8/10 Very good

Lovely and clean although noise from upstairs when staying on the ground floor was audible and seemingly unavoidable. That aside, it’s a cosy little spot that I would highly recommend as an affordable option to anyone looking to explore the Brecons. The information provided by the hosts on local amenities and things to do was thorough and very informative. All in all a solid stay.

Great studio apartment

Great studio apartment, perfect for what I needed it for. The homemade Welsh cakes were a lovely touch.

8/10 Very good

The room smells clean as you come in, always a great start. Spotlessly clean. Rooms are ensuite with a little kitchen area, all decorated differently. We had a little table to eat at as well. Chocolates and home made Welsh cakes with milk in the fridge was a nice touch. Self check in with a pin code key box. Building felt secure. Great views of the hills from the top room. Street parking available just outside the front door. A couple of convenience stores very close. Great location for visiting Merthyr.

Clean place with lovely home made snacks on arrival. We didnt meet due to Covid but the instructions were clear. So we had no issue. The door was hard to open first time, just need to press the buttons slowly and firmly as James mentioned in the email. Nice big TV in the room.
