Guest Reviews
- Guest (10/5): -
- Mr william (5/5): - Good location beds comfortable. Good breakfast Smells damp no central heating slow service
- Chris (3/5): On your head be it! - Breakfast (hot) Parking (secure) Price (cheap) Lack of cleanliness, toilet bowl loose, toilet seat loose, teabags etc not replenished, only offered English breakfast - nothing else. Had to ask for towels.
- marjorie (4/5): Our stay was pleasant just spoilt by having no hot water - Breakfast was fab The fact that we had no hot Water for the whole of our stay,had to boil water from kettle to have a wash,showers were a no no due to no hot water.it would have been nice to have a top up of milk tea coffee etc each day.
- Rachel (3/5): Not good - Nothing It wasn’t very clean and beds cheap and uncomfortable
- Thomas (8/5): -
- BigAndy1271 (7/5): -
- Susan (8/5): Everything you needed nothing fancy. Staff very helpful - Quiet
- Joe (10/5): Fab place to stay - All was a great experience Na
- Faith (6/5): Lovely stay and need the trams station. - The breakfast Needs updating.
- David (3/5): Spent all day out as didn’t want to stay in room any longer than we had to. And couldn’t wait to get home. - The staff were friendly but very lackadaisical. That’s just our opinion. I would not recommend it to anyone else and definitely wouldn’t stay there again. The property was very dated and could do with some improvements. The bed sheet was ripped in several places. The breakfast wasn’t as expected for a full English and most of it was cold or greasy. The rooms could do with improvements and cleaning properly.

- Trevor (5/5): Staff very pleasant and bed clean and comfy - Breakfast Good and location Good Hotel a very dated and room small
- justin allen (7/5): -
- Jade (4/5): - No heating on when arrived to room. Heating put on at 10pm. Found hairs in the bed linen. Beds changed at 11.15pm.
Hairs found on milk jug. No hair nets worn by staff. Dirty clothes and messy hair also. Greeting when we arrived by a man was shocking just asked what we wanted for breakfast.
Staff went into room to conduct maintenance without permission when we had left the hotel to go on a walk.
No bar or entertainment on in the evening. Furniture untidy.
When we complained at 11.15pm owner said if you are not happy go find another hotel. We are 67 and 62.
- AMD 😄 (7/5): - Staff were lovely and friendly, and the breakfast was perfect. Property itself was a bit dated and could do with a proper deep clean and freshening up. The bed was comfy but very squeaky.
- allan (8/5): - Breakfast good staff very polite and helpful location is a bit to far away from the town centre
- jeffrey (2/5): Poor hotel - The staff were very helpful, breakfast was good The hotel was very dated, the room smelt. We left after one night due to the noise all night long. The floor boards all squeaked along with the bed.

- Myfanwy (8/5): - Lovely staff. Owner was cheerful and friendly. Very accommodating.
Went out of their way to make sure hubby had a very early breakfast.
Room could do with a bit of updating but for what we paid it was very good value.
- Neil (7/5): A great stay 😍😍 - Great value for money, lovely breakfast and great host too. A little dated but clean and a good location
- Darryl (5/5): Adequate, but only just as it was only just for 3 nights, had the service been up to scratch a tip would have been give - The dining room was pleasant the breakfast was good the only criticism was the shower in the room didn’t work and there was no hot water. The bar was out of action so we couldn’t get a drink or socialise.
- Denise (8/5): -
- Peter (6/5): - You get what you pay for
- REGINA (10/5): - Very friendly couldn't do enough for you
- Chris (7/5): -
- Alan wishaw (8/5): -

