Hi Ruth, thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review! We're glad to hear you had a great stay with us! Come back and visit us again soon :-)
Great value for money”
The en-suite room was similar to a 3* hotel one but much cheaper. Everything was clean. It is located in an industrial development which is not the nicest but it is good for parking and still a short walk to the main attractions.

Hi Hannah, thank you for the awesome review! We hope to welcome you back on your next visit to Cardiff!
Best Hostel I have ever stayed at!”
Rooms and bathroom look like a hotel room but only with bunk beds but it was very spacious! All the facilities are really nice. I am completely amazed with this hostel. The only bad side would be the location. There are no convenience stores nearby but it was worth it.

Good value”
It not city centre but you you can walk it, or get a taxi. For the price you can not go wrong, but would like a kettle in the room and a safe that you can use ! . The 10am checkout is also a bit too early .....11am PLEASE ON A SUNDAY!!!

Affordable accommodation ”
The youth hostel was clean and presentable. It had everything I needed for the night. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I liked that the dormantry had ensuite facilities. You do need to bring id with you when checking in. It is ideally situated for the town and train station.

Location a bit of a walk from town, but everything else was perfect. This hostel was probably remodeled from a hotel: spacious room with fantastic shower

Great for the price I booked for ! Couldn’t complain!”
It was a fab location and only a £4taxi ride into the centre. The facility is a hostel but I had a family room which was a great size ! There is no tea or coffee facilities in the room but a bar downstairs so you can go down to get refreshments there. Only point I’d say is as the hotel is cheap there was a lot of noise thru the night of people who’d been out drinking returning back quite loud. But all in all I’d stay again!

Nice room, good location ”
We stayed for one night for a concert in Cardiff centre, it was a clean, large room and the location was just a short taxi ride from the centre. 3 of us stayed in one room which was plenty of space, would recommend, and happily stay again.

Good value for money. This hostel was previously a Mercure hotel, and this is visible in the rooms quality. Good bathroom and shower, clean rooms.
