**Hidden gem of an escape room in the Rhondda, definitely worth a trip!**

We had the pleasure of playing the Stranger Things room at Rhondda Escape Rooms today.

Having completed around 30 different rooms before, we went in not expecting to be blown away because its a little "out of the way" compared to the usual City based venues we've played at. 

We couldn't have been more wrong!

The attention to detail and effort put into the room(s) design was insane, we were 100% blown away by both the room styling and the waiting area. The puzzles were fantastic, not too difficult but also not too easy, and overall a nice mix of physical and mental activities (with some hidden surprises), and as a team of 4 (three adults one child), we all had something to do throughout the experience. 

The hosts were second to none (I think we spent 20-30 minutes either side of the booking just chatting to them), very welcoming, reassuring to our son that it wouldn't be too scary which we really appreciated. (Optional jump scares / added ambiance was on offer to creep it up a bit and add a little more excitement for teams without kids).

One last note is a great thing about the location compared to most we've been to - it has free parking practically on the doorstep ;) 

Overall I'd highly recommend it and we're looking forward to going back soon to play The Asylum and the WIP room when its done!