- Stephen (8/5): - Could do with a good clean, mainly carpets. But bed comfy (but noisy) hot water is luke warm after running tap for 10 mins to get it luke warm, best b+b breakfast i have ever had thou and on that note i will be returning
- martin (8/5): short walk to prom from the guest house nice stay - location was perfect room was ok and came with a breakfast the staff were good was not sure of who was running the place they let me stay another night in the same room as i wanted to vist fleetwood no fuss or problems there take note for the over 50s they have a stairlift i didnt need it but nice to know its there three members of staff but not sure who was in charge i saw some bad reviews on here but its for the over 50s so its a bit dated but to me a nice home from home if you want modern stay somewhere else but i bet you will pay a hell of a lot more than this place for the money its very good and breakfast as well
- Julie (3/5): - The people were nice and freindly and helpful, secure parking at back of hotel was good which makes my review hard to do but I have to be honest No bar
No comfortable seating
Quite a way from north pier
Could do with a good sort out and update and deep clean
We only stayed 1 night instead of 2 as I wanted to go home left late sat night didn't want to stay another night
Overall not worth the money sorry
- Valerie (10/5): - Staff were amazing will definatley return Nothing
- John (10/5): - As it was an over 50’s Hotel it really was excellent for the price, the manager and the staff we met could not do enough for you, nothing was to much to ask, the breakfast was lovely and well prepared, coffee and tea really hot. My wife was in a wheelchair so we where given a ground level room with access through the back with zero stairs.
- Marie (10/5): - It was very good and all the staff was very friendly
- Guest (9/5): Very friendly, comfortable beds and value for money - Very friendly, close to transport link
- Columbine (8/5): -
- Mark (7/5): - The staff could not do enough. Very welcoming and helpful throughout.
Thank you Only the location as was further out than expected. However that was down to us having to book last minute. The tram stop is at the end of the road so no problems. We had to walk each night as the trams were not running, but again no fault to the accommodation.
- Adam (8/5): - You felt at home.
- Neil (2/5): - Place needed a good clean , carpets, bathroom everything
- Jo (6/5): - It was ok for the price rooms in need of modernisation
Cleanliness was a bit hit and miss
- Dabell (1/5): A Filthy Stinky B.B. - Nothing The Place Is A Dump. This place is an absolutely filthy no hot water for 2 days the place stinks.the towels when wet stink which makes you stink.even the clothes we put in the wardrobe and didn't ware smell so when we got home we had to wash all the clothes we took.supposed to stay for 3 nights and left a day early ,the stay comes with breakfast which is awful and cold.theres a 5 star rating in the door I wouldn't rate this place to anyone. Do not be fooled by the trip advisor this place should be closed down.
- Guest (3/5): -
- Darren (8/5): - Darren and Kate couldn't do enough for us during our stay.
- Christine (9/5): -
- rosita (7/5): Had what we required for a short stay - It was clean comfortable staff very pleasant and helpful

- Isla (3/5): I expected it to be basic for the price but not dirty! - Friendly staff Dirty, no hot water after 9am on 2 of the 3 mornings.
- Jayne (3/5): Terrible and not as described - I liked the location of the property It was dirty and the staff were unkept.
The facilities advertised were not available such as bar area and parking. Breakfast was missing items that were advertised when booking.
The room was not ready when we arrived. We had to keep asking of things as the room was not ready for 3.
The stairlifts didn’t work.
Leaflet was out of date.
WiFi didn’t work and Information linked to it was in correct.
- PAUL (10/5): Very Good - Friendly helpful staff. Good breakfast. NA
- Kevin & Jennifer (10/5): - The very familiy atmosphere nothing any trouble . Nothing to put here perfect
- Robert (10/5): Friendly staff, and excellent value - Although a bit old the staff were probably the friendliest I have encountered in my stays in black pool Probably needs a little updating but was clean and tidy
- John (8/5): - The owner was excellent and was pleasant and did his best to make my stay a good one.
Unfortunately the bedroom door lock didn’t work and he was unable to fix it. I had to therefore wedge it shut through the night.
The other point which was a little more disappointing was that I could not get the shower to run hot.
Not ideal.
Overall. A reasonable stay, pleasant owner, just feel the the property needs a little more TLC and updating.
