What excellent place. Booked this for 1 night, staying in room 3. The room was a good size, lovely comfortable bed, very clean, and excellent value for money. Plenty of lovely touches such as toiletries, and hot chocolate sachet, biscuits etc which was lovely surprise. There is a lovely bar on site, had a gin and tonic which was very reasonably priced. In the morning breakfast was lovely, very good quality and delicious. Overall it is fab and very good, look forward to visiting in the future

Although I didn't stay here I was recommended to start my night out here with similar minded folk to myself! Scarlett and her husband Paul were excellent hosts and two of the kindest people I've met in Blackpool. Pre-drinks with an excellent (and free!!) curry or chilli beforehand started out my night wonderfully. Several of us trooped out and thus began a two night outing with the loveliest of people! If and when I can, I will try and stay here if only to enjoy the company!!

This Room was booked as an executive room. It was absolutely filthy. Toilet was dirty, mirrors filthy, carpet hadn’t been cleaned, Kettle still had water in and was dirty. The bedding was stained. The shower didn’t work properly. I had to buy a bottle of bleach to clean it and I also cleaned when I left.

Stayed in room 8 which was a very small double room. It needs a lot of cleaning and updating. There were holes in the walls and wardrobe. The bathroom taps were only a dribble unless turned on fully. The shower was adequate but the plug was disgusting and floating around the base. I had to switch off the shower half way through because the water wasn't draining out of the base fast enough. The bed was comfortable and clean. The furniture was a mismatch. On the good side, the biscuits, drinks and toiletries provided were good and the owners were polite and friendly. Parked on Baker Street carpark which was only a few minutes away. Good location from train station and city centre.

The room was very small even for 1 person. I was there for 3 nights bedding and towels were not changed . room wasn't cleaned on a daily a basis there was only 4 tubs of milk. Only thing that what I thought was good was the price of breakfasts and evening meals
