Ein wirklich gute Unterkunft in sehr guter Lage.
Pros:

Der hoteleigene Parkplatz, die ideale Lage (wenige Minuten zur Kathedrale und den umliegenden Lokalen). Das Frühstück wurde frisch zubereitet und war lecker.

Cons:

Die Servicekraft beim Frühstück könnte etwas mehr auf die aufzufüllenden Produkte und die Kaffeemaschine achten.

A huge disappointment
Pros:

In spite of the big price differences, we decided not to stay at a modern chain like Premier inn or Travelodge in favour of a traditional country hotel and St David's Cross seemed the doyen of the town's hotels.

We were very unhappy therefore to be accommodated in one of the smallest rooms we have ever stayed in, hardly wider than the bed, with one small window at the far end made even less effective by being recessed into a 15 inch wall so that no light or air got through. One might imagine that lighting might try to compensate for that but the ceiling light was such low wattage that it was difficult to read by it.

The bathroom was similarly minute. There was no tray or shelf to put soap or shampoo in the shower so it had to go on the floor but the cubicle was so small that it was almost impossible to reach the floor.

The heating in the bedroom was erratic but in the bathroom it was non existent so that the towels we used on the first night were still damp on our second night.

The room was supposed to be serviced but that didn't include hoovering and the sheets were just pulled up over the comb and book that had been on the bed, which we found the next night.

We might have taken a more tolerant attitude if it were not, first, that the illustrations on the website showed a totally different style and size of room, which was more than misleading and, second, that this was an expensive room. At £140 per night, it was almost the same as our last stay in London.

The staff at reception and the dining rooms were all exceptionally pleasant but they couldnt make up for the poor quality of the product
