Pros:

Large room with a sofa and a large TV. The room was warm and had a beautiful window with a north aspect, so nice in winter. Comfortable bed and modern bathroom. Parking and easy check-in. Good value.

Cons:

No where to hang your clothes. Loud party next door run all night, which spoilt our our stay

Old style pub close to amenities and Swansea Channel. Great dining and bar facilities. Definitely recommend.
Pros:

Our room (no 8) and ensuite bathroom were very spacious and clean and comfortable. Staff were friendly and helpful. Pub had a great bar and dining setup with inside and outside areas.

Cons:

The only thing was access is only by stairs which mightn’t suit some people, especially carrying baggage.

Pros:

I like the location. Smack in the middle of Swanseaa main strip.
I've stayed here a few times now.
This stay was my first time in a room with a private bathroom & my daughter & I thought it was great. Comfortable bed, nice new bathroom. Could look out the window and see my car down in the carpark.

Cons:

The doors are a bit stiff, have to pull them hard shut & it's a bit loud, we were worried about upsetting the other rooms each time we came in & out because of this.
