Great place at a great price!
Pros:

The place was clean, the design of the room was nice and modern, and the bed was very confortable. We enjoyed being in the cottage; being separate from the main building meant we didn’t have the noise of the pub and we could park just outside our room, very convenient! We appreciated all the amenities: having a microwave, fridge and kettle was exactly what we needed.

Cons:

There was a locked door in the room that separated it from the lobby of the other rooms. It was just a normal door so we could hear everything happening on the other side (and they could hear us). Some soundproofing around the door would help with privacy and would make it feel safer too.
Fridge is also very loud, would recommend earplugs to any light/difficult sleepers :)

A great resteraunt
Pros:

The food was exceptional the rooms were a bit noisy, I was above the kitchen and something was used quite early in the morning. The beds were really comfortable and it was very clean. Definitely going to go back again

Cons:

I'm a little older and I found staying there a bit noisy but not for too long

Friendly, clean, good food and location
Pros:

Very clean, good food, ideal location for the ferry port

Good location and comfortable enough
Pros:

Fantastic location near the sea and pretty central in Pembrokeshire for exploring other places.
Great breakfast - although, it does say it’s a £14pp charge for brekkie and it transpires you actually just pay as you go/for what you have which felt a little misleading.
Bed was super comfy

Cons:

The photos on here unfortunately felt misleading .. the en suite was actually tiny (room 3), shower smelt damp and constantly dripped so I had to leave the shower head on the floor.
The WiFi details in the room are not the one that actually work in the room. Meaning the TV also does not work. Also misleading when it states TV & Netflix included, and you can’t access either.
Toilet roll holder broken.
Room noisy and hot (with no cooling aids/fans etc). The noise wasn’t so unexpected to be honest though when you’re staying above a pub and on a road.
No hand wash in the bathroom felt like a basic hygiene miss. I did mention the above issues (par the heat) at breakfast the first morning and she kindly got me a hand wash there & then.

I also don’t think I saw any owners which felt a shame to not see any ‘face’ of the hotel.
