    The unit was very comfortable with great facilities including a fully equipped kitchen and a washing machine. It had been updated, was very clean in a great location. The owner was very easy to contact and dealt with a minor issue straight away. He also provided lots of information about what to do/see in the area. Free parking on the street.

    Rear entrance access lift was great for me and location was perfect for the Nothing But Thieves Concert at Cardiff Castle I went to with one of my Sons. The hotel name sounds posh! I got a good deal on the price as a budget room with two single beds which was upgraded to a double round room with a good view of the city!
