“The Charleston presents a mixed impression; while the location near Blackpool's attractions and soundproofed rooms appeal, some accommodations require attention to detail. Family-friendly layouts and modern kitchens in select apartments are definite advantages.

average apartment stay

dirty stairwell makeup stains

i was a little disappointed with some aspects of the apartment. the entrance stairwell wasn't very clean and had a noticeable smell. inside the room, i found makeup stains on the carpet around the dressing table. the bathroom extractor fan also looked like it needed a good clean (it was quite dusty).

Decent Stay with Noticeable Flaws

dusty stairs blood stain

The location was good, close to the town center.

The main entrance needed cleaning. There was a lot of dust on the steps. I also found a blood stain on the carpet in my room. There was dust around the skirting boards and I even found an earring on the carpet.
