“What I found notable about this property is the location - right in the middle of the action; and how the hosts seem genuinely invested in ensuring a good stay. It appears some parts of the building require renovations, which are supposedly underway; however, based on what I've read, the rooms are comfortable. It's a down-to-earth choice for a Blackpool visit.”
