“Canasta Hotel, in Blackpool's quieter North end, strikes me as a property in transition, now under new ownership. While some areas clearly await refurbishment, the staff's friendliness and the spotless cleanliness suggest a solid foundation. I appreciate its location, a convenient base that is slightly removed from the main tourist crush.”
