Large room, typical holiday inn style. No safe or fridge but lots of electrical outlets. Also had a couch that could be made into a bed. Comfortable and clean. Only problem the elevator was broken. Free wifi. Included breakfast.

Holiday inn Swansea

On arrival I waited 30 minutes to be checked in because there was only 1 staff member ( who was serving the bar) , the other was on break. The room had a stench, there was hair in the shower and puddle of water by toilet due to a leaking shower. The towels had hair on them, the room was not clean. The toilet smelt like a public toilet. String smell of urine. Breakfast was good, with a decent selection to o choose from. Staff were friendly

Another great Stay

All good for us. We would like to see the chance of cheeses at breakfast, and maybe a change of cereals too. The staff can't do enough for you and they are a credit to the company.

This was our 5th stay here while we’ve been getting our house ready. The other 4 rooms have been ok, this one (140) was terrible. It stank of bleach, the sink was half blocked, carpet was dirty, the light didn’t work and the duvet cover was dirty and ripped. Very disappointing.
