In terms of location this is perfect for either a day or night out in Blackpool and right on the front. The staff were all lovely and attentive but the hotel, especially our room is quite tired and definitely in need of some TLC but we didn’t go with high expectations, the location does make up for this though and I would stay again for the convenience of this but there are better hotels slightly further out.

Didn't like anything, its was disgusting, dirty, mould in the shower, long hair on the sink in bathroom, dirty carpet, windows filthy and covered in cobwebs, dust everywhere, dirty cups. I wish i coould afford to go to another hotel but being an oap that wasn't an option for me. I certainly wouldn't stay there again or recommend it, i will show everyone the photos i took. Even outside isn't inviting its filthy and people stood in the passage smoking drugs, the smell was awful.

The location is great- good sized shower although there should be a small shelf - windows wouldn’t open but as I was only there for one night I didn’t bother complaining- checkin was easy, all in all the hotel looks a bit tired.

Basic
Basic hotel. Comfortable beds. No issues with room. Excellent location. Hallways need attention, dirty carpets and smells weird on second floor at the elevator. The maid service is upon request, which suited us. Reception replace towels, teas coffees etc when required. Overall we were happy for the price paid.

Booked two rooms, when we arrived the carpets at the stairs were very dated, the furniture in the rooms were bare. In one of the rooms it was not cleaned as there were numerous long hairs in the showers, both rooms did not have the usual condiments of tea and coffee in which one had coffee but no milk and the other had milk but no coffee. This hotel has gone downhill since the ibis left. Weve been going here for years however for £345 for 2 rooms for 3 nights it wasnt worth the money. We both agreed we would not stay here the next time we come to blackpool.
