Bloody hell, used to be called The Trentwood this place, had the best outdoor christmas decorations on a Blackpool hotel back in the day! Sign of the times having key drops and just a phone number to contact on arrival and during your stay. Its a shame but thankgod we got out of it before covid, thats definitely when the final nail was put in the coffin. These places cost so much to run and repair and with the salty air the damage is never ending. Makes me so sad but times have moved on 😢 xxx
Cheers Caz. We understand that times are hard in the B&B business but most of the issues we had could have been sorted very easily e.g. no plug in the sink and no bulb 💡 in the bathroom 🩷🩵🌈 xxx
@@thechatterguys oh I totally agree, these are cheap, easy and essential things that should be sorted, that's really bad. They are money pits these old buildings especially for leaks, bad roofing etc. Don't envy anyone who runs a B & B, you live it 24/7 🫣 xxx
From the off, the Horror film music didn't inspire much booking confidence. Was just waiting on Colin breaking down the door of No14 with an axe, grinning...Here'sssss Johnnnnnny! But was pleasantly surprised by the room. Loved the round the back of B&M warehouse pallet wall feature. Industrial look is so in at the moment. Not to mention the invisible 4 hanger wardrobe, Alex Polizzi is kicking herself right now, a genius space saving hack. BTW the shower scene....I take it, it was very very VERY cold in there Colin?🤣
@@thechatterguys If I’d known the breakfast was gonna be so delicious I would’ve eaten the previous evening in their bistro I will definitely check it out on my next visit Hope you enjoy your stay
Aww bless you both...no wonder there was no reception desk...the receptionist would be un indated with complaints!! I do love the socks tho colin..:) great video anyway xx
its great you do these reviews guys letting ppl know what these places are really like xxx....oohh looks cold n wet there..mind you its not much different here....we have rain today..it has been hot 35 degrees...xxx
The bathroom fan that’s why we always take a small torch what a disaster it sounded like the report card says improvement needed greetings from Scotland 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Great that your room was kept clean however being able have a shower and a good nights sleep are basics. I wondered what on earth the noise was from the fan a couple of minutes before you mentioned it. what's with no sink plug and why that shelf so high up? Nope Im not ever staying there guys.
We don't understand the appeal of Blackpool.. We went once and staff in pubs and cafes made fun of our accents and mimicked us because we asked for proper coffee and didn't want Asda smart price instant.. 😮.. ".. Ooh they think they are back in Italy.. Oooh they want capaaaa chino... Oooh... "
Hi Colin and Tim Well what a shocker of a Hotel this was, even at £54 you expect hot water on demand, i think they need a new commercial combi boiler. Hot water aside no plug in the sink at 50p, and no Fluorescent tube at £2-50p that's just bad management it really is. Now i must admit i nearly did not watch this clip as the intro music was so spooky, i bet you that was Collins doing 👻👻👻 Chris. 🏳🌈🏳🌈🏳🌈🏳🌈🏳🌈🏳🌈🏳🌈🏳🌈🏳🌈🏳🌈🏳🌈🏳🌈🏳🌈
Hi Chris! We agree 💯 about the hot water 💦, we could have coped with everything else! And you're right about the music 🎵, that was Colin's idea 💡. Tim didn't get it either 😀 xx❤️
So it was just a trickle on the tickle in the shower then Colin? But its a great way to show a shower reveiw guys, dont think us ladies have seen that before, anyway it was still a treat to see 🍬🎃 xx
Hello Frances. We haven't stayed at the Foreshaws but we shall bear it in mind. We've already booked our hotel for our next stay in Blackpool, though xxx ❤️
Hello Robin. Thanks for your comment, but we have to disagree. We'd expect at least an adequate shower 🚿 in a hostel, let alone a hotel 🏨. Everything else we accept that you get what you pay for but that shower (and the toilet 🚽) we're just unacceptable ❤️🌞👍
You can still get them but it's going out of fashion especially at that price point £27 per person & you expect a full English breakfast as well it's 2024 not 1994 ...
Hi Matthew. Most of the hotels we stay at in Blackpool still offer breakfast. Some are starting to offer it as an add-on, though. We can only imagine what breakfast 🍳 would have been like at the Malibu 😝 xx
My friends run that hotel back in 2017/18 it was called springhouse hotel then looks like new owners have done nothing to put a sparkle on it shame because its very central and oppisit funny girls..
That didn't look good, you couldn't swing a cat im that room! 54 quid is good, but i think id rather pay more to be honest and get a better experience😊
HMP''s establishments are better equipped and more spacious, also it should be clean with that square footage, the kettle under tv is concerning unless you can plug it in somewhere else - Great Video As Always XXX - the old adage-you get what you pay for and you didn't even get that really! XXX - I LOVE THE POLISHING A TURD addition they made by adding a flamingo cushion! LOL XX
😆😆😆 We had not thought about the location of the kettle. Luckily we didn't risk having a brew. We don't feel we got our money's worth. We'd expect to be able to have a shower in a hostel never mind a hotel 🏨 ❤️ xxx
That i would class a a single room because of the bed against the wall going to be awarkard if two people and one wants to get up for the toilet and with all your problems not worth the money 🍻

