Terrible

I don’t like leaving bad reviews. But the room was terrible not the room I booked in the photos . Went to speak to reception but got absolutely nowhere with her . I looked a room with window to floor two chairs and a table and got a tiny box room with the cupboard doors missing as room to small to open the doors . The room was not cleaned once in our 3 night stay . We never got any new towels put in the room or even the bin emptied . The window did not open the skirtings were covered in dirt and dust and mold all over the toilet and shower area . Nice and close Blackpool centre all the entertainment beach and bars

Next to "most things" ie Blackpool tower" etc and not far from " Blackpool North" railway station. BUT very small bedroom(one side of bed was AGAINST the wall). Very noisy because the "lift" was ouside our room. Noisy doors "slammers"...BUT worth the £97? Ish for the location. Good luck STILL 3.9+ star's
