Very nice B&B, very close to a great waling tour in the Brecon park. Nice staff, nice room, nice breakfast. Even if there's a pub in the hotel, it's not noisy.
Proprieter stunk of smoke. Advert did not show the chip shop attached to the hotel. Choice of smells , fish and chips or cigarette smoke. Carpets stained. Different smell of wee inside hotel. Dirty cups in room, mouldy shower mats, booken windows in room with dead flies on window sills. Broken glass outside in car park. Left after 10 minutes.
Quick stopover enroute to another destination. Clean comfortable had everything required but donât expect luxury. Very happy with accommodation for the price đ
Chose this place after a day of hiking in Brecon.
Itâs a pub/chippy with a few rooms. Reception in the bar. Got taken to room which was outside, downstairs. Room was cold, and partly used as a storage room. Wasnât very clean. Was a kitchenette there but no utensils to make use of it. The boiler cupboard in the room had a few dirty duvets, decorating material and other items that belonged elsewhere. The noise from the room/bar above travelled through and disturbed us all.
The room serves a purpose after a day of hiking, and we only stayed there because we were tired.
We chose to use the hotel chippy for food and also regretted that - it wasnât very nice.
Apparently the owners are quite new and finding their feet so I feel a bit hard for this review but we didnât enjoy our stay.
The breakfast was poor - a bunch of instant coffee, poor quality bread for toasting and thatâs about it. We didnât see a staff member at all apart from check in.
Overall, I would recommend for a means to an end type of stay, but if you want a bit more of a personal service then go to a Travelodge.
Oh dear. Itâs a pub with rooms, reception at the bar. If weâd seen the TrAd reviews we wouldnât have booked. We were allocated a room (vii) which was - literally - barely bigger than the bed; the only window was in the tiny shower room which has a basin the size of a breeze block and a WC made of non-fitting parts. It was a disgrace and should not be advertised. Fortunately we spotted a larger room and after some discussion (nothing in the blurb said âsmallâ) we were moved there. The new room was spacious, the linen and towels were clean and fresh, but the surfaces - even the TV remote - were dirty and sticky. Serious lack of maintenance: screw missing from light switch, blind wouldnât go down at first, then wouldnât stay up; good shower but the door wouldnât close; no plug in sink. Nobody there to help with breakfast, but anyway we couldnât get away fast enough. Obviously not learned much from the reviews.
I cannot believe this hotel is rated as good. Filthy carpets on way to rooms, halway covered in dirt, cobwebs in the room, dust on all the furniture, bed was as soft as marshmallow, no soap in toilet, just terrible. In fact it was that bad we didn't even stay, we just handed back the keys and walked out despite losing our payment.
Went with my husband for our anniversary. Was left waiting for a key for half an hour. Someone wondered off to get it and then forgot about us. I had to go find someone else as we were waiting to go out. The 'cosy'room with a double bed which is next to a wall was lumpy and uncomfortable. Marks all over the wall and mould in the bathroom. Only 1 mug etc. The toilet seat and lid was far too small for the toilet. When I sat down on it during my half an hour wait for the key, I could feel the toilet basin all cold and wet on the back of my thighs. Decided we couldn't stay here. Went downstairs to say, couldn't see anyone so we decided to leave the key on the side in the bedroom. I got a voicemail the next day saying I had checked out and could they have the key back. They've no clue what's going on there.
I have dogs, this is one of the best pet friendly hotels I've stayed at. Friendly, helpful staff, nice curry house just along the road and a short drive to the Parkrun I was taking part in. Thanks đ
Total lack of care of the property in general. Rat faeces in drawers with water leaks and a major sewerage burst on our front steps as we were packing up to leave.
The service was great, and Ray was the perfect host but the cleanliness let the hotel down. All the essentials were clean - bath, sink and bedding so that was good, but the floor in the bathroom hadnât been hovered so was quite hairy, and there were some windows in the communal areas that were a bit mouldy.
Hotel was in need of some maintenance and a good clean. Paint peeling from walls and damp stains with mould on windows, as well as stained carpets. Stale smell in the hallways and the walls are incredibly thin, so you can hear everything from adjacent rooms.
Breakfast was basic and very much âself serviceâ, with instant coffee power, cheap loaves of bread and toasters for you to sort out yourself. âServiceâ was not a priority and we didnât really see any members of staff while we were there.
Did the job for one night but we did not want to spend any more time there than we had to.
The staff were nice enough on arrival, showed us to our room and we left for wedding. We didn't come back until midnight and the smell of musty damp was present.
The kitchenette units were full of crumbs, there were cobwebs and spiders above the one single bed which we had to get rid of before sleeping.
The sink in the one bathroom fills water and takes a while to go down.
We returned the keys this morning and no mention of breakfast (which i later seen was meant to be included)
Was ok, in need of a good revamp.
