Handy that some of the signage used in construction also indicates what object would improve the hotel.
DETONATOR.

Wow. Can't think of much else to say really. 
Hate to use the 'It's not even finished yet' argument, but....
It's not even finished yet.
There's a lot more to be added; more cladding, coaster-track-ribs, teeth, lighting, etc. It's not even half-finished I'd wager.
I've always liked the look of the shark, being my favourite of the three concepts the park showed on FB. Looking forward to the final result!

I agree with Rowe, it looks like someone had a great idea for an art installation but it isn't quite working out how they wanted!
Although it's not finished I can see this ending up like one of my 'art' projects, where I start adding random stuff or covering the entire thing in glitter in a desperate attempt to bring the piece together.

It doesn't really matter if it's finished or not, it looks naff. A shark made out of rubbish left in the service yards isn't good theming, it's lazy theming. It doesn't even look very "shark-shaped"!
Coupled with the rubbish looking "hotel" and this is something I would expect to see at Pleasurewood Hills. This can't have cost much and it looks horrible.
One night in this "hotel" on the 20th May, without entry, costs £69. The same night in the Big Blue Hotel at Pleasure Beach Blackpool costs £60. There's no value here, it's just blatant money grabbing.

I don't buy this at all.
It's trashy. The whole complex is trashy.
Why does anybody settle for this cheap dross?
