You deserve a medal my friend staying in these what can only described as dumps. We used to go to Blackpool every year but stopped a few years back. There needs to be more frequent checks by the council and places like this should be shut down.
These are the kind of places the council PUT people in for emergency temporary accommodation, such as if you lose your house, a flood or something. I always bring Dettol wipes when staying in a hotel. Even a good one...I clean door handles, taps, light switches, tv remote, etc
Who on earth thought that room was an acceptable replacement. You literally went from an ensuite double quite clean and tidy crack den lol to a cess pit that I wouldn't put the fleas off a rat in to. Wow 😮great vlog Dan 😂
For the state of those rooms I even think £25 a night is too much. Absolutely filthy, drug paraphernalia, unsafe microwave, sheets that aren't even clean 🤢 It feels like basic human rights aren't even covered in that price. I can imagine they're not under any pressure to keep it to any sort of standard as their usual clientele probably don't care what state it's in! I'm shocked that places like this are even allowed to run as a business honestly.
it´s a disgrace. I´ve slept in cleaner areas out in the field whilst in the British army. I mean honestly even some accomodation i slept in when on operations was at least kept very clean by us even if it was very old. That Hotel is a health hazard
Thanks for the insite into this . Being an Electrician and looking at the way the cables are , I wouldn't think that it would pass an Electrical safety check either. The beds were disgusting. I wonder how much the owner realises that these video's are harming their future business. Keep doing what you are doing.
Don’t blame you Dan re the cleaning tackle, when our kids were small and we took them on caravan holidays, the first thing I used to do was “ clean” wash the cutlery and pots that we would be using also take the pillows off of the beds and put our own on, I can honestly say that we always left the caravans cleaner when we left than when we went in. Also even if that room was only £25 a night, it should have been fit for purpose,that as you say was “ minging”
Mate, I disagree with what you said about asking for miracles, it’s not too much to ask for a clean room, with fresh bedding, that should come as standard!. Me and the missus are happy you’ve brought the cleaning back on the vids, makes us chuckle/feel queasy at the same time 😂 can’t wait for your next one 👍🏻
Wow! 2nd room was minging! I stayed in a b & b in Blackpool a few years ago. It was called the Derby Lodge on Derby Road in Blackpool. We had a small room on the top floor. It was January, the room was freezing. The people who ran the place had a dog. We were checking the room and looked under the bed only to find a dog turd that had obviously been there quite a while! 💩 😷 🤢 . I would say go check it out but I don’t think it’s a b & b anymore!
These type of "bed & breakfast" places are for the good time party people, ages around 17- 25. Blackpool has had its day, and rapidly going downhill. I have been going there since i was little (maybe 4 years old), now i am 70. Theses places need a massive injection of cash to get them up to scratch, or demolishing to make way for newer, bigger hotels, but it seems that this will never happen, so the place just dies. Saying that, you can find these sort of places in every seaside resort and you dont have to look very far. As for cleanliness, you can always find dirt in everywhere you look, but some places are much worse than others, and we all know what happens in these cheap places, people only go to play one thing - 'moms and dads.' But good videos Dan, but i bet you keep your tents cleaner tan these hoteliers do their houses.
@Thehotelhunteruk Too right! I'd sooner question the marital status of a police officer's parents and take one of their lovely clean cells for a night than go anywhere that vile hellhole.
I'm in love with these videos. I would like to see more regular uploads, though. When using the black light on furniture and the wardrobe, it would be great if you showed the stains/marks and then tried to wipe them with a spray and cloth to demonstrate whether or not they can be removed. Looking forward to the next upload. 🎉🎉🎉
I stayed in blackpool once, in the travel lodge across from bloomfield rosd stadium, we checked in snd went into the room snd there was empty kebab trays, half eaten burgers in cases, chips and cans lying all over the place, not to mention the bed stripped clean and the blankets all in a pile on the ground. Had to wait an hour for them to clean it. Had to threaten them with reporting them to head office for them to give us some free drinks while we were waiting for them to clean it.
