Great spot
We had room only but the room was clean and comfy. Parking was also free which was a real bonus and very convenient. I’d recommend as close to Cardiff bay and not far from city centre. Good restaurants and facilities near by.

Comfortable and efficient.
Fantastic. Really well thought- out amenities, such as a small coin- op laundrette, which made all the difference as we were visiting someone in hospital and didn’t know the length of stay, so were travelling very light and were glad of replacing dirty clothes with clean ones in our luggage. Everything in the place worked very well. Recently built and in good nick. For the nights we stayed, the price was relatively low.
