The Driftwood Hotel

Not bad

On arrival, the lady that met us was lovely, thats the only positive. We were then sent to the hotel next door as apparently they were both connected. We were greeted by a hallway full of dirty washing, followed by the dirtiest room I've ever been in. There was a communal room that shouldve been a bar room but was not fit for use My partner cleaned the place when we got there and we still couldn't stop. We left half an hour after we got there and didn't spend the night. The bed was broken and uncomfortable. The toilet still had sh*t in it. There were no handles on the drawers so they couldn't be used. The bathroom was filled with mould and the toilet roll was just sat on the dirty windowsill. Wouldn't recommend to anybody. The cheap price shouldn't mean this amount of uncleanliness is acceptable.

When we got there the manager wasn’t even there had to wait a while then the owner arrived and moved us to a whole different hotel. They were doing renovations outside the only reason we were able to get in contact with the owner was one of the workers had their number. Also we tried ringing the managers and hotels number multiple times and no one was picking up.

Yes there are broken lights and smelly towels and stained sheets and dirty sink and stained floor and wonky curtain rail and dusty TV but its what I would expect for a £17 a night room! The customer service I recieved from the manager on the day was excellent! She handed me the key and said the room was done and if there is anything that is wrong to inform her, very nice and polite! My rating is for the hotel and room not the customer service, she was excellent x I think if you are looking for a very cheap night out this is the place if you dont mind what comes with it, you will be hard to find a clean place at that price so what do you expect???? No I personally would not go back I just wanted to rate it so you can make your own decisions, rating on my youtbe Travel With Russell

Room is clean and comfortable Good value for money Suits me fine, not a palace but I'm not paying for one I've extended my stay

The staff were great and provided a travel cot for the little one too, really friendly and great price. nice and close to the seafront. Perhaps not ideal if you have more than one child but absolutely ideal for a couple or quiet getaway. Good experience all in all

Wow. This is definitely an establishment to AVOID. I'm accustomed to 'roughing it' and totally believe that you get what you pay for, but this place doesn't even meet the very most basic of standards. On arrival, the communal areas are dirty, untidy, and smelly. Up in the bedroom, the room was very small, with no area or provision to hang any clothing. The bed was small with an extremely lumpy mattress. Springs sticking out on the side, causing a skin tear by walking past the bed. The TV didn't work, the window was broken, the bedding was stained, pillows were extremely thin, and only 2 provided. The en suite was small, mouldy, and dirty. Downstairs, it appeared the hosts were having a party with people shouting loudly, swearing, arguing, drinking, and taking dr*gs. There are other budget b&bs in Blackpool that can offer so much more. Room was £35 a night, managed to find a room for £19 which far exceeded the standards of this hell hole. Please avoid and find somewhere else.

Absolutely shocking place to stay definitely not is advertised on any of the pictures. Drawers broken, tobacco in the top draw, stains on the floor and no milk for refreshments in the morning. Think money spent on soap and shower gel more than on the room. Small, dinghy and no room. I know it was advertised as a budget room but I'm sure the homeless on the streets had better accomodation. Ended up moving after 1 night and paying for another room in a other hotel.
