Pros:

Clarence House is in a good location on the sea front. There's an access ramp and a lift.

Cons:

Three false fire alarms in the early hours, at what point do you stop believing them? Until you smell smoke? No apologies at check out. Paid for a sea view. If you stood in the right place you could see the sea. The hotel is obviously on a thoroughfare, drunks shouting on their way past til the early hours. Noise in the hotel the same with doors banging, arguing in the room next door.
Not expecting the Ritz.

Breakfast is a good deal . Fill up for the day . Great inside beer garden but the barman was a miserable soul with a dam
Pros:

Location was everything. Views and Tenby is wonderful. Beer garden inside and out overlooking the sea. It is an old building but room was clean

Cons:

Needs a bit of TLC with the decor , but fun place

Cheap, convenient. Extreme budget hotel for a single traveller but would not recommend.
Pros:

Great location. The lift was very convenient. The cleaner was so lovely! Good price.

Cons:

The single room that I was I was extremely small. The photographs on the website/booking do not reflect the single rooms available. Unfortunately it was very cramped, there was a small window that opened an inch only. I visited during a heatwave so was savage in the heat, especially with no air con or fan available in the room. I stayed over a Sunday night, the hotels entertainment and music/radio was playing on the speaker until very late at night which was not great as with the heat the window had to be kept open to allow some cool air/breeze but sleep wasn’t an option until very late into the night so the motorway drive home was tough.

We only spent one night, good on the whole but pricey at over £140
Pros:

The room was clean, comfortable good hanging space in wardrobe and a good shower. Very good cooked breakfast

Cons:

No biscuits on tea tray, no decafe tea. The folding bathroom door was difficult I would have got stuck if not for my hubby. Hard pillows and only shampoo and a bar of soap, no shower gel and plastic throw away cups in bathroom. No fresh fruit at breakfast.
