Staff were all very good, friendly, polite and helpful. The communal areas of the hotel are very nice in the main though the rooms are tired and in need of an update. Our room was though very comfortable. Our first room had an issue with the locking mechanism

The breakfast wasn’t particularly warm, but the room was too warm.
The hotel is looking a bit “tired” in places but it was conveniently placed and the parking was good.
The staff we dealt with were all friendly.
You could have more Gluten Free options on the menu.

Traveling as a family of four with older children, no lock on bathroom doors, room with sea view was a good size but other room was a bit small for our needs. Dog was allowed which was brilliant. Room was great for a short term stay.

Very pleasant - Never judge a book by it's cover
The hotel looks pretty tired from outside but rooms and reception area had been updated to an excellent standard. Breakfast was great with plenty of choices.
Only slightly negative comment is that the breakfast was served in a large ball room which lacked atmosphere. A few flower arrangements separating the tables from the large dance floor would have made the difference.

Great for one or two nights
The breakfast was decent (eggs rubbery however), but a great selection.
The room was clean, with two bathrooms (one disabled access and one without). There was people running up and down corridors at one point at night and slamming doors and knocking, on the upstairs floor. but the reception didn’t answer when I called down (unless they were sorting the culprits out as it did stop eventually)
Bar area looked nice. We didn’t sit in it however but looked decent.
The person on reception was really nice.
The outside of the hotel doesn’t look appealing I’ll be honest, but it’s fine once you walk in.
Car parking free once you validate your registration.

The location is great . The food and service is excellent.
Hotel is a little tired and has a few layers of paint .
Bed was comfortable. Shower overbath was usable the water was generally hot but fluctuated.
Would probably stay again as the price of the room reflected this.

Our room was spacious and comfortable, but very hot, even though two portable fans were provided, because the heating pipes were permanently on, but even so, the availability of hot water was unreliable. Lovely view of the beach and across the bay to The Mumbles.

2/10 Poor
Rain water leaking through the window, off the windowsill and onto the radiatior and floor below. Staff must have known about the issue as there was a towel already set up on the windowsil soaking up rain water. I requested to move room which they did promptly. Had to wait 5+ minutes at the bar as no one around, the person in front of me waited 10 minutes. They served the person behind me first. The food arrived and a chef came over after my food had been served and asked to take a photo of my plate as they were a trainee chef - very odd. I tried to have a shower at 6.30am and the water was stone cold. I informed reception and they said i had to leave the shower running for 10 minutes before hot water comes through. All in all, a very unrelaxing stay.

Ok, good location
Stayed overnight to be close to the office. Reception is nice, clean, spacious. However there was a £10 extra charge for my pet which I only found out at check in. The room was very dated. It was extremely hot. As soon as I entered I turned the radiator to the lowest setting, opened the window as wide as possible and it was still far too warm hours later. There was an event on so the music was loud and worse from the open window. No ironing board or iron- had to request these. Brought my own water for my dog and because the room was so warm even it was roasting
