NO Breakfast

Lets start with the positives , Really good shower , excellent TV with Netflix . Hard work to find somebody to check in , never saw a member of staff after that . the pub is a typical high street pub on a Saturday , so not appealing to eat , but they closed the kitchen at 7.30 so not an issue . My biggest gripe however was NO breakfast , not told on arrival , happened to read it on a piece of paper in the room , not what you expect from a room that cost £100+ . oh and I did not get offered the voucher ( see photo ) . , "walk to Greggs my arse" wont be booking again

Excellent find and very affordable hotel

Great little place in Treorchy. Very impressed with the rooms and very polite and helpful staff. Only drawback is more structural as there seems to be subsidence (or similar) and this causes the shower to overflow onto the floor and out of the tray (seems it is leaning to the door and not going down the drain. Rm 1. Creating wet area having to ram the floor towel to stop it going everywhere. Not a criticism but maybe add bigger door seals at the bottom of the shower door or put a higher lip on the 'tray' etc.
