This place sucks!
The property was so disgusting that we chose not to stay there and refused the room. The property was extremely outdated and misrepresented in your ad. It looked and appeared to be a slum in a major American city decrepit and in disrepair. The lobby was like lipstick on a pig. I will be disputing the charge.

Our room was spacious and comfortable, but very hot, even though two portable fans were provided, because the heating pipes were permanently on, but even so, the availability of hot water was unreliable. Lovely view of the beach and across the bay to The Mumbles.

The location is great . The food and service is excellent.
Hotel is a little tired and has a few layers of paint .
Bed was comfortable. Shower overbath was usable the water was generally hot but fluctuated.
Would probably stay again as the price of the room reflected this.

Nice welcome and impressive lobby but the rest of the hotel is terribly dated and needs a good overhaul.

The outside of the hotel looked a bit unpleasant but inside it looked beautiful but if you looked in the rooms there were stains on the bed frames, curtains and the water pressure was awful

Don't let the outside appearance put you off. The staff were lovely, it was nice and warm, very clean and nicely decorated.
The walls are a bit thin though so the sound proofing is not great.

While the outside of the building made it look rather run down and a mess , the inside was quite nice and very clean , beautiful location on a huge beach with a very impressive tide to watch. Staff were all friendly and helpful.

Room smelt quite musty when I walked in.
I gave up on a shower in the morning as it was running for over 5 minutes & was tepid at best.
Evening meal & breakfast was great, nice friendly staff throughout

first impression not good but value for money
Hotel a bit dated and in need of refurbishment, on arrival saw the food hygiene rating was a 1 but we ate dinner and breakfast in the hotel which was fine, plenty of choice at breakfast and the food was hot, eggs cooked to order!
Room was clean good bed and pillows
swimming pool and spa was closed
The whole area is quite run down don't let first impressions put you off.
