Wonderful. Will stay again and definitely recommend to others!
Pros:

Clean, comfortable, great bar. Although breakfast wasn’t included (I had a good price anyway), it was delicious, great value for money. I had an evening meal too, which again was great value and very enjoyable. Nice big accessible car park made things so much easier. Check in very quick. Perfect location for a long weekend - near Dyfi Osprey project and RSPB Ynys Hir - which we were there to visit.

Cons:

Nothing. It was very good. I would recommend to anyone and look forward to staying there again some day. Lovely member of staff on the Saturday morning who took my breakfast order deserves a shout out.
