“Based on what I've gathered, The Galloway presents a very basic option for budget travelers in Blackpool. However, reports of cleanliness issues and maintenance concerns give me pause, and suggest potential guests should arrive with tempered expectations. While the location might be convenient, the overall experience appears to fall short of a comfortable stay.”

surprisingly comfy stay!

comfy beds lovely staff
the new beds were indeed very comfy. i slept really well all nights (i was exhausted though!). the new staff are lovely and always ready to help with anything.
the noise levels at night were a bit disruptive. it would be great if the doors had some cushioning to prevent them from banging shut as it echoed quite a lot.
