the flex and gang not able to reach the floor fully. The kettle base was pulled from the drawer twice because of this.
An easy fix that I would hope will be taken on board.
The window was even open or shut s the sash tension needed adjusting.
A basic room with basic facilities and we would consider staying there again.
