Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I had a very disappointing experience during my stay. It started with a frustrating 30-minute delay at check-in because the hotel couldn’t locate my reservation. Once I was finally given a room key, it didn’t work. I had to repeatedly ask staff for assistance, but instead of addressing the actual problem with the door, they just kept changing the key. This led to an additional 30-minute wait before I could even enter my room. I had booked a King Suite, but unfortunately, the air conditioning wasn’t working, which made the room quite uncomfortable. To top it off, at check-out, I was informed that I had been overcharged due to an error made by the receptionist. Lastly, the lift was also out of order during my stay, adding to the overall inconvenience. Overall, it was not a pleasant experience, and I wouldn’t recommend staying here.

Amazing
Amazing 2 nights in Cardiff. I was looking for a place away from the hustle and bustle of the city and found this hotel not far from Cardiff bay. Photo included is the maple pecan pie desert, and I can say I had about 3 portions - it’s that delicious :)

Friendly knowledgeable staff and great location. Fire alarm went off during night but staff managed this well and apology letter under the door. Price for breakfast was very expensive for the food choices on offer.

Average hotel, great staff
This might quite possible have been the warmest hotel I’ve stayed at, I’m not sure why the heating was turned up to tropical, but doesn’t seem very energy efficient. The room had individual soap and shampoo pouches, which claimed to be green, and the shampoo and soap might be but there was nothing indicating that the packaging was. Seems a bit out dated. The interior also felt a bit dated, and the carpet could have been cleaned better and there was hair on the walls in the bathroom. The bed had a quite a hard spring mattress, which some will love and some will have. The staff were amazingly friendly and helpful, whilst the hotel might be 3 stars the staff are 5.
