Location is excellent, walkable to city center and arcade. Room floor very dirty. Looks like not clean for ages. No table and chair in the room, very less space in the room to move about. Front desk open 24hrs. Very helpful. Need to pay extra for parking.

Liked: Staff & service
Staff couldn't find my booking for a few minutes, which was worrying!! Room was very basic, only 2 towels, no hand towel/ hair towel. Sink in room was blocked and loo roll holder was broken. There's only 2 plugs and they're under the TV so you can't see in a mirror when drying your hair. Bed was clean and comfortable and room was ok for the one night we needed. Parking needs to be booked in advance as it's privately owned and there's no street parking anywhere close by. Easy to walk into Cardiff city centre, just cross the road and go over the bridge.