Someone has just told us that the Malibu is closed down now. That can't be down to our video, can it? 😯

Ha ha! Thanks Carbon! So funny 😂🤣😂
Wow! That looked GRIM!!!
I’ve just stayed at The Delovely on Lord Street and it was lovely and the breakfast was Superb!
Hi Phil! We're staying at DeLovely on our next visit to Blackpool. We can't wait! 😻
@@thechatterguys If I’d known the breakfast was gonna be so delicious I would’ve eaten the previous evening in their bistro
I will definitely check it out on my next visit
Hope you enjoy your stay
Aww bless you both...no wonder there was no reception desk...the receptionist would be un indated with complaints!! I do love the socks tho colin..:) great video anyway xx
Ha ha! You're right there, Carol. A receptionist would have been rushed off their feet! 🩷🥰
its great you do these reviews guys letting ppl know what these places are really like xxx....oohh looks cold n wet there..mind you its not much different here....we have rain today..it has been hot 35 degrees...xxx
Thanks Carol. For the time of year the weather has been quite good here. It never gets anywhere near 35° though! 🥵🥶❤️
Lad walking passed at the end looked thrilled to be on your video
We noticed. He mustn't get out much 😆
Hi guys you can always tell your in blackpool when you hear the seagulls 😂❤
The seagulls are particularly noisy in Blackpool. And they fly about at night. We thought only owls did that 🤔👍🌉
At least they didn’t encourage you to leave a flip flop in the door..
🩴🩴🩴 We believe the code is to hang a towel over the door nowadays 😆 xxx
The bathroom fan that’s why we always take a small torch what a disaster it sounded like the report card says improvement needed greetings from Scotland 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Good idea, Ian, but in that room there wouldn't have been anywhere to put a torch 🔦 😀
Great honest review 😅 . Springy bed lol nice cheap hotel bad shower knobs and knockers lol hehe kettle test 7:20
Thanks Kkrispy! 👍🌈❤️
The sound of the shower door....think person might be quieter 😂
Bed seems a bit small and hate being pushed up againgst a wall so to speak 😅
Hi Celia! The bed was a double so the size was OK 😉 but it was a nuisance with it being pushed against the wall 🧱 xxx 🦐
Big let down with no hot water, could not have coped. You were brave
Thanks Rob! Luckily we were only in Blackpool for one night, otherwise we would have cut our visit short rather than stay at Malibu another night 🌉 xx
ROOM APPEARED CLEAN, NO MORE COLIN IN THE SHOWER SCENES, WE THOUGHT WE WERE WATCHING PSYCHO.
Ha ha! Ey Michael, we've got to keep our viewing figures up. There'll be plenty more of Colin in the shower 🚿 😝
Great that your room was kept clean however being able have a shower and a good nights sleep are basics. I wondered what on earth the noise was from the fan a couple of minutes before you mentioned it. what's with no sink plug and why that shelf so high up? Nope Im not ever staying there guys.
Yes, we could not fault the cleanliness, Dave, but many of the other shortfalls could have been fixed so easily 👍🌈🏨 xx
Excellent review as always 👍..Would need to drink a couple bottles of "Malibu" to stay there 🤣
Ha ha! Absolutely, Brian! 😂

Hi Tom. We've never received such appalling service in Blackpool. Which pubs and cafes did you visit? 😯
Great review thanks
Thanks for watching!
Not a great one boys 😕 always great your content 👍 👌 ❤
Cheers Paul. Glad you liked the video and glad we only stayed at the Malibu for one night 😁🩵👍
Hi Colin and Tim

