The hotel is located in the village of Blackhall Colliery within walking distance of the beach. The rooms are large, clean, and comfortable, providing everything you need for a pleasant stay. However, there are some drawbacks like a noisy road and uncomfortable bed. The service is friendly, but there were some inconsistencies in availability. The location is ideal for those wanting a village atmosphere and friendly staff, despite issues with broken glass. Dining options are varied, with nearby places offering quality food. Facilities are decent but could use improvement in some areas.

The hotel rooms were large, clean, and comfortable with everything needed for a pleasant stay, but they appeared a bit worn and could use a fresh coat of paint. Additionally, noise levels were noticeable on some nights, understandable for a public house. The parking area lacked sufficient lighting and only had low kerbs in most places, with limited dropped kerbs available.

The hotel is located in the center of the village, with a warm and friendly pub atmosphere. The rooms could benefit from a fresh coat of paint and better lighting in the parking area. However, they were clean and well-equipped for a comfortable stay. The location is convenient but slightly remote from the town center, and noise levels can vary. The dining options are limited to nearby cafes, but the service is lovely. Overall, it offers great value for money with some minor improvements needed.
