The location was excellent. I walked to many attractions. The check-in was hassle-free! I also appreciated the extra information provided through their online links. The room was very clean. I found the bed very comfortable.
The check-out time at 10:30 am felt slightly early, though it did not bother me much.

The location was amazing. It was a four-minute walk to the Principality Stadium and about six minutes to the town center, which has plenty of pubs, restaurants, and shops. The rail station is near. The bus station is also within walking distance!

The superior room I booked was well-appointed and fine for two people, the bathroom was lovely, and the overall finish was great! The room had a modern feel. It was straightened daily, and I got new towels regularly.

mixed experience near the stadium
convenient locationstreet noiseuncomfortable bed
the location was indeed convenient, a short walk to the stadium.
The room was not what i expected. it lacked proper soundproofing. Street noise was a constant issue. the bed was also quite uncomfortable. I woke up with a sore back each morning.

I was a bit disappointed by the noise. The walls seemed thin, so I could hear conversations from neighboring rooms. the promised parking was not available. I had to search for street parking quite far away. It definitely added stress to my arrival.

The location suited me well. The hotel is on a quiet street near the river. The instructions for parking were clear and helpful, and that assisted my arrival.
The key safe was a bit fiddly to use.
