A wonderful stay. The locals were very generous and kind with helping us with all our challenges during our stay.
Great character and lots of history in the black boy Bread and breakfast. The staff make a lot of effort to make this establishment a success. Safe car park, Nice free house of wonderful ales. The food was served quick and the bar was very beautiful with welsh culture. The beds where comfortable. Clean small rooms. I enjoyed the town and the castle which are all within walking distance.
The hotel is not on the tourist map of the city and consequently very hidden within the city walls of the town. You will need a a to z to find it but easier on foot.
