But the mom first walked into the Chinese, Thai and Indian joint two days earlier to use the restroom, her mom said.
The cause of death has not yet been determined, and an inquest is scheduled to take place in April.
Posting on Facebook, Sabrina’s heartbroken mum Christine, 68, said: “My daughter went into the property on Thursday November 28 to use the toilet.
“An autopsy is still pending to determine the cause of death, but her body was not discovered until Saturday afternoon.”
In a touching tribute shared on Facebook, Sabrina’s daughter Jade wrote: “You were intelligent, made everyone laugh and had a good heart and a beautiful soul.”
She added: “Like you always said to me, ‘Good night, God bless you girls, I love you like life, and some more.’
“I hope you’re dancing in heaven mom, you’ll never know what a hole you left in my life. My heart is broken.”
Lancashire Police said officers were called to the scene at around 1pm on Saturday.
Police also confirmed that Sabrina’s death is not being treated as suspicious.
A spokesman told LancsLive: “We were called just after 1pm on Saturday, November 30, to reports of a sudden death at an address in Waterloo Road, Blackpool.
