My room was spotlessly clean with a comfy bed with nice white linen and a spotless bathroom with bath and shower and fluffy white towels. There was a big flat screen tv (I didn’t use it) and a view over the rooftops down to the sea. I slept very well. Just be aware as it is an old Victorian house that the sound proofing isn’t brilliant. I could hear a child running around and crying in the room above me early evening but I slept undisturbed. Very good stay for one night in Swansea as I was passing through. And Lynn the owner was very helpful and charming when we spoke on the phone (I booked last minute so she gave me the instructions to self check in - all v easy). Thanks. ##### Helen Stayed 1 night in Aug 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jul 27, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Lovely, spacious room.

The bed was crippling. A woman attempted to break into our room while we were dressing the next morning. We checked out two nights early because of the discomfort & safety issue. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2019 ### 4/10 Poor #### Elizabeth Nov 8, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Not a room, but an igloo I appreciate first of all that this was a cheap room, but only because advertised at 50% discount so should have been £52 per night. The room was like an icebox and the radiator had been jammed to off position. I therefore had to layer up in clothing and even put my outer jacket on when going to sleep. As the premises are unmanned, there is a telephone number for guests to call - this number did not connect to a person. Therefore I was not able to get any help with this. It was the most uncomfortable situation to be in. Definitely not recommended during cold spells ##### Elizabeth Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Alan Oct 23, 2019 Liked: Room comfort #### Disappointing stay. We stayed in room 2, a family room of 1 x double and 2 x single beds. Beds comfortable enough, although the sheets etc were clean, they did smell strongly of washing powder? An issue with the main curtain is that it did not close in the middle and the resulting 6" gap provided enough light to almost illuminate the room via the streetlamp directly outside. The bathroom although clean did not have a plug for the hand basin which meant running water whilst having a shave and one of the handles to the shower has the appearance and feel of being badly corroded so suggest this needs to be replaced. So why not complain well - my biggest issue is with the parking so the required number to discuss was called (and message left with name and phone number) and here 2 days later, still no response. My belief from the description given re parking was there would be parking close to the hotel which is on a main road. Whilst I missed the online text indicating parking was based on fitting in with local residents, I did not expect either to have to park so far away or to have to move my car before 09.00\. (can park between 18.00 and 08.00 then for 1 hour no return for 2 hours meaning leave by 09.00). There seems to be no provision at all to park on site. Altogether a disappointing stay although with some tweaks many issues could be corrected. ##### Alan Stayed 1 night in Oct 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### mark Oct 18, 2019 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Awful smell of damp Throughout, bed was obviously old worn out mattress. ##### mark Stayed 1 night in Oct 2019 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Eldbjørg Sep 23, 2019 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Styr unna!

When the room door was opened, what a terrible picture! There was a rubbish bin right in the middle of the room, the naked mattress has neither quilt and nor sheet or bed cover. The cup was placed by the sink, the kettle was up next to the window with its leads dropping to the floor, a broken part was on the floor as well. Dirty with bad smell! When contacted the telephone number several times, a replacement was given in a basement room without window, which is hard to breath during the hot summer night. Later, about 21:30, a room in another location was given, and a taxi has to be used to go there.

