Don’t book a single room!
First impression - the whole place stank of cigarette smoke. The owner took me up to my tiny attic room, entered the room before me and rushed to close the blind - very awkward and presumably to hide all the mould on the surrounding paintwork).
The room floor was splattered in paint with unpainted blobs of filler around the door frame. The sockets looked unsafe and there was a nail on the floor by the door.
The owner told me there was no en suite bathroom – only a shared bathroom on the floor below. The room details on Expedia state ‘hydromassage shower head. Bath or shower.’ This is a blatant misdescription.
The stairs up and down to the attic level are VERY steep. Beware if you have mobility issues or vertigo!
The shared bathroom has a shower (with an ill-fitting curtain so the bathroom gets flooded) that’s caked in mould and the shared toilets on both floors have no toilet brush meaning they are caked in other people’s faeces.
You WILL smack your head on the low ceiling above the bed several times! And the mattress is ultra-soft with a clearly defined dent that you inevitably fall into. My back and neck were wrecked after one night. Also no bedside table to place a drink etc.
The hotel is in Blackpool’s gay quarter and covered in the associated paraphernalia, in case that isn’t where you want to be or you don’t want to explain to your kids what all that paraphernalia means. This is also left off the photos - another clear misdescription.
