Everything good except the room.

Great pub with good food. Great service. Room however was very small and my door would open to all in event of a fire alarm as my room was part of a fire escape.

Great location, well priced and friendly.

Great little spot for those wishing to do the “Mach Loop”. Great location with plenty of supermarkets nearby. The rooms were all clean and well presented and the pub is very friendly with plenty of food options for breakfast until late.

We arrived after an 80 mile bike ride and were eager to get a shower and a good meal. The team were expecting us and had the key ready; check-in was very welcoming and efficient. The rooms were very clean and comfortable. Despite the restaurant being very busy (Saturday 8pm) our meals came without delay and were hot, hearty and very tasty. Wouldnt think twice about staying again next time we're in the area.

Shower is very small, though I’m not a small person, the room was spacious and clean. Ideal for a quick stop over. Food in the bar is typical fare but well presented.

Pleasant stay

Easy to check in and neat and tidy room. There was quite a lot of noise from the bar, however, this closed at a reasonable time, so no issue sleeping.

Great central location

Stayed here as a family. We were on a biking trip in the local area. Location was great and in the centre of town. The rooms were clean and well equipped with a nice shower and bathroom. We are in the pub on the evening. The food was fine, decent pub grub.

We loved the room, it was really comfortable and clean and having the bar for food was really welcome and the food was lovely. The bar was very busy and it was hot so we weren't sure if the staff had just had a long day but the welcome was a bit stiff and the staff didn't seem bothered whether we were there or not as guests. The location was great for where we were going and the room was top notch, so we could forgive that. It was a brilliant location though and a great base for most of mid Wales.
