Terrible..SCAM!!

We turned up at the correct check in time, no one was at the property, we called and knocked the door but no answer. We had to check in to another b&b and pay again! Absolutely shocking, we had our 6 year old with us as well! I want a refund otherwise I will take it further, I have tried to contact yourselves but no response!!!

Booked 1 night bed and breakfast, when we arrived was told breakfast is not now available, had to ask for towels, then told there was only 1 small hand towel available for a family of 4! no bin in room, room decor very dated and abit grubby, stained carpets and walls etc. Also as soon as we entered the room my 6yr old son picked up a small knife blade which had been left on the table. Overall not the worst hotel but certainly not the best, won’t be staying there again unfortunately.

shabby 'hotel'

Just not a nice place to stay...its one saving feature was it was near to town and south pier. Room cramped...squeezed in double and single. Bed was actually comfy though! Chest of drawers falling to pieces. Little touches missing...two cups for three of us, no teaspoons. Bathroom asked us to place dirty towels on floor....there were no towels and none were mentioned when we were taken to our room. No personal touches...saw someone on arrival and that was it. Floors uneven in bathroom, hooks sticking out on walls...just totally inadequate.

You don't go to blackpool to stay in your room!

Stayed overnight for the fireworks for what we paid it was great. Stayed in room 5 plenty of room, beds were comfy and the bedding was clean. Free WiFi and Paul the owner was friendly and polite. The hotel doesn't do breakfast but there are plenty of cafes around to choose from. It's a 5 minute walk from the car park and the promenade excellent location and was quiet at night. Even got a view of the tower!. Bargain as you don't go to blackpool to stay in your room ! Will definitely use again!

The condition of the reception and bedroom was terrible. In the bedroom, each wardrobe was falling apart, the beddings on the bed were dirty and terrible. The bedroom carpet was dirty, and the bedroom was cold, even after telling the person in charge that the bedroom was cold, nothing changed. The only good thing about the hotel is that, it is less than 5 minutes walk to the beach. However my friend, family and I will not stay there again. Infact we feel cheated, and would like most of our money back As the rooms should be worth £10 per night, not £59.

One disappointment after another!

As directed in the confirmation email we were told to call and make arrangements for checkin. Nobody answered the phone all day and we had to cut our visit with family short to make sure that we didn't get shut out for the night. There was no wifi, no food anywhere onsite, the whole place is rundown and falling apart. Paint is peeling off the walls, there was mold in our shower and the sheets were dirty. This place was disgusting. The guy who checked us in was nice but that's the only thing this place has going for it. Definitely not worth what we paid.
