Extensive accumulation of black mold on interior paintwork of bathroom window sashes. Bedroom lower sash weight unbalanced: sash had to be propped-up to stay open. No cutlery, no plates or bowls. No tea towel. Room not serviced during week-long stay -waste accumulated un-removed. Long wait for hot water to come through to bathroom sink (no heat trace on water line?) Window treatment(s) missing/removed from sitting room window: uncontrollable, uncomfortably-blinding glare from sun in early evening. Need to get out of bed to turn off right hand bedside light switch. Otherwise excellent with superb view west to St David’s Cathedral and beyond. Neil a fine host: very good pre-arrival communication.

Nice view of St Davids. Wifi was sketchy and the bedroom needs curtains or a black out shade. Too much light very early in morning.

Property was in a great location, but is a little tired and needs some TLC. Check in was tricky due to lack of signal in the area and there was no breakfast available which was disappointing.

I always try and give a balanced review so that any criticisms are taken as genuine feedback in order that improvements can be made for the benefit of both Proprietor and guests. It is not intended to be a moan! Location, view of cathedral excellent. Booked a Luxury En Suite for 190 GBP a night. Expedia states Daily Housekeeping, which having booked 3 nights expected bedding and towels to be changed at least once and replenishing of coffee etc, this didn't happen and by the end of our stay they were dirty, and bins were overflowing. Bed linen is Polyester, looked and felt tired and washed out, pillows were uncomfortable and again didn't feel like a quality product. Other guests have commented on the lack on poor quality blinds, letting light into the bedroom and the fact there is no door between the bedroom and lounge, and no blind on the lounge window, meant we were awake by 5.30am. The kettle had a short lead and required us to put it on the floor and plug into one of two 6 way extension leads. Not sure this is legal?but a pain nonetheless. Black mould around the shower base, a few squirts of Mould Remover would fix. Finally the laminated wood floor was dirty, such that when my wife took her white socks off having walked around for a few minutes they were black. A good mopping needed. None of these issues would be difficult or expensive to fix-Mattress, bed linen, towels, kettle, mould, daily housekeeping/cleaning. Then they could justifiably advertise it as Luxury
