Stayed for 2 days early February and hotel has had a transformation! Compared to last years stay. The beer is amazing. The staff was so courteous and polite. 
I will be visiting again in March with the family this time.

Superb

We stayed for two nights and it cost £100. The room wasn't disgusting but very strange, dated and gave us a few laughs.

We arrived, I went for a pee in our en suite and had to get my wife to let me out as the door handle came off in my hand, god forbid I was there on my own, I may still be stuck in the bathroom from the 70's.

Could only get 11 channels on their new freeview TV that didn't include any BBC channels so it made watching the 6 Nations really difficult.

No kettle in the room so I had to walk the corridor to the urn and make tea there, after blowing dust out of one mug and a dead spider corpse from the other.

On our final morning I went to make our morning cuppa and the urn had been turned off, 25 minutes later the water was hot enough to make tea.

The booking.com site states 12:00 check out, but a member of staff accosted me and said she likes people to be out by 10:30 despite what the website says.

She then just opened the door next to the urn without knocking and walked in, I then heard her apologise to the guest she'd just walked in on.

It was rough and ready, I'm a huge fan of the 70's and would have loved this step back in time normally, but not at 2017 prices.

Will we return............... no.

Good luck to all future visitors

Tired ? No, Exhausted !

Arrived to stay in so called apartment, I wasn’t expecting much anyway but when we checked in all of us where left in shock! 
Never mind old and basic-that is acceptable, but dirty and unsafe No!
At least two out of six beds had dirty bedding, stained pillows and ripped bed bases, felt like someone brought them off the street! Piles of dust on the shelves, skirtings and wardrobes. 
Kitchen was filthy, broken cabinets, dirt and rot inside them, you could go on and on! 
Definitely avoid, if I can upload the pictures you’d be left in shock!

Apartment, avoid at all costs!!!

I went for a night out last Saturday and witnessed a terrible attack on a young girl by three women two of them were staff, the young girl was dragged by her hair and thrown to the floor on trying to get back up she was pushed back down,I had been watching the young girl because of a boy and girl shouting at her and causing a scene it should have been them that was thrown out but they were friendly with the staff ,this really was an ugly unprovoked attack on a young girl

Violence from staff and others

Very poor excuse for a hotel, we've stayed here before some time ago and while then it was basic, it was still better, clean and value for money.

I am hoping the photo's speak for themselves here, the general state of the room is terrible, they are dirty, and most of the furniture is falling apart, the walls are paper thin you can hear your neighbour peeing, and every other noise they may make!!!!!!

The shower in our room was useless, it can't maintain a temperature, and was scolding hot for 10 seconds following by about 30 seconds of freezing cold, this was the cycle no matter what, there was also a loud noise that could be herd in our room, which sounded like a water pump, the scolding hot cycle on the shower coincided with the pump noise and went cold when it wasn't pumping, finding staff to complain was not possible, the cleaners weren't interested, Having a bath was more successful, but baths are really not my thing!

The back of the door was thick with dust (and yet we were told they have 3 cleaners in the pub... doing what?) the carpet was stained, even my pillow was dirty, it looked like mascara smudges, but didn't come out on my photos.

We were warned about the music in the function room (a private party supposedly) but what they actually mean is a nightclub will be running below your room (no I am not joking) they have Door Supervisors on the hotel doors, so when you come back to the room you have to struggle through the drunk people all smoking and get past the Door Supervisors, we even witnessed someone cutting coke on the screen of their mobile phone on the premises!!

Also there was another "nightclub" type evening on the Sunday night, which we were not warned about, same scenario as the previous night, although I can say it was marginally quieter (it wasn't vibrating in the room like it was the night before).

We were told on arrival that check out was 11am, and this was also confirmed in an email, and yet at 10am the cleaners were knocking on peoples doors asking how long we are going to be as they want to clean the rooms, this we had seen with other people in other rooms over the weekend, I had another guest ask me on Monday morning where he might find the manager, I had no idea but asked if he did find them if they could point me in their direction...

Our room didn't even have a window, we had the one skylight you can see in my pictures, which you obviously can't see out of, and the blinds on the skylight were broken so at the crack of dawn the sun comes up, and you are very much awake, having been kept up until 1am it's not great.

None of the rooms seem to have a kettle, and our room only had one mug (which was a giant "freebie" mug with advertising on the side) and hot water is from an urn down the hall, I mean really? Are you serious? in this day and age? Also the area around the urn were covered in stains, looks like water has been running down the walls, and the fire door (which is never closed) has broken glass in it.

There are loads of places to stay near by, this isn't cheap, it cost us £50 a night, you can stay in local 4 star hotels for £60 with breakfast, save your money, don't stay here... it is NOT a hotel.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!

The hotel offers breakfast from mon to fri but on our arrival we were curtly told they did not do breakfast! The place is run down, dirty and in a poor state of repair. There may also be health and safety issues with broken switches and fittings. There was a communal tea making facility on the landing with a constantly boiling urn of water which was unsecured and cleaning materials/items  are stored in the hallway.

Avoid  Awful

Visit to Crickhowell for family wedding. This hotel is the worst advert for Welsh tourism you can imagine.

I hate complaining. I am a typical reticent English person who never complains about anything but this really took the biscuit! I was absolutely astounded that somewhere providing accommodation could be like this in the 21st-century. It was incredibly poor and needs a considerable amount spending on it which has not been spent probably in the last 25 years. The pub area was dirty, uninviting and full of old false-work ( stupid looking false beams and stonework like something out of the dungeons at Madame Tussaud's ). The route to the bedrooms was even less inviting and had no charm whatsoever. The whole place had very old carpets, was not clean, and with a staircase that was verging on dangerous. A boiling tea urn at the end of the corridor provides hot water for the tea and coffee provided in the bedrooms - astonishing! At first the bedroom looked vaguely acceptable. We did not have a lot of time so simply dumped our bags and went to the wedding. The following morning showed that the room was dirty the only thing that was clean was the linen otherwise we would've refused to stay. The bathroom had tiles falling off the wall over the shower. The shower itself was either really hot and dangerous or freezing cold and spilt water everywhere.  There was what I suspect is a sewage pumping unit which operates when a toilet is flushed or sink is drained and this woke us up in the middle of the night. Moreover when it operates the lights dim significantly . I dread to think what the electrics are like!
When we left in the morning the pub or shut up and there was no one around to complain to. I can only say that having spent a night in Addis Ababa in Ethiopia - a third world country- the hotel there was appalling and the Old  Red Lion was probably worse. when we left in the morning the pub is shut up and there was no one around to complain to.

Do not stay here!  This hotel is the worst advert for Welsh tourism you can imagine