We're Chaps next visit 🤞
Very wise 🦉 We love Chaps ❤️🩷❤️
So it was just a trickle on the tickle in the shower then Colin? But its a great way to show a shower reveiw guys, dont think us ladies have seen that before, anyway it was still a treat to see 🍬🎃 xx
Ha ha! Thank you Carol! Call us picky but when we have a shower we like to be able to get wet! 😄😆🤣 xxx
The bed looks so small! How did you fit two adults on there?
Hi Jennifer. The bed was a standard double, the same as we have at home, although it was a nuisance with it being pushed up against the wall 🧱 🌞👍🏨 xxx
@0.56 Rooms 16 to 11...not 11 to 16? Hotel Malibu is trying to mess with your mind
Ha ha! We never even clocked that! 😆
Have you both been to the foreshaws hotel? If not could u possibly review that hotel if you next go to Blackpool 😊
Hello Frances. We haven't stayed at the Foreshaws but we shall bear it in mind. We've already booked our hotel for our next stay in Blackpool, though xxx ❤️
@thechatterguys thank you
❤️
Hi 👋 Colin and Tim still not bad for 54 ponds for one night it's not benidorm 😂 enjoy the rest of evening 😊
54 pounds is too much for the look of that room
We agree 💯 Niloc2205. The shower was the deal breaker for us. Everything else we could have coped with for one night 🌉 👍❤️
Hello Robin. Thanks for your comment, but we have to disagree. We'd expect at least an adequate shower 🚿 in a hostel, let alone a hotel 🏨. Everything else we accept that you get what you pay for but that shower (and the toilet 🚽) we're just unacceptable ❤️🌞👍
Where was the breakfast review? I’d never stay anywhere in Blackpool where I couldn’t get a full English every morning in the hotel I was in
You can still get them but it's going out of fashion especially at that price point £27 per person & you expect a full English breakfast as well it's 2024 not 1994 ...
Hi Azza. There are no dining facilities at Hotel Malibu. 🍽️ xx
Hi Matthew. Most of the hotels we stay at in Blackpool still offer breakfast. Some are starting to offer it as an add-on, though. We can only imagine what breakfast 🍳 would have been like at the Malibu 😝 xx
£5:40 would be a fair and honest price -
Nevermind £54 a night !!!
😳
Whatever the price, we would have expected at least a warm shower 🚿 Peaky x🩷
very compact
You're not wrong there!
better than sky ity
Ha ha! Thank you Kirsty ❤️🩵🩷
@@thechatterguys it's now closed down hmmm winder why
Really? We were there only a few weeks ago! 😯
Blackpool and Benidorm channel
They're our most popular topics, Wolverine! 😺
Hole Malibu. Most places are fine
Great prices in week with meals
Thank you, Lee! 👍👍👍
My friends run that hotel back in 2017/18 it was called springhouse hotel then looks like new owners have done nothing to put a sparkle on it shame because its very central and oppisit funny girls..
Excellent point! Hotel Malibu is in a prime position, it could be a goldmine 🏨👍🌞
That didn't look good, you couldn't swing a cat im that room! 54 quid is good, but i think id rather pay more to be honest and get a better experience😊
We agree 👍💯 Fran. We didn't expect much for the price but we did want a decent shower 🚿 ❤️🌈🥰
@@thechatterguys definitely, hope you find something better next time 🙂
We're staying at DeLovely for our next visit. It lives up to its name 👍

The bed looks like it was a large single bed did not look like a double bed.
Hi Niloc. The bed 🛏️ was a standard double, but you could feel every single spring! 🩵👻🪷
That i would class a a single room because of the bed against the wall going to be awarkard if two people and one wants to get up for the toilet and with all your problems not worth the money 🍻
Cheers John. Yes, that was Tim who was sleeping next to the wall 🧱 and you're right, very tricky when you need to pay a visit in the dark 🕶️ 😀
Looks like you don't have a enough room to swing a cat judging by the size of the room.
We could have coped with the size of the room for one night in view of the price, but not being able to shower 🚿 was the final straw xxx
Hi chatter guys doesn't look great,as for the shower to wash your knobs and knockers,tickled me that colin,great review not for me though xx😊❤
Not for us either, Shirley! We think we might have a new catchphrase! xxx ❤️🩷❤️
@@thechatterguys love it 😍
Not the best value guys better off sticking to benidorm 😊
Thanks Selena. Whilst most things are more expensive in the UK, Blackpool is generally excellent value. Not Hotel Malibu, unfortunately! ❤️🌈🩷
@thechatterguys yes rough with the smooth but unless we experience them we don't know unfortunately not the best night's sleep for you guys 🤗
