There are only 3 rooms in the building we stayed in, it was nice and quiet. There was a large wardrobe and the toiletries and towels in the bathroom were nicely presented, they had also provided a couple of boxes of tissues. We were pleasantly surprised to discover a small fridge with some drinking water in it and some fresh milk for the tea and coffee (the owner told us later that he supplies fresh milk because he dislikes UHT milk in his own tea and coffee). We stayed for 3 nights and had a superb breakfast each morning. I'm pleased I took their advice and booked an evening meal in advance, the restaurant is very popular. Our meal was so tasty that we booked for the following evening too, that meal was also extremely good. The staff were very welcoming and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. When I was originally booking the room I was concerned about the check-in time because we were going to a gig in Cardiff on the first night and wouldn't get to the hotel until well after the check-in time. However when I mentioned my problem they replied swiftly and arranged a self check-in which went very smoothly. Parking was nice and close to the entrance to the accommodation. We will definitely be booking again next year when we're back in Cardiff.

    Lovely old-fashioned feel, and the staff were absolutely lovely. The dinner we had was very good indeed and very good for the price. Breakfast also excellent. They were also very happy for my family to pop in for tea and Welsh cakes after we'd been to a funeral. If I'm back in Cardiff again one day I'll definitely stay here.

    Spacious enough for a family. Facilties enabled it to be a little home from home, so you have the freedom to cook should you want to. Apartment was fantastic. Loved the separate rooms for families. Very quiet location and parking avaliable.

    Accomodating staff. Free wi-fi that was consistent throughout my stay. Sleep quality was good. Within easy walking distance of the town centre, but far enough away from the noise of the all-night party that Cardiff is on a weekend. Attracts sports teams, families with children, hen night gangs, but all are all respectful of the rights of others to get a good nights sleep. Basic facilities are reflected in its affordable price. Vigilant, night-time security staff gives added reassurance to my daughter (and me for my daughter's safety)

    Staff were professional, welcoming and happy to help. The rooms were clean and very comfortable. We had dinner, which was outstanding. We also had breakfast the next day and the food was excellent. Family friendly and our children really enjoyed the whole experience.

    Pros: Parking outside of property for two cars. However it is shared with the flat below and was a tight squeeze to get in and out. Great layout for small family with one toddler and one infant. Everything you would need during a short stay. Kitchen was well equipped and everywhere was clean and tidy. Nice bedding and a very comfortable double bed. Good overhead shower. Nicely decorated.

    I booked for the gym and pool. Both met expectations. It's August in a pandemic so it's busy. However, I was often alone in the gym. The pool in the morning also really quiet. It was fine and a bit of fun wheb we should be in France. Staff very helpful, clean, bar expensive no surprise there. Altogether for family with 2 teenagers it was something to do after months of doing nothing.
