The whole place needs revamping. No hairdryer in the room asked staff for one and was told two had broken and they didn’t have any to replace. The cups were not changed in all the time we stayed, like wise with the tea and coffee sachets not replaced. We stayed for 3 nights. The door into the bathroom had a very loud squeak so when using in the night woke partner up. Bath and hand towels very thin. All need replacing. The staff were friendly and tried to help but will not be staying there again. Needs lots of money spending there.

Where do I start , I don’t think this hotel should be open until the planned refurb . It’s disgusting , diy paint job , blood on pillow , rusty heater , shower had hair over and the plastic casing broken . Last but not least the sink plug hole has something left from previous hotel visitors.

The room I stayed wasn't cleaned daily, it would be nice if the rooms could be knocked to confirm or introduce a 'do not disturb' sign that one can use. Secondly the floor felt cold, I wonder if this was because I was on the ground floor. I had to switch off the fan because I started having a mild cough not sure if it was related to the cold floors.

Evening meal in restaurant was lovely and staff super helpful. Breakfast the following morning poor, no decaf tea, they had ran out of tea pots, served under cooked scrambled eggs, when I ordered poached, no tissue in ladies toilet. Overall the hotel was over priced in my opinion

Well equipped with the usual kettle, hairdryer, extra pillows etc. on a busy dual carriageway so road noise but didn’t bother us. Pub and restaurant in a different building so no noise from there.

One of the most quietest rooms we have stayed in. It was what we asked for! Breakfast was let down by items left off plated food and when pointed out unfortunately staff felt it was acceptable to not be truthful by saying we were ordering off an old menu! Which was not true the menus we were given were exactly the same as their on line menus. Needless made up excuse. Needless to say for our 3 day stay we didn't eat at restaurant again.

We stayed here for one night for the Six Nations in Cardiff and while we expected a premium, the room is overpriced for what it is, especially then having to pay for breakfast on top. The staff were superb on arrival and at front desk throughout our stay but you can tell the place still needs work. In our room there were bits of trim loose in the bathroom and the hairdryer didn’t work in our room so I had to go and borrow one from front desk. Unfortunately breakfast was also poor quality and a forty minute wait between tea arriving and a bacon sandwich wasn’t great. In fairness the manager deducted the cost of the sandwich from the bill. All round, the performance of the staff wasn’t enough to make us want to return.
