Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is cozy and clean, with friendly service. The rooms, though a bit dated and on the small side, were still very clean. The location is perfect for exploring the city, but there was a slight funny smell. The dining experience was satisfactory, and there was a need for more variety. The facilities overall were good.
The hotel is conveniently located for Blackpool beach area, offering accessible proximity to most attractions. While the dining experience was pleasant, with delicious meals setting us up well for the day, there were a few issues with the room's maintenance, including poor WiFi and a smoke smell lingering. Service was excellent, fulfilling every request with a friendly touch.
