For £20 for me and a m8 for one night you can't complain really, but they need to get new beds or mattresses, they were bloody torture, I didn't get much sleep.

The couple who worked there were lovely, couldnt fault them at all.
For a SUPER budget hotel the amenities in the room were surprising. Free tea and coffee and a kettle, a TV. Soap, towels, were all really unexpected but a great addition. Location is brilliant, just off the main centre so quiet enough to be just outside the action for a quiet nights sleep (as long as the people in the rooms next to you SHUT UP!) Over all, pleasant for £17 a night.
The ONLY thing I would say is watch out for bed bugs :'( we found one and a few blood stains on the bedding. (Id sleep in a bin bag it doesnt bother me) But for those who are precious about this, just be aware :) The matress was a bit hard too but like I said, 17 im not expecting a cloud.

the shared shower was filthy and would of taken well over an hour of cleaning to get it up to any standard of use.
Also there was no sink to wash your hands after using toilet so your hands would remain unwashed until you got back to your room.
the bannisters couldn't possibly be sanitised as all guests would have had to use it with unwashed hands after toilet.
Nasty.

Despite not being able to reach this hotel by phone the new landlady was very nice and helpful. Room was adequate for our one night stay and beds comfy. Clean towels provided and tea making facilities (though our kettle didnt work). It was clean but there was no breakfast as stated on the booking and she was waiting for her bar licence to come through so not available for our stay. Only 6 min drive to Pleasure Beach which was our reason for visiting Blackpool.

Would NOT reccomend! Hotel was abysmal! Got judged on my size and weight upon arrival asking if id fit in a standard douvke bed. Room wasn't cleaned prior to use. Toilet still had toilet roll and poo in; Shower had black scum and hair in basin, bin wasn't emptied, tootpaste all over taps. The bathroom stunk of sewage, TV had little to no signal and WiFi could not be connected to anywhere in hotel

Could do with a thorough clean, sorry overhaul, top to bottom. Stayed with my family. 2 adults a child and 2 toddlers.. The front room smell was disgusting.. Very Bad.. The one who greeted us was not very pleasant, don't know what he was smoking but wasn't tobacco smell, The man was not so helpful he tried to give us any old ticket and keys for other people's Bookings, so in the end I just searched for mine on the table, but did show us where the room was, the main manager, was different, quite friendly, and actually had the courtesy to speak to us, sadly we only saw him for about 10 mins the whole time we were there and were on our way out. The hallways /stairs could have done with a clean, sweet wrappers and tab ends on the carpet, but the room was filthy.. Sticky carpets that you stuck to like velcro, and un vacuumed, bits of food and other bits all over, smelly linen, definately not clean, some of the white linen was bright white but still not fresh, didn't use the towels as took my own, main double bed was like it had been used as a trampoline for 20 Yr the springs crunched as you sat and it had more broken and sticking up than not. End of the day it wasn't cheap or cheerful but it got us by as everywhere else was booked up.. I definately wouldn't stay again though. And Not advise anyone else to especially with children. And not without own linen, a vac and a bottle of disinfectant.

It's an old building and the furniture and fittings have clearly seen a lot of use over the years. Despite that, our room was spotlessly clean and provided with plenty of toiletries and sachets of tea and coffee.
Special thanks go to the extremely helpful manager, who went out of his way to provide a room that would fit our disability access requirements - going as far as finding alternative ground-floor accommodation in a nearby hotel and offering us the choice of either.

We were given a bigger room with own loo which was a bonus. The staff/owners very friendly but the place itself is minging. I could list 100’s of negative things but I won’t. You pay for what you get