New subscriber here from Manchester. Great attention to detail. Tje weighing scales was a bit of a shocker. Imagine if that place got raided? You maybe been nicked for them scales. 😮 Loved the honesty, not overly embellished. I do love Blackpool, loadsa fond memories. About to binge watch your other videos now. Thanks for sharing
EWwwww I'd of run for the hills if I saw all that hair in the 2nd room bed 😱 They definitely swapped u into a more crappy room, I'm not surprised u were cheesed off ☹️ Another fab video & I look forward to the next one. Take care xx
I feel like the owner thought you planted that scale and wanted to punish you by putting you in that sh*thole! I’ve had similar experiences so i ain’t talking crap 😅😅
I'm so glad you do this, places like this need naming and shaming. It does not matter if you pay £10 a night or £100 a night, cleanliness is of paramount importance, and the homeless person argument is stupid, like I said you are a PAYING Guest you are paying money, not looking for some free shelter for the night.
Been looking forward to another video Dan, particularly a Blackpool one. Places like this need to take a look at themselves because I know I wouldn't like to stay there looking at this.
Every time you open the kettle at these places I always think "will he find any batteries in there" :p as I remember from one of your earlier videos there was a triple A battery in the kettle. just the anticipation hahah
Oh god no. I'd have worn a hazmat coverall suit in that 2nd room. The first one was ok. I didn't even know what that was under the bed 😮😮 I thought it was a make up container for a start 😂
If all you are after is to be out of the weather and have a roof over your head for the night, what more could you ask for. Awesome video once again mate, looking forward to the next one. 👍
Oh mate, looks like payback for finding their scales. That 2nd room is foul. I'd have gone back down and ask for the keys to the 1st room back, that's utterly gross. 😮
The Blackpool Hotel videos are the best! You could do a whole channel on these hotels, super entertaining. I live here and always wonder about these types of dives up in the town. Loving the content! (and the selection of cleaning gloves 🧤🧤)
Hello Dan , The first room seemed ok , but the second room , well , needs a very deep clean , and a re- paint , Be Well my Friend , can't wait to see the next offering . 🙂👍
I reckon most places like that get used by contractors who get a certain amount of expenses to use and go for the cheapest options. Most likely what keeps these places going and why the owners don't spend much on the up keep of them.
I love Blackpool but always stay at The Big Blue - not ridiculously priced and always clean and a fab breakfast. But I am obsessed with youtube videos of dodgy Blackpool hotels! I'd never, ever stay in one, but it's amazing seeing what folk wil pay for such awful conditions. Last October i was £59 a night at The Big Blue for 2 nights B&B for me and my son in a deluxe family room with park view! I've subscribed for more ropey hotel content!
Loving your videos brilliant... minging some of the hotels in Blackpool. Please please please could you stay at the mellory its around £22 a night and calypso hotel around £29 a night but warning I've heard this one has guests in the mattresses 🙏🙏🙏 Xx
@rachelquarrell2779 I don't stay in hotels I like to see what people get what they can only afford, some are better than others, not everyone can afford more
Why did you agree with that second room!? I would have taken a peek and asked the first room or get some money back! 😢 RESPECT sleeping in that little room 🥵
Next time.. you bring the things you find after you stayed in the room.. depending if it's a decent room to sleep in ofcourse! Greetings from Belgium 💋
@@jamieclark1767totally agree it's not going to be the Ritz at this price point if some of the moaners had their way & got it closed down another place less for someone with little money or a homeless person to have an available place to stay you get what you pay for
There is nowhere in the country you could get a room as cheap as it is in Blackpool...they aren't going to be the best at that price point it is what it is better than staying out in the elements for sure
Worse B&B was in Liverpool, 30 years ago it wasn't clean bedding had remains human dirt holes in walls, carpets had been covered of chewing gum food was greecy i would have left but it was only because i was going to sci fi con and it was close by and my budget at the time as i stayed a better hotel but was 5 to 10 miles from venue so i stayed 1 night there 1st which now i had regretted in moving location .the owner or member of staff said this was last weekend before renovations started. Not sure if still there or change hands as forgotten the name of hotel was in.
