On arrival I went into the reception/ dining/bar area and it had a smell of damp or musty . I was then advised that I had to pay £5 to park my car overnight in the car park even though I was staying at the hotel. The room was ok but only had 2 pillows none spare in the cupboard . I tried to run a bath but the tap was fixed to have shower only and there was no phone in the room to contact reception regarding these issues . I’ve stayed in this hotel lots of times over 10 years but was very disappointed this time

Didn’t have breakfast, went to reception last night no one there, 3police cars at hotel early afternoon, didn’t sleep for 2 nights due to noise of a phone ringing against the wall of our room. Overall shocking, I’d like to request a refund

We were only staying one night on a short visit to Cardiff. The hotel was easily accessed from the motorway. It reminded us of American-style motels with the rooms all having external access, although each room had a small lobby to prevent the Welsh rain entering the bedroom. After a quick friendly checkin we found a clean room with the basics we needed for the night. We were allowed to check in early although were warned that the water in the room would be unavailable until later owing to plumbing work. Our only concern was that the mattresses were not the most comfortable, but perhaps that is a matter of personal preference.

3.0 / 10.0

We booked 2 rooms, the first was ready when we arrived a little early for check & having explained we would be back late that evening I was told they would leave some notes and our 2nd room key would be ready. Unfortunately that wasn't what happended when we returned and a wait of almost 30 minutes ensued until the room key was provided. The rooms were very clean but he mattresses were very poor and only 1 pillow per person was not good. It is also worth noting the hotel is a steep incline accessed via a trading estate. We were given free coffee on checkout as recompense for the check in th night before as the delays were due to a new member of staff, unfortunately the coffee was as unimpressive as the mattresses. Overall this hotel is reasonable value for money but needs an overhaul to bring it up to modern standards and skimping on things like pillows does nothing to help.

The staff were very friendly, the rooms are basic, clean but that was expected with the price. A lack of bar and restaurant was disappointing.

We didn’t have breakfast so scored a half way mark as we were not able to skip it in this review. It’s an old Campanile hotel now run by a small group so I support them all the way. It’s handy as the brown road signs are still there directing from the motorway. Still looks outdated but it’s being upgraded. Lidl a short walk away for groceries. It’s on a steep hill so watch out if it’s wet or icy. Could do with two pillows but a bath towel came in handy. TV wasn’t much good with reception and selection of channels.

4.0 / 10.0

Friendly staff at the check in. The main hotel building and reception looks presentable. The room was great value and exactly what I needed to have a night’s sleep after an event. The bed was comfortable, bedding clean. There were tea making facilities. The room was very basic and dated, with cold lighting - it was not very inviting. However focussing on the value, it was great for the price paid.

2.0 / 10.0

Really run down. Bright lights on outside with thin useless curtains. Stains on the wall. Shouldn’t have to pay for parking at an out of town hotel either. Staff were wonderful though.

8.0 / 10.0

The rooms were well maintained and clean. Entire hotel needs a little TLC in terms of painting and decorating. The staff were very nice and the positioning of the hotel allows for easy access to the city centre by bus, 58 or 57 and tbere is a good pub nearby for food and drinks. Good value for money all round.

Although the room and en-suite looked a bit tired and could do with a refurbishment but it was kept clean and bright. The staff are very polite and friendly. There is a separate charge for parking in their car park.

Staff lovely - rooms ok in themselves but walls so thin you could hear everything and very basic - downstairs was lovely - rooms not. Staff lovely. Also security of the doors was a worry over night. Probably fine but could not relax to sleep. Also local youths not great, son got heckled in the local area outside the hotel.

A clean, decent, cheap option for a drop into Cardiff. Good public transport connection. One downside is parking is on a very steep land and has just turned into a pay to park/anpr job.

Comfy bed and great hot water but not a great deal of pressure. Staff were excellent and provided extra pillows and blankets.

6.0 / 10.0

This was a great value place to stay with staff who could not be more friendly and helpful. It has easy connection for driving but the hotel is tired and is, as we were told, due for refurbishment after a recent take over All in all, fine for a quick stay but its refurbishment can't come soon enough.

4.0 / 10.0

If you go with reasonable expectations, you won’t be disappointed. From the price, it is clearly a budget option in this area and those coming expecting a 5 star experience/ a romantic stay should be realistic and reach further into their pockets. I got a little lost on the way here, but it is conveniently located close to shops (very near a Lidl and Waitrose). The reception staff were very friendly, giving a warm welcome and great service. My room was clean and tidy, had plenty of desk space and plugs and fit all my needs for a brief overnight stay before an interview in Cardiff. As a little tip, I’d suggest bringing a teaspoon with you (I travel with one anyway) , as there were only wooden stirrers provided. It was reminiscent of PGL accommodation (without the sharing), which I found quite nostalgic - no frills, but comfy, quiet and functional.I can’t comment on breakfast, as I didn’t eat here. Overall, good value for money
