Reviewer Type: Solo Traveller
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Lovely staff who were friendly and helpful, they also put up great Halloween decorations. Good location really close to the Pen y Fan and Corn Du peaks walk which are fantastic. Fully equipped kitchen with everything you need to cook properly. Common areas are clean and tidy. Decent wifi (in the common area only). Many other lovely women were in my shared dorm.
Negative: Showers were quite unpleasant - obviously everything is cleaned daily but there were gross bits of hair, fluff, and other debris all over the shower walls and where you hang your towel which made showering very unpleasant. Room door was really squeaky so it was noisy at night. Dry room was ineffective. Carpark got really full some of the time and is a long walk up the hill when it’s fully dark out or when it’s raining (ok during the day). No wifi or mobile reception in the rooms so you are disconnected from family. Loud screaming children occupied the common areas for two days.