Ive just stumbled across this channel. Lying in bed with a headache down here in Australia 🇦🇺 really enjoying your videos mate. Really good down to earth videos. I appreciate your work mate and I hit the subscription button.
Oh dear I think you've been given the naughty room as punishment for complaining 😮😂😂😂 I think right about now the back seat of the car is looking good.
The shower looked like it ran from the domestic hot water with a cold/hot mixer valve, so slowing the water down would not make it hotter, unlike a standard electric heated type. Gaz UK
Hi. So i just saw this on you tube. Ive just subscribed. As i think these vids are brilliant. That room with the drug parafanalia is just so bad. It goes to show the owner doesnt turn the mattresses and clean the bed.
@@Thehotelhunteruk thank you. Its good to be here. I think its wonderful what you are doing. Giving us all insight into these b&bs. I cant get over that room with the parafanalia under mattress. Wow. Thought that was disgusting.
Hi Dan loving what you do, I think because you raised a little concern about the drugs weighing scale from the 1st room it seems like the owner has taken the huff with you and given you the worst room😮 the 1st room was far more superior.
🇦🇺 i used to think black pool was it and a bit but now after this and alot of other vloget no way would i go thete at all . There is better in England. My dads strate out of London born in surry and blackpool now is a distant memory .its gone to shambles. Love your vlogs thank you 😊❤
Hello mate, I always look forward to your vlogs and this was a horrible place and i wouldn't stay there if it was free but lucky you show us so we can avoid 🍻
Oh my word I almost threw up. Everyone deserves a basic level of cleanliness, homeleess or not, British or not. Having to pay any amount to stay in a room like that is a total insult and whoever runs that hotel should be thoroughly ashamed of themselves. They clearly take no pride in their business. I takes little to do a basic clean each day and a thorough clean maybe once a week!
I'm glad I own a uv torch, it's seen some action, just like the stained wall in the room! I'd be afraid to go anywhere near that wall in case I came back from my mini break pregnant! Eeeeeewwww! (I usually use travellodges on short stays away, they're not perfect but are at least likely to be clean. I still clean the shower and the sink before use, I'd even do that in the Ritz, not that I'd ever spend their prices. I'm a little tapped, but not completely daft! Thanks for an interesting channel, I've just subscribed and will be watching more of your well presented documentaries on topics that even Channel 5 let well alone. Cheers, Jaye ××
I have been in cheap rooms and expensive ones and regardless there is a level of hygiene I would expect. I would have called the people back and told them that I wanted to go back to the other room and my god I was heaving when you was, I am shocked!! And it is no wonder I hate Blackpool, I went once when I was about 10, never again!
The homeless deserve to get a decent room if they are paying that amount of money, just because they are forced to live on the street makes them no different to a student, tourist, family…. I truly hate when people say well it’s better than being on the streets, yes of course it is but for that amount of money a clean room, a hoovered room and one that doesn’t look like it may fall apart if touched should be the minimum in any hotel/bandb. Homeless people are humans too! Loved your response x
How am you Dan and omg what a nightmare that was and you finding that just shows that room ay been clean or they just don't care and where then tuck ya 2 next omg that room was disgusting and thank God you had ya sleeping bag with ya fair play you go prepared stay safe and take care mukka
That second room isn’t even safe…let alone clean. A kettle over a bed???? Those wires were like a ball of wool after a kitten has played with it! And who TF shaves themselves in the bed?? Grim xx great video
Those TV wires 😢😢😢😢 like what were they thinking 🤔 - I agree 👍 you should have stayed put, more so since they swapped out the bedding for new, seemed a slap in the face moving you to the broom cupboard 😮😮😮 - I like a bargain like most do, but even I would have struggled with that 😢😮 - you don't have to have fancy things to be clean, and that was utter filth, I'd be ditching the housekeeping team if I knew that the rooms were that rancid, although I guess they actually don't have one, I'm kinda thinking of what Breakfast may have been like, or I guess you could have used the microwave 😢😢😢😢😢😮
To be honest, i think the last room is about £25 worth. You were lucky to get the on-site for that to start with. Years ago, we went to Blackpool (15 ish). we paid £45, basically for a bed a bit bigger than a single that was advertised as a double. We had to climb up the bed to get in it. You couldn't walk down the side of it, then had a space at the bottom, but you had to stand on the bed to close the door! We had to share a bathroom. Got bitten to death, not sure if it was bed bugs or fleas. Never been back since.