If i had paid £75 per night i wouldn't have been disappointed, however, we paid £193 for one night and expected a little more at that price... ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jul 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Jul 7, 2019 Was given several codes to enter the propert and retrieve room key from a key box. A 4 figure code was required-but a 3 figure code was supplied. I called the number supplied several times but it was engaged. A zero was missing from the code but I only worked that out by luck. On opening the box there was no key inside. It took several more calls to get an answer by which time I had already overrun in the time taken off work to check in. There was little sense of urgency considering I was standing in a self check in property unable to check in. Itvteamspored the key had been kept by the previous occupant and there was no duplicate. The Alexander was full that day so I was booked into a guest house across the road. That guest house was a typically dated cramped (but thankfully clean) seaside b & b. If this was an upgrade I’m glad I couldn’t get into the original place. I wasn’t offered any compensation so I had paid for a room I didn’t stay in and had to stay in an alternative I would never have chosen myself. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jul 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Miriam Jul 3, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### geht so. Die Lage ist gut. Leider hatte unser Zimmer kein Fenster und lag im Keller. Das Bett war zudem instabil und brach schon vom bloßen Hinsetzen zusammen. ##### Miriam Stayed 1 night in Jun 2019 ### 4/10 Poor #### Gareth Jul 1, 2019 Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Below parr Basement room, shared smelly bathroom, was expecting an ensuite bathroom. Extremely noisy room, the room above banged on the floor everytime my friend orgasmed, sound proofing needs to be improved. ##### Gareth Stayed 1 night in Jun 2019 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller Jun 1, 2019 Disliked: Staff & service I was paid extra for parking, when I arrived here couldn’t find parking spaces, email text and call them million times no one answered, after 5 and half hours they answer me, bathroom didn’t w shower gel .only have a hand wash . The mattress is horrible really uncomfortable, disappointed for this hotel ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in May 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Pamela May 4, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A comfortable stay, after an initial mishap sorted Unfortunately, I discovered a bit of a mishap, upon arrival at the Alexander, where I had rebooked a comfortable single room that I had stayed in two years ago. There was water pouring through my bathroom ceiling, due to a sudden problem with the shower floor's plumbing in the room above. One of "those things" that can happen in older properties,! Both of the affected rooms in the Alexander were immediately closed for repairs, so my review now applites to the White House. The hotel's owners could not have been kinder and displayed exceptional customer service, promptly upgrading me to a lovely double room in another hotel of theirs, just up the road. I was very comfortable and contented in the White House for the rest of my stay. ##### Pamela Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Mar 9, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness Parking is the only problem we had but it is located close to restaurants, shops and bars ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Mar 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Mar 5, 2019 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort The stay was very good, apart from a condom that was found by the bed but the manger and owner sorted out quickly so not bad stay for the first time. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Feb 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Feb 22, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The room was clean and was ok for what I needed but it was alot smaller than I imagined. My cruise ship room was bigger than what we had but It was clean and served our purpose to wash/sleep. Staff awnser mobile very quick when I realised I had the pig of a parking space at the back but couldn't get on it due to obsticals so offered to move everything in 10mins of my text. Will deffo recommended and will be back. Location is 20 mins walk from town, plenty of places to eat and go out on sketty road ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2019 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [The Grove Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Haverfordwest-Hotels-The-Grove-Hotel.h36706330.Hotel-Information) > > [Seattle Airport Marriott](https://www.expedia.ca/Seattle-Hotels-Seattle-Airport-Marriott.h6679.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Quartier Latin Montréal](https://www.expedia.ca/Montreal-Hotels-Hotel-Quartier-Latin-Montreal.h890030.Hotel-Information) > > [Kimpton Hotel Monaco Denver by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Denver-Hotels-Kimpton-Hotel-Monaco-Denver.h139793.Hotel-Information) > > [Castle Hotel Windsor](https://www.expedia.ca/Windsor-Hotels-Castle-Hotel-Windsor-MGallery.h16500.Hotel-Information) > > [Honeymoon Resorts and Hotels in Manitoba](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Manitoba-Honeymoon-Hotels.0-0-d11148-tHoneymoonHotels.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Hotels in Downtown Vancouver](https://www.expedia.ca/Downtown-Vancouver-Vancouver-Hotels.0-n6058432-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Québec City](https://www.expedia.ca/Quebec-City-Hotels.d180017.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Mainstay Suites Winnipeg](https://www.expedia.ca/Winnipeg-Hotels-Mainstay-Suites-Winnipeg.h4090519.Hotel-Information) > > [Bahia Principe Grand El Portillo - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Samana-Hotels-Bahia-Principe-Grand-El-Portillo-All-Inclusive.h803207.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Italy](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Italy.d86.Hotel-Destinations) > > [Quality Inn & Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/High-Level-Hotels-Quality-Inn-Suites.h2318271.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from New Delhi (DEL) to Mississauga (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/del/yyz/delhi-to-toronto) > > [Flights from Salt Lake City (SLC) to Kelowna (YLW)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/slc/ylw/salt-lake-city-to-kelowna) > > [Flights from norman rogers airport](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/airports/ygk/flights-from-norman-rogers-airport) > > [Flights from Richmond (YVR) to Callao (LIM)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/lim/vancouver-to-lima) > > [Flights from Richmond (YVR) to Québec City (YQB)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/yqb/vancouver-to-quebec) > > [Flights from Mississauga (YYZ) to Liberia (LIR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/lir/toronto-to-liberia) > > [Flights from Buffalo (BUF) to Mississauga (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/buf/yyz/buffalo-to-toronto) > > [WestJet Richmond (YVR) to Los Angeles (LAX) flights](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flight-routes/westjet-from-vancouver-intl-to-los-angeles-intl/ws/yvr/lax) ### Cars ### Activities ### Packages > [All inclusive vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/theme-vacations/all-inclusive-vacations) ### General
