I was concerned that when we walked our room's very creeky floorboards would disturb other guests, but after we heard guests walking along the corridor we realised the problem is widespread. I apreciate the building is old but think the problem could be relatively easily resolved. That aside we really enjoyed our short Cardiff break and would mention the convenient location of the hotel to friends considering a visit to the city.

Room was really lovely, kept clean could hear constant movement from the room above about 6 am and that would continue until late in the night. We were in room 2 to 6 so I believe possibly it’s below a storage cabinet or something which staff were in and out.

I had originally booked a room that had a king sized bed for my daughter, my 80 year old mother (who has limited mobility), and I because the booking site had said that this type of room would fit 3 people. When we checked in with a male staff member he mentioned that their hotel allows 2 per room, but then followed up stating that it was okay for all 3 of us to stay in the king sized room. However, a female staff member with a variety of tattoos immediately shut down what the male staff member had said to us and took over our check in. She said that all of us were not allowed to stay in that one king sized bedroom. We attempted to explain to her that my 80 year old grandmother has very poor mobility alongside a history of frequent fainting and falling spells, but she did not give any care whatsoever to our concerns. She had left us no choice but to buy another room for my mother. Her lack of care continued when she booked my mother’s room across the hotel building from our room with no direct or easy access in case my mother wanted to come to our room for any needs due to her previously mentioned disabilities. Additionally, it was extremely difficult to even enter our rooms. Couldn’t even enter my mother room unless someone was inside already. The door to my room was visibly filthy and one would have to kick the door in to even enter due to something being stuck there. There was no heater in our room with the only warm area being the bathroom towel rack.

Nice hotel great location
The receptionist Charles was really friendly and helpful and gave us a nice welcome. The hotel was clean and well presented. Breakfast was nice. We had a problem with our door key not working when we got back late at night which wasn’t great. They put some vouchers under the door for free drinks and coffee the next day but when we went down at check out time the bar was closed so a complete waste of time.