Unfortunately some bed and breakfasts don’t employ cleaners out of season so they’ll try an keep a room tidy with the hidden details as a lot of the hotel owners are old people £25 is nothing when ya think of it ya had a good room ya went snooping ya didn’t have to so the 2nd room is karma sorry to say , you said about crack ya don’t smoke crack with tin foil that’s heroin , the microwave as been moved around the scales had white powder so from my neck off the woods that’s coke , ya kettle lid and microwave have all took part of cooking up the crack state the obvious , ya should do some background checks on hotels read reviews that 2nd room had me literally itching 😅
I can't believe you spent the night in that room. Appalling that , as you say, someone might have saved up for a treat only to be confronted with this.
The first room was slightly better. Even at that low price the hotel should have been in better condition. The second room didn't look safe with wires and microwave . Thank you for showing us what its like staying there.
Blackpool Landladies are a law unto themselves 😁If I found drug paraphernalia I wouldn't be able to stay and the mattress is disgusting. even being offered a change of room, I would run away! Not supposed to leave water in a kettle between guests. I stayed in a low budget Hotel in Blackpool once, had to suffer it for the week because other places we could have afforded were full. Never would I do that again.
dan OMG , I AM LOVING THE HOTEL VIDS AFTER WATCHING YOUR WILD CAMPIMG VIDS THIS IS A BREATH OF FRESH AIR LOL, MAY BE NOT THAT 2ND ROOM FOR ME I HAVE A SMALL DOG SO FIND IT DIFFICULT TO FIND A DOG FRIENDLY PLACE TO STAY I JUST SUB X.
29 06 If they were going to 'deep' clean the first room, why would they have bothered to change the bedding ? Strange people.. Ps Subbed. Gaz Yorkshire.
Gosh, that second room, It does NOT pay to complain. I'm not fussy but never could /would I sleep in there. It's winter, surely she has a nicer room somewhere...that is just Disgusting!!!😮 Taking the Micky mouse... please don't stay in that room, yuk !!
Take out the coffee equipment ,cupboards ,TV, bathroom. Shelves and put in 2 sets of cheap bunk beds with 2 inch foam mattresses and dont forget 3 other tenant's
Try the lodge B&B in co-op Street lol 😂 now that it bad the proprietor is so friendly put the B&B remains me of Rising Damp the BBC sitcom of the 1970s starring Leonard Rossiter😂🤔🏴
Thats how you charge batteries up, by biting them or squashing them with pliers etc...get a few more weeks out of them. Good hack for the bigger or square batteries as they cost the most 👍
Providing that 2nd room (IMO the 1st one wasn't terrible) in that condition to anyone is actually downright insulting, as you say could be for someone who saved for a holiday for months and that's the only thanks they get. Smh...
Thank u for bring understanding that this is a holiday to some people but id be gutted to save up n get this for me and my child,can u imagine the heartbreak?
These room reviews and B&B reviews make me laugh . At the end of the day it’s not like a caravan or hotel, you go to these places to just really sleep you don’t spend any significant times in these rooms s as long as the bed is comfortable and okay there should be no reason to complain for the price being offered
Dan stop apologising, you’re absolutely correct, the cupboard you were put in was way dirtier than the drug room, that bed had 100% been slept in, and I agree with you, I don’t care how much you paid; it’s irrelevant, the room should be clean and not a health hazard. Really, it’s ok for you, because you’re staying there to show the issues, but many poor children and families are put in these hovels and the landlords collect thousands of pounds from the council in housing benefit. It’s totally wrong and immoral, if you decide to open a B&B then you MUST provide a safe clean environment…this world really gets to me, I’m exhausted feeling furious all the time, everything is soooooooooooooo unfair. Great video, keep uncovering these crooks, in fact you should research the owner’s names and name and shame them all…👌🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬❤
When I went to Blackpool in 2000 to do a summer season, I booked a week in a holiday flat in Foxhall. It was so bad that I left after 5 minutes. I wrote the money off. This hotel is Buckingham palace compared to that hellhole.
