I think it's a good place to stay whilst in Cardiff, rooms and toilets are fine, showers are a bit outdated but still ok.. Location wise is close to centre. And there isn't really staff around, but not needed cause everything is online and easy to check in and out. I'd stay there again.

I was looking for a place to stay overnight for a group of 3: at ~£27 each, this hotel was completely acceptable. LOCATION Less than 10 minutes to walk to Central station (and therefore the city centre), so that was all good. ROOM Basic yet spacious. The beds were comfortable enough. FACILITIES The ensuite was up to standard- same can be said for the shower. We had a telly and basic tea/coffee making facilities. FINAL COMMENTS Note to management: don’t spam people for reviews.

Good location (within 10-min walk from the Cardiff train station; within 15-20 min walk to the Cardiff Castle). Whereas this is a budget hotel, it has a friendly, competent, resourceful, and responsive staff, which makes all the difference. There is no lift in this 3-story, modest construction. The equipment in the room and the private bathroom, both of which are clean, is basic but sufficient to me. The room includes an electronic kettle, which enables me to make my own coffee/tea. If you are not looking for a luxurious hotel room and plan to spend most of your daytime seeing Cardiff, I find this hotel a good option. With the money that I saved from this booking, I stayed for an extra day and could travel at ease, which is in and of itself a luxury.

This hotel is close to rail station. There are restaurants nearby. There seemed to be an issue with rubish collection as there were lots of bags of trash in front on many of the properties. However, the hotel, itself, and it's property were clean. I really enjoyed the friendly staff. My room was a nice comfortable size. And, the property was quiet; I was able to get good sleep after touring the city.

staff were lovely and friendly. The property was hard to find as the name on expedia and name on google maps are different. The room smelt of cigarettes. The mattresses weren’t comfy and everytime you moved the springs made a noise. We booked a room with a double bed and were given a room with three single beds. The entire property needs some major updates, the bathroom sink and bath were brown and the floor looked a bit grubby.

Staff were nice and the room was spacious, sparse and warm. They should put all the stag and hen parties in certain wings though away from normal city visitors.We were kept awake till 3 in the morning! You can park in the roads around the hotel and we chanced not paying as no other cars had parking permits. So basically this hotel was great value for money not the cleanest and room allocation needs work!.

Good value for money. Only issues for us were that i think the washers in the sink taps need replacing. We liked having an actual key for the room - far better than a card. Clean and Tidy. Opening windows which was a god send compared to our previous nights stay at the Angel !. To have a working tv was nice. And the room was a lovely temperature. Was absolutely ideally located for the Tramshed and we had a great evening. We will be back.

Check in staff were welcoming, the bed linen was clean and fresh , as for the quality of the room below avaravge ,I dont think you could have supplied a cheaper more uncomfortable mattress if you tried. Based on all the the above and more i won't be returning.

Awful location. Room was absolutely a disgrace where we had to get a full refund which took us being passed from person person as contact number for complaints was not the right number. The heat in the room caused us no sleep all night and headaches in the morning. The shower was stuck on boiling hot so unable to shower. I don’t not suggest booking this accommodation.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Pros: Very clean and comfortable beds. Staff were very friendly and helpful on arrival and a lovely gentleman carried my small suitcase up to my room for me. A 10 minute walk from Cardiff Town Centre. Cons: Mouldy and dirty shower which I did not use. It was very dated and needs a complete upgrade. Severely cracked plug socket next to one of the beds. Major safety hazard! Other double plug socket next to the other bed is faulty, only one side of the socket works. Room was very high up in the building and there is no lift. Stains on carpet. No bedside lamp, so it was either very bright or very dark. Next to a noisy road in a bit of a unclean area of town. Hot tap in bathroom was tempermental, didn't always work. Maybe the washers need to be replaced. Despite all of the above issues, me and my daughter did sleep comfortably but I wouldn't use this hotel again unless it was refurbished

Good stay overall, but the hotel could do with some improvements. Windows were very hard to shut so it meant the first night of our stay was freezing in our room. The walls were also very thin so we could hear every little interaction outside. The shower was more like a light drizzle of water and the lift also wasn't working (this normally wouldn't be an issue but I have trouble walking up stairs due to health issues so it didn't help). We were told that the hotel had just opened so hopefully these are just some teething problems that can be fixed later down the line. Despite this, the staff were super lovely and I would consider staying here again in the future.
