Expensive room, don't forget to budget for breakfast and parking.
Pros:

Location was terrific. The room was decent, with quality linen. Clean and tidy.

Cons:

£150 a night without breakfast, without parking, without aircon - far too expensive. The shower was scalding hot even on its coldest setting. Poor instructions on the keysafe procedure. I didn't rate New Quay much (Sunday evening).

Perfect location, lots to do, if the things mentioned above were in place, our night would’ve been more pleasurable!
Pros:

Location, absolutely spot on. Pub next door was fantastic!

Cons:

No fans provided. Given it was the week we had a heatwave!
I did message (politely) just to inform them that maybe it might be a good idea to provide fans for the rooms. Sadly, there response came across as rude!
After several reviews saying how hot it was in the rooms, a fan should’ve been provided without having to ask! Given the circumstances.
No fridge to put cold drinks in. Little things that could’ve made a difference in the hot weather 🥰

Pros:

Location excellent near car park , pub, restaurant, harbour. Could go in front or back by car park. Very clean, lots of tea and coffee etc comfy beds. Nice sheets and lovely towels.Had a fan.

Cons:

It was very dark even with all the lights on. No main light only table lamps. Very hot but did have a fan. My partner kept bashing his head as ceilings and doors low and he hit his head on a wall light. windows very low.. no hair conditioner. Have to get out of shower to adjust it and turn it off. Shower door doesnt stop water from going on the floor.No on site staff. No parking. Rooms named after murderers.

Nice stay at the Inn
Pros:

The location was excellent The bed was large and comfy The shower was good The Pepper Pot next door was a good place to eat We parked in the car park behind the Inn but it fills up quick

Cons:

We only stayed one night as we were staying in an apartment and came a day early if I stayed longer having to use key codes to get in the property and then a different one into the room was abit of a pain but having no reception or staff it made it secure and it wouldn't put me off staying in future