You deserve a medal my friend staying in these what can only described as dumps. We used to go to Blackpool every year but stopped a few years back. There needs to be more frequent checks by the council and places like this should be shut down.

ABSOLUTELY 100%

Hi. So i just saw this on you tube. Ive just subscribed. As i think these vids are brilliant. That room with the drug parafanalia is just so bad. It goes to show the owner doesnt turn the mattresses and clean the bed.
Welcome to the channel Jane
@@Thehotelhunteruk thank you. Its good to be here. I think its wonderful what you are doing. Giving us all insight into these b&bs. I cant get over that room with the parafanalia under mattress. Wow. Thought that was disgusting.
You’ve Jumped Out Of Frying Into The Fire With Second Room . Unbelievable !!! 😳🤣🤣🤣
Thanks for making this. Most appreciated 👍
Your a alternative tourist like looking at crap don't worry it cool . The wife and I love your vids mate
Thank you for watching
Enjoying the videos! Great honest reviews.
Hi Dan loving what you do, I think because you raised a little concern about the drugs weighing scale from the 1st room it seems like the owner has taken the huff with you and given you the worst room😮 the 1st room was far more superior.

Awesome video as always! Thankyou 🙂
Just stumbled onto your channel mate. This is my 5th vdeo in a row of yours, love the videos love the channel, keep up the good work! Subbed
Welcome to the channel 😀
🇦🇺 i used to think black pool was it and a bit but now after this and alot of other vloget no way would i go thete at all .
There is better in England.
My dads strate out of London born in surry and blackpool now is a distant memory .its gone to shambles. Love your vlogs thank you 😊❤
😮 F-that mate.i couldnt stay there...good luck...stay safe bro.👍✌️
Hello mate, I always look forward to your vlogs and this was a horrible place and i wouldn't stay there if it was free but lucky you show us so we can avoid 🍻
Thank you for I have a new video coming out this weekend
@@Thehotelhunteruk brilliant I'm guessing it's the one that you couldn't get into, looking forward to it 🍻😊
This is why i bought a van and converted it into a camper, most hotel/ guest house rooms are not clean.
You had the best idea
Oh my word I almost threw up. Everyone deserves a basic level of cleanliness, homeleess or not, British or not. Having to pay any amount to stay in a room like that is a total insult and whoever runs that hotel should be thoroughly ashamed of themselves. They clearly take no pride in their business. I takes little to do a basic clean each day and a thorough clean maybe once a week!
New subscriber :) Horrific that shoebox room mate, doesnt bare thinking about what some of them stains were 🤮
Welcome to the channel 😀
@Thehotelhunteruk cheers Dan, been a watcher of English woodsman for a while too. Keep the content coming mate.
Love the pink marigolds dan, good luck staying in that room tonight
Tbh although I don't do drugs, never have, never will... I would've rather had stayed in the first room than the second. 😬
I'm glad I own a uv torch, it's seen some action, just like the stained wall in the room! I'd be afraid to go anywhere near that wall in case I came back from my mini break pregnant! Eeeeeewwww!
(I usually use travellodges on short stays away, they're not perfect but are at least likely to be clean.
I still clean the shower and the sink before use, I'd even do that in the Ritz, not that I'd ever spend their prices. I'm a little tapped, but not completely daft!
Thanks for an interesting channel, I've just subscribed and will be watching more of your well presented documentaries on topics that even Channel 5 let well alone.
Cheers,
Jaye ××
Thank you for subscribing.
