Rooms were very clean. There was complimentary coffee, tea, biscuits and a bottle of water each. Staff friendly and accommodating. You can walk into centre but we had a taxi it was quicker! Free parking. Good fresh selection of breakfast items. Cardiff bay is beautiful so perfect if you only want to stay in the bay but also easy access into Cardiff central if needed. I would definitely recommend

The room itself was really nice and big and worth the price I think. The bath was lovely. The tv wasn’t great but it is what you expect in a cheaper hotel. The bed was very hard and gave us both a sore back and the room was very hot even with the air off. Staff were lovely and friendly The hotel is not very accessible on foot it was hard to find and is pretty much in the middle of a giant car park. Our room was cleaned once but they didn’t take the room service tray that was in there and they took the soap we had opened and gave us another unopened one which seems wasteful as we were only there 2 nights and there were silver fish in the bathroom and the hall stunk of weed. The toilet roll was very cheap. Overall I think it was a nice clean hotel and worth the price

This was a one night stay. We checked in late and left early. Everything went smoothly. The room was clean and spacious. Everything was to a good standard. We didn’t really have chance to experience further, but have no complaints at all.

It was a lovely hotel room, only issue was that the curtains didnt shut completely so there was a random gap of sunshine. Other than that it was lovely
