Very good value for money
Pros:

Very good location for the Welsh Show and town. Room was basic but well appointed and very clean

Cons:

Noise from a refrigerated lorry parked outside hotel on 2nd night. This was through no fault of the hotel and I understand the management contacted the owners to have it turned off by 11:30pm.

Overpriced and outdated
Pros:

The one staff member was nice and tried to accommodate but its a losing battle when the place is so run down. The internet was adequate.

Cons:

For £110+ a night this is overpriced. The rooms are in desperate need of renovation. There was no light by the bed or nightstand. The walls were all marked

Pros:

The parking is good for a motorcycle although I still put 2 locks and a bike cover on. Good parking for cars my single room was adequate for me easy to get my bike gear in short walk through the fire exit door the shower was a good size and nice and hot and the towels nice and clean there's tea and coffee in the room also a tv i had a good night's sleep it was nice and quiet i would stay here again 😀

Cons:

Finding it isn't as easy as you think it would be better if it had hotel signs once inside the show ground (they do send you a text message telling you how to get in though) there was not any food available at the hotel when I arrived although I could have had a ride back into town with a few different food venues open but I chose an early night they do a breakfast i think it's £10 I didn't have one as I had a early start

A charmless last resort if there is nothing else available.
Pros:

It was fairly quiet.

Cons:

The description and the photos are misleading. It’s much shabbier than the photos make it look. I had breakfast once only: it was terrible.

Great location but rooms are what you’d expect on a school residential
Pros:

Good location. Breakfast available. Secure carpark

Cons:

Mattresses very uncomfortable! Window blind didn’t shut fully so let a lot of light through in the morning, causing us to wake up. No dressing mirror. Room seemed tired. Bathroom ok but electric shower not the most powerful in the world. All in all, definitely not value for money. Won’t be staying again

Pros:

Great value for money, warm, comfortable, clean - very friendly and accommodating staff went out of their way to help us with bike storage, drying wet clothes etc.

Cons:

Nothing really - shower water pressure could have been better, and it's a walk from the village but not too far, but neither thing a real issue!