I don't think I could live without my uv light now 🤣🤣🤣
I have been in cheap rooms and expensive ones and regardless there is a level of hygiene I would expect. I would have called the people back and told them that I wanted to go back to the other room and my god I was heaving when you was, I am shocked!! And it is no wonder I hate Blackpool, I went once when I was about 10, never again!
The homeless deserve to get a decent room if they are paying that amount of money, just because they are forced to live on the street makes them no different to a student, tourist, family…. I truly hate when people say well it’s better than being on the streets, yes of course it is but for that amount of money a clean room, a hoovered room and one that doesn’t look like it may fall apart if touched should be the minimum in any hotel/bandb. Homeless people are humans too! Loved your response x
That 1st one is great value though.. i always bring a sleeping bag and my own pillow just in case
Sleeping bag 100%.
Are you new to my channel??
How am you Dan and omg what a nightmare that was and you finding that just shows that room ay been clean or they just don't care and where then tuck ya 2 next omg that room was disgusting and thank God you had ya sleeping bag with ya fair play you go prepared stay safe and take care mukka
Sod staying there! I would be in the next taxi to Premier Inn etc
That second room isn’t even safe…let alone clean. A kettle over a bed???? Those wires were like a ball of wool after a kitten has played with it! And who TF shaves themselves in the bed?? Grim xx great video
Those TV wires 😢😢😢😢 like what were they thinking 🤔 - I agree 👍 you should have stayed put, more so since they swapped out the bedding for new, seemed a slap in the face moving you to the broom cupboard 😮😮😮 - I like a bargain like most do, but even I would have struggled with that 😢😮 - you don't have to have fancy things to be clean, and that was utter filth, I'd be ditching the housekeeping team if I knew that the rooms were that rancid, although I guess they actually don't have one, I'm kinda thinking of what Breakfast may have been like, or I guess you could have used the microwave 😢😢😢😢😢😮
To be honest, i think the last room is about £25 worth. You were lucky to get the on-site for that to start with.
Years ago, we went to Blackpool (15 ish). we paid £45, basically for a bed a bit bigger than a single that was advertised as a double. We had to climb up the bed to get in it. You couldn't walk down the side of it, then had a space at the bottom, but you had to stand on the bed to close the door! We had to share a bathroom.
Got bitten to death, not sure if it was bed bugs or fleas.
Never been back since.
Unfortunately some bed and breakfasts don’t employ cleaners out of season so they’ll try an keep a room tidy with the hidden details as a lot of the hotel owners are old people £25 is nothing when ya think of it ya had a good room ya went snooping ya didn’t have to so the 2nd room is karma sorry to say , you said about crack ya don’t smoke crack with tin foil that’s heroin , the microwave as been moved around the scales had white powder so from my neck off the woods that’s coke , ya kettle lid and microwave have all took part of cooking up the crack state the obvious , ya should do some background checks on hotels read reviews that 2nd room had me literally itching 😅
Ayup Dan, you should have been upgraded because of the find not down, they are lucky you didn't call the cop's, good work mate 👍
Down granded all the way to the bottom
A cardboard box would have been a better upgrade.
I think the owner was snappy because the first room was their best. No upgrades left, just down.
Celebrity Jungle just gets tougher 🤣
😂😂
I can't believe you spent the night in that room. Appalling that , as you say, someone might have saved up for a treat only to be confronted with this.
Thank you for watching
I think if you look in a 5 star hotel, you'll still find stain. Even your own house. Yes people don't mind their own stains, just stains from others.
Love this channel
Thank you
The first room was slightly better. Even at that low price the hotel should have been in better condition. The second room didn't look safe with wires and microwave . Thank you for showing us what its like staying there.
Blackpool Landladies are a law unto themselves 😁If I found drug paraphernalia I wouldn't be able to stay and the mattress is disgusting. even being offered a change of room, I would run away! Not supposed to leave water in a kettle between guests. I stayed in a low budget Hotel in Blackpool once, had to suffer it for the week because other places we could have afforded were full. Never would I do that again.
dan OMG , I AM LOVING THE HOTEL VIDS AFTER WATCHING YOUR WILD CAMPIMG VIDS THIS IS A BREATH OF FRESH AIR LOL, MAY BE NOT THAT 2ND ROOM FOR ME I HAVE A SMALL DOG SO FIND IT DIFFICULT TO FIND A DOG FRIENDLY PLACE TO STAY I JUST SUB X.
