Alford Vacation Packages

Upon arrival the room was relatively clean and straightened out nicely. Decorated to an OK standard. However, the room itself was absolutely sweltering and could've done with a fan or a portable air conditioning unit. I had to open both the windows wide to let some cool air in.....which unfortunately let the screaming and shouting from outside in too. But hey, I've booked something in the heart of student land so that's sort of on me as well! As far as cleanliness goes....look a little closer you'll see things aren't so great and definitely lacks attention to detail in that are. Not the worst but certainly not the best. It looks like shower gel, handwash and shampoo were provided once upon a time but now all that remain are empty containers. This is such a basic thing so either do it or don't. Kitchenette area was reasonably clean with utensils, plates bowls and a dishwasher provided. Overall, it was OK but could do better. It seems like somebody has lost interest in it!

Air conditioning was not cold. Decor was amazing. Conveniently located.

Hotel was lovely, bit outdated in room. No lighting so was hard to see. Pool was little cold and hot tub wasn't working for the two days we were there. Surroundings were lovely, nice breakfast and selection of drinks at the bar. Would be an idea to tell people of the cost of taxis before attending as there is no taxi service about and they have to come from Newport. So for a 5 minute drive into the town costs £22!
