2/10 Poor

Nothing like the photos. Very out dated and not clean. From entering the hotel, the entrance not clean or welcoming. All key were on a table by the door. Dirty carpets. Leading up to our room dirty carpets and hadn’t been decorated for along time. All doors to the rooms were open. All scruffy rooms. Quit covers massive for the quilts and hanging to the floor. We walked into our , very scruffy and floor to the bathroom very stained and not clean. At this point we decided that we would not be staying at this hotel. Not worth £89.00 per night. We have asked for a refund with hotels.com

Steven Cook: 5 stars

Castle Lodge, I was in room 1. it was a nice hotel. I recommend it to stay there. The people the owners was very nice and made me feel welcome. I would stay there again. The breakfast was okay and offered me a pack lunch to take with me because I had a long way to go. I would recommend four stars.⭐ ⭐️⭐️⭐️

2/10 Poor

Shocking

I cannot believe this hotel is rated as good. Filthy carpets on way to rooms, halway covered in dirt, cobwebs in the room, dust on all the furniture, bed was as soft as marshmallow, no soap in toilet, just terrible. In fact it was that bad we didn't even stay, we just handed back the keys and walked out despite losing our payment.

6/10 Good

Not the best stay I have had

Very dated hotel , in some places very dirty on the way up to your room the wall were dirty and carpet The breakfast was a Continental which was not advertised when booking
Gareth, 3-night trip

4/10 Fair

Very poor value.

Room given not as picture on-line. Non atmospheric, soulless venue. Poor menu selection for an alleged hotel. More a pub with bedrooms. Paid £125, very disappointed.
Christopher, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Room seemed to be mid-renovation, with some things looking new and others in need of replacing or upgrading. We booked and arrived very late so were grateful they could accommodate that. Maybe the room had only been partially cleaned from the previous stay due to the late notice? The bed was clean and well-made, but there was rubbish in the drawers and it hadn't been hoovered. Toilet didn't look clean either. The next day I asked if someone could hoover and they did, but not very well and with either an old hoover or one that needed emptying (it left behind that musky smell that old hoovers have). There was plenty of space to hang and store clothes and a small tea & coffee station, but only one mug and one spoon for a double room. Very limited supply of toiletries, though we take our own everywhere so not a massive issue for us. It was day 3 before we got a top-up of toilet roll so we'd been replenishing it ourselves. The (cream) carpet was heavily stained and really needs replacing. We could see other rooms had new-looking grey carpet, which added to the feeling of it being mid-renovation. There was a squashed spider on the bathroom ceiling and lots of cobwebs. It was okay as a low-budget option. Could be a lovely place to stay with more attention to detail.

The staff were nice enough on arrival, showed us to our room and we left for wedding. We didn't come back until midnight and the smell of musty damp was present. The kitchenette units were full of crumbs, there were cobwebs and spiders above the one single bed which we had to get rid of before sleeping. The sink in the one bathroom fills water and takes a while to go down. We returned the keys this morning and no mention of breakfast (which i later seen was meant to be included) Was ok, in need of a good revamp.

Ok for one night stayed in a lot worse

Arrived to be told someone was given my room by mistake waited 10-15 mins not sure what was going on but give a room size that I had paid for so not sure if someone was moved or the room wasn’t ready so they quickly cleaned it. Staff were friendly enough but the place is dated some attempt at updating with new carpets and paint there was mould in the corner of the bathroom and bed wasn’t bed comfortable it’s a bit 6 out of 10 for effort. Breakfast was Continental not stated on the booking annoyingly as I had a long day at work ahead. There was funny smell like stale smoke in the room or something like that you got used to it but it was there

Great little place.

Parking was easy, staff were absolutely wonderful, nothing too much trouble, room was clean, everything we needed, great water pressure in the showers, great chippy next door which we enjoyed relaxing in the room, plus a free continental breakfast. Can not fault anything

The room shown when booking and the room given to us was very different. It was right in the basement. Lots of mosquitoes and bugs. This was despite them having other rooms empty when we checked in, but they didnt give us one. Not recommended.

2/10 Poor

Proprieter stunk of smoke. Advert did not show the chip shop attached to the hotel. Choice of smells , fish and chips or cigarette smoke. Carpets stained. Different smell of wee inside hotel. Dirty cups in room, mouldy shower mats, booken windows in room with dead flies on window sills. Broken glass outside in car park. Left after 10 minutes.

Quick Stopover

Quick stopover enroute to another destination. Clean comfortable had everything required but don’t expect luxury. Very happy with accommodation for the price 😊

4/10 Fair

Chose this place after a day of hiking in Brecon. It’s a pub/chippy with a few rooms. Reception in the bar. Got taken to room which was outside, downstairs. Room was cold, and partly used as a storage room. Wasn’t very clean. Was a kitchenette there but no utensils to make use of it. The boiler cupboard in the room had a few dirty duvets, decorating material and other items that belonged elsewhere. The noise from the room/bar above travelled through and disturbed us all. The room serves a purpose after a day of hiking, and we only stayed there because we were tired. We chose to use the hotel chippy for food and also regretted that - it wasn’t very nice. Apparently the owners are quite new and finding their feet so I feel a bit hard for this review but we didn’t enjoy our stay. The breakfast was poor - a bunch of instant coffee, poor quality bread for toasting and that’s about it. We didn’t see a staff member at all apart from check in. Overall, I would recommend for a means to an end type of stay, but if you want a bit more of a personal service then go to a Travelodge.