Welcome to the channel Steve
I been watching your videos lately just subscribed to your channel
Thank you for subscribing Alex
@@Thehotelhunteruk no problem 😌

If they were going to 'deep' clean the first room, why would they have bothered to change the bedding ?
Strange people..
Ps Subbed.
Gaz Yorkshire.
Try the Horizon in Brighton, I'd be interested in what you find.
Gosh, that second room, It does NOT pay to complain. I'm not fussy but never could /would I sleep in there. It's winter, surely she has a nicer room somewhere...that is just Disgusting!!!😮 Taking the Micky mouse... please don't stay in that room, yuk !!
Never again
😢😢 have to wait for mrs tonight dan, or she'll kill me watching it without her 😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Take out the coffee equipment ,cupboards ,TV, bathroom. Shelves and put in 2 sets of cheap bunk beds with 2 inch foam mattresses and dont forget 3 other tenant's
The microwave WOW i would have thrown it out discusting and a fire hazard with that and the dodgy wiring
Try the lodge B&B in co-op Street lol 😂 now that it bad the proprietor is so friendly put the B&B remains me of Rising Damp the BBC sitcom of the 1970s starring Leonard Rossiter😂🤔🏴
Thats how you charge batteries up, by biting them or squashing them with pliers etc...get a few more weeks out of them. Good hack for the bigger or square batteries as they cost the most 👍
Providing that 2nd room (IMO the 1st one wasn't terrible) in that condition to anyone is actually downright insulting, as you say could be for someone who saved for a holiday for months and that's the only thanks they get. Smh...
Omg you should get in touch with Blackpool gazette over this or even itv 🤔
I might get myself a TV show
I bet after that 2nd room you wished you didnt find that drug stuff lol hats off to you for these videos. Brave man lol
New subscriber here. Loving your channel 😊x
Welcome to the channel
Thank u for bring understanding that this is a holiday to some people but id be gutted to save up n get this for me and my child,can u imagine the heartbreak?
That why I love doing the videos to help people see what they might be booking
These room reviews and B&B reviews make me laugh . At the end of the day it’s not like a caravan or hotel, you go to these places to just really sleep you don’t spend any significant times in these rooms s as long as the bed is comfortable and okay there should be no reason to complain for the price being offered
Thank you for watching
What a ridiculous comment. Clean is a basic and getting what you paid for is ridiculously easy. It may be cheap, but holy cow. Simple stuff.
Couldn’t agree more.
I never use wardrobes or drawers in hotels,they never get cleaned….or bedspreads..
100% this video shows things don't get cleaned right
@@Thehotelhunteruk ive bought myself some hotel slippers now,as most carpets are revolting..
Dan stop apologising, you’re absolutely correct, the cupboard you were put in was way dirtier than the drug room, that bed had 100% been slept in, and I agree with you, I don’t care how much you paid; it’s irrelevant, the room should be clean and not a health hazard. Really, it’s ok for you, because you’re staying there to show the issues, but many poor children and families are put in these hovels and the landlords collect thousands of pounds from the council in housing benefit. It’s totally wrong and immoral, if you decide to open a B&B then you MUST provide a safe clean environment…this world really gets to me, I’m exhausted feeling furious all the time, everything is soooooooooooooo unfair. Great video, keep uncovering these crooks, in fact you should research the owner’s names and name and shame them all…👌🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬❤
Thank you
When I went to Blackpool in 2000 to do a summer season, I booked a week in a holiday flat in Foxhall. It was so bad that I left after 5 minutes. I wrote the money off. This hotel is Buckingham palace compared to that hellhole.
Foxhall, I'm planning to stay there soon. I hope you subscribered to my channel so you can see my video about it .... thank you for watching
@@Thehotelhunteruk I sure have.
