Only stayed one when I booked for two the window was broken made a noise all night so we left at 6 am the room was tiny not big enough for two people. We had two hand towels to get a shower with. The worst hotel I’ve ever stayed in

Superior double with sea view, room 19. Bathroom - smelt of urine, ceiling light fitting hanging off, sink not secure, mouldy shower curtain, shower disgusting, bath towels paper thin. Bedroom - wallpaper hanging off, water streaks down the walls, mould on the ceilings, skirting boards filthy. Window - lock broken, filthy window, could hardly see through. Smelt so bad.
I have nothing nice to say about this place.

Well where to start.. upon arrival we were checked in early and shown to our room. We booked a superior double room sea view. The room was tiny and the window catch was broken so it didn’t shut properly. It was blowing a gale outside and was cold and noisy. The owner agreed to swap our room but no sea view . The replacement room although was bigger had 3 beds in it the cleanliness was the same dirty walls and hairy skirting boards. Pulled out the single bed to close the curtains to find it fill of rubbish .. a bun and wrapper an inhaler under the double bed just generally needs a good clean and lick of paint. The carpets are all frayed and need replacing. We were disappointed because we booked going off of the pictures it looks so nice. And when you walk in it’s clean and tidy but to then be shown to a room that clearly is dirty how can you be proud to do this. Could be a nice place to stay just needs some tlc.

Was what you expect in Blackpool, we were upgaded to a larger room so suspect some are small, was clean bedding and nice comfy bed, bathroon could do with a little tlc but didnt affect us cos we just wanted somewhere to sleep, no musty smells infact it smelt really pleasant, if your not looking for luxury this is the place.

Extremely disappointing, it’s not what it advertises, holes in the ceiling, rooms dusty, showers rusted, was given dirty towels, was told we had to be in by 12am. First room offered had no heating, door handle was hanging off and damp. Wish I’d took photos

Room wasn't that great there was a blacket/throw on the bed that had hairs on and wallpaper around the window was peeling off and the cups for the tea and coffee wasn't clean it was old looking not updated like others...

PLEASE DO NOT BE FOOLED!! THIS HOTEL DOES NOT EVEN DESERVE TO BE CALLED A HOTEL!!
Me and my husband needed a place for the night as we had been travelling on the road for a long time. We only booked this hotel as the check in time was till 11.30pm. When we arrived the person who checked us in was quite rude. He asked us what we was doing in Blackpool in such a demeaning manner. He also asked where we were coming from which came across very inappropriate.
The room is nothing as pictured. I wish I had read the reviews as many people have said the same. The room was a box room; the state of the room was disgusting. The room smelt of damp. The toilet light did not work and the bath as a whole was extremely tiny that i felt claustrophobic.
We couldn't even find the person after to tell him that the light wasn't working.
We returned the keys and left. I would have much rather slept in the car then to have spent the night in such a room.
Yes the hotel is opposite the sea but what's the point when the entire atmosphere of the hotel and room feels like something out of the film Psycho?!
DON'T BE FOOLED BY THE PRICE!! I'VE PAID THE SAME AMOUNT AND HAVE GOTTEN AMAZING ROOMS!!!

Terrible!
We was given a used room!!!
Someone had already been inside! One of the bed was was not made , Dirty towel was on bed , used tea cup!
! It was SHOCKING !
No one was at reception to talk to. Because It was late , we asked for a late check in not a USED room!!.
-
Also the mattress weren’t comfy at all!, the room was dirty! , towels were dirty, floor was dirty and shower was horrible.
- the next morning when we spoke to the manager, he said the beds are new. ..NOTHING ELSE!
-We didn’t want to argue so we just left and thought we’ll just leave a review.

The room was small and very basic but for around the £30 mark we couldn’t really complain. Good location on the sea front.

location was the main good part of this hotel. The rooms were awfully small with stains on the bedding. The rooms walls are very thin and this caused a huge problem at night bc we hardly slept and oh the mattress had a spring feeling on the back, very discomforted. The owner was arguing with this wife at 9am as we were getting set to check out. We left behind sliders (sandals) in the bathroom but we went back to look for them, they said they were in the bin? Not about the money but why lie as my mrs tied the bins and left them to aside. Unless the sliders slid across the floor untied the bag and slid in! Overall this place is a 2/10. We stayed for 4 days and was terrible not even an okay. Whilst sat in the lounge the owner was always arguing with other customers which is okay but ruins the mood lol. Anyways thanks for reading and thank me bc this hotel is quite disappointing, before it was too late.

Booked at the chimes for a long weekend with the family the reception we got was really friendly if we needed anything all we had to do was ask. We were also helped with getting our car parked safely for the weekend at the guest house next door and it was not over priced. It's not the Ritz but if your on a budget it's just the place for people to go to. We have booked again for later in the year as well. Thanks for making us all welcome.

This was a great location as it was right in the middle of the promenade. Rooms were small but adequate & the owner was lovely, nothing was a problem to him. Would stay again!

as we arrived we couldn't enter the hotel as the door we're locked.there was no host to check us in we had to wait up to 5 minutes . The front door was a pain to open with the silly looking keys. The room desperately needs a bit of tlc as the wallpaper was chipping away there was stains on the front of the bed , the carpets were disgusting had black marks all over ,there was rubbish in bedside drawer , there was no milk and tea provided and the tv was too high up you felt like you were breaking your neck to watch it . The sea view we're lovely . And why have a dining area with no breakfast facilities so that was 88 pound wasted In my opinion. we was in room 5 also when we checked out there was no host to give our key too so I left them on counter with a hand written note and parking omfg! Stay clear it's impossible to park had to pay in a car park several streets away

Nice hotel and very friendly and helpful, close to beach and walking distance to everything I needed.

Nice enough place. The room we were given was a family room 1double bed & 1 single bed for my daughter, the room was very small so for a 1 night stay was adequate, but wouldn’t have been able to stay more than 1 night in this room, but overall stay was ok, plus didn’t get a breakfast with price but wasn’t a major problem

We booked a Sea View room and after walking to the 2nd floor, with bad knees, we entered a small room with an even smaller bathroom. Half of the beds head board was blocking the window for our sea view. The room was dirty with shoe marks on the wall by the bed. The room is in need of a paint job and the bathroom shower broke first time we turned it on. Our bed was not made at anytime during our 4 night stay and our coffee cups were not changed during that time either. Even though it was a non-smoking room, we could smell cigarette smoke coming from other rooms.

Felt like I was staying at someone's house , felt like I was intruding on them . Room was a bit squashed . Didn't want to do breakfast

When booking online i chose a sea view small double room. When i arrived i had a tiny room at the back of hotel with a view of an alley way full of old mattresses. The only way the reception staff could compensate was to give us an hour later check out time. Room was always cold. Windows didnt lock. Bedding was ripped. Cleaners came while we were out and had moved our stuff to get the dirty towels. Bed was comfortable but room was so small one of us were stuck up the wall. Shower was like a tap. Was offered continental breakfast for £4.50. No hairdryer.
