The hotel has some room issues with dated decor and maintenance needs, but the overall experience was slightly marred by some cleanliness concerns in the bathroom. The room layout felt cramped due to excessive furniture. However, the limescale in the bath jets was a letdown.

The hotel is in a wonderful location, perfect for exploring the Brecon Beacons, offering a peaceful setting. The rooms were a bit noisy due to a nearby disco and water sistern, but still provided lovely views and were suitable for a single occupant. The dining experience left something to be desired with limited options and organizational issues, but the handmade pasta was a standout. Price and value for money were reasonable overall.
