Przyjemny wypad
Pros:

Nasz pobyt był krótki, bo jednodniowy ale nocleg oceniamy bardzo dobrze :) Na miejscu było czysto i schludnie, a zadbane pokoje czekały na nasz przyjazd. Łóżka były wygodne. Ranek przywitał nas przepysznym lokalnym śniadaniem, które zapewniło nam energię na cały dzień. Obiekt usytuowany jest w nieco większej odległości od centrum, lecz z tym można zapoznać się przed rezerwacją - dla nas lokalizacja była korzystna. Jeśli ponownie mielibyśmy odwiedzić Merthyr Tydfil, z pewnością wybralibyśmy The Antelope Hotel. Można tam naładować swoje baterie, tak żeby później mieć energię na spacery w pobliskich górach i wzgórzach.

Cons:

Nie mieliśmy uwag. :)
