Noisy room
Single room 11 was very noisy. The water pipes for the main tank run through the room, and as the hotel was busy, the water was constantly running. This had not stopped at 23.40; and started again at 6am. Not much sleep! I complained, but no action taken.
The property is what you expect, a 2 star hotel, I stayed in single bed with en-suite, Overall the room was clean and I had a comfortable stay.

Single room booked and it was a single bed too. The ceiling fan hit the wall/ceiling on every rotation which was very annoying

Ok for one night
It was for one night so it was fine. Thought the bedroom looked very tired & stains on ceiling & bedside lamps. The bed was too dofy & very rickety.

Good location for train station and local walks; you can walk into Cardiff via the Cardiff Barrage walkway.
Basic hotel with clean bed linen, (small) bath towels and plenty of hot water for a bath!
The bed was really comfy. The room, including the carpet, was very clean. The decor is a bit tired in places (faded curtains and tatty bathroom). The TV is tiny. There was no floor towel in the bathroom so ask for one when you check in.
Room was tiny and the single bed was more like a child's bed. Room and hotel was dirty. Had originally booked for 2 nights but left after the first and found somewhere else to stay.
What a lovely little hotel. We arrived quite late on a Saturday and we're welcomed by the friendly owner. Our room was clean and comfortable with a cute, old fashioned door key. We had a drink in the bar but didn't eat in the restaurant, although it did look lovely.
Very convenient to station and town centre. Not being informed that single room allocated was on 4th floor with no lift and bathroom facilities were two large steps up. Fortunately, at nearly 95, I am mobile and hope to manage this but it is a considerable hazard. Disappointed with £10 breakfast, nothing special.
