Brecks Hotel

Great stay at Blackpool. Great price and location. Really good breakfast and nice chat with Mike the owner. Had a problem with the toilet and he had a plumber there to fix in in a hour. 2 of the lads had a lie in and no hassle off Mike to get up. Will be back.

Great location- only 11 mins walk from Blackpool tower which was ideal for us as we were in Blackpool for an event there. Rooms and facilities were all clean. Staff (Mike and the lady we met when checking out) were both lovely and very friendly! We'd stay here again if we are back in Blackpool.

Just had a couple of nights at the Brecks. Owners were friendly and breakfast was cooked fresh and set us up for the day. Sadly the room was a disappointment. Tea and coffee was available in the room with kettle/cups etc to make drinks. On arrival the room was freezing. The radiator was set to 5, but there was no heat coming out (radiator was full of dust/debris). Found an electric heater and plugged it into the socket to try and warm the room. Electric is on a card meter, but luckily there was 68p left on it. We returned in the early hours after a night out and found the room to be unbearingly cold (the hallways weren't much warmer). We put the heater on and left it running (the 68p didn't last long). Woke in the morning freezing cold. On investigation the doors in the room (had a twin door instead of a window) was locked shut but did not latch properly leaving about a 10mm gap for not only the cold wind to blow in but the rain as well. We managed to use the spare single bed to push the door closed which stopped the draught. The next morning we paid £5 for an electric card so we could have the heater on in our room. 2nd night was much more comfortable due to the weather improving and the fan heater and modification to the door. We did notice the radiators on a couple of times during our stay, but this wasn't long enough to maintain a comfortable temperature. The room was badly laid out. TV was 90 degrees to the bed (couldn't watch TV from the double bed). The bathroom lacked a shelf for your toiletries and a rail for the towels. There we no coat hooks for hanging coats. The sheet on the bed was clean, but had numerous holes and looked like it was end of life. There was a single metal framed bed, a double pine bed and a single wardrobe (wardrobe had seen better days). I never expect too much in Blackpool, but the basic of being warm and comfortable should be a minimum standard. And this is the first time I've had to purchase electric cards to have power in the room. Owner has added a comment since my original posting which is written like they were a guest at the hotel? Not sure if this was to mislead people reading the review or if they meant to post it as their own review to boost their rating.
