“I found this Victorian hotel to be a place where you get both a sense of history and a friendly, community vibe. With its proximity to Barry Island and Cardiff, and live music nights in the bar, it strikes me as a solid choice for those seeking a social hub. It offers a refreshing take on a classic stay.”

The room felt a bit tired. the radiator in my room didn't work properly. It was cold. the staff didn't seem too concerned. also, the wi-fi was only available in the bar, but even there, it was unreliable. i really needed it for work.
