“The hotel stands out for its ideal location near Funny Girls and the train station, providing easy access to Blackpool's attractions. I found the quirky decor adds a touch of character, particularly appealing for those seeking a less generic stay. While some areas show their age, the clean, comfortable rooms and the availability of board games create a welcoming, budget-conscious environment.”

The location was acceptable for my needs.

The water pressure in the shower was EXTREMELY poor. Barely a trickle came out. I found stains on the bedding cover. There was also a nail varnish stain on the bed sheet. I am very annoyed about it.
