10/10 Excellent

Osita, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

I got a phone call from someone asking what time we were checking in as jo one would be there to check us in. This was nit the owner but was helping him out. Upon arrival we got sent a few different room numbers and and codes to gain entry. The front door was not secure. When we did finally gain entry to a room the would not lock and it was filthy and unmade. The whole property is a debacle. We left without staying and found other accommodation as did not feel safe. This property should be removed from the site. I have applied for a refund but doubtful i will get one.

Deep cleaning needed

Place with great location . Close to pleasure beach. This place need deep cleaning and refreshing all rooms.
2-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Found property. No response from ringing bell. Entered through front door which was partly open. Shouted, couldn't find anybody present inside but there was a dog shut in a cupboard under the stairs with door ajar. Eventually a couple, apparently living in the property, told us that there had been no hotel business there for years. Whole place is dirty, dingy, rundown, smelly and we wouldn't have stayed even if it was open. Yet it is still listed in Expedia - IT SHOULD BE REMOVED. We didn't pay in advance but anybody who did would probably lose their money.
Peter, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

paul, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

The filthiest hotel i have ever been too. I walked straight back out and booked another hotel
lee, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

I have asked Expedia to remove this property from their site. On arrival was taken to a room and somebody was sleeping in the bed in the room allocated for me. I was taken to another room which can only be described as unsafe and filthy the toilet had been used and not flushed And the curtain was hanging off the rail. The carpet was also filthy with debris all over a word of warning Expedia are only limited in what they can do they were unable to affect a refund I booked in at a better hotel around the corner. I recognise this is a cheap hotel But there are minimum standards
stephen, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

Property absolutely filthy not as advertised at all evrrything in the room was disgusting and smelt quiet bad. The staff were friendly but found out of date things at the breakfast and again the things were not clean and we had to ask for things to be washed.
Jordanne, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

The owner bj couldn't be more helpful. The breakfast was good. However the service was a little un organised. Due to inexperience. Me and my family felt so welcome
Mark, 3-night trip

6/10 Okay

Helpful

As its under new ownership they're finding their feet, needs a bit of life breathing into the place. Needs new toilet seats and shower heads and a lick of paint. VJ was very helpful and accommodating, he even bought pizza for the kids. I would happily stay again in the future, perfectly situated opposite south pier

Deeply disappointed

What stay. The hotel cancelled with less than 24 hours notice. It spoiled the start of our holiday If we have to give 48 hours notice why should they cancel with such short notice and no explanation
Sharon, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Excellent location

Typical blackpool hotel this could be a greatvplace with some investement and a cleanup the location as we were visiting the pleasure beach was superb it also wasnt too noisy and the landlord was very accommodating and a pleasure to deal with we were given a fan due tonthe heat over the weekend and offered a second cooling unit if required given a space to park vith vehicle's too which is a huge plus for the location overalln8d stay again 😀
Roy, 2-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Hotel is dirty smells it's unsafe got took to the top floor in the attic room was cold bedding was filthy so asked for another room and got shown it it was basically a crack den only not advertised as one it's horrendous I wouldn't let a rat stop there neither mind a human being I would advise anyone to not stop here if the was a minus star I would give it minus 1000
