"A good place to stay not far from Cardiff centre"
We stayed here for two nights after our arrival at Bristol Airport and before heading further west along the coast. Premier Inns are pretty standard, usually clean with comfortable beds. This one was no different. The receptionist on our arrival, a Hungarian young man, was very friendly and helpful. We appreciated that we could walk to the city centre easily from here. On the downside, I wish the shower hose wasn't fixed and you have to request to have your room cleaned if you stay more than one night. The free WiFi is not very reliable.
"University Open day visit"
Stayed for one night for Cardiff University open day. You get 24 hour free parking just make sure to register your reg in the machine in reception. We left our car in the carpark and walked to the University, approx 25 min walk. There is a Lidl opposite which we found useful to buy a quick breakfast snack. Beware the pub next door shuts at 10pm. We arrived at 9.45pm just in time for last orders. Perfect for a 1 night stay. Usual premier inn room layout and great location for our visit.
"Convenient, room too hot, shower not accessible, hairdryer kept cutting out"
Convenient location for business, and freep parking, but that's where the good things end. The temperature in the room was very high at 26 degrees, couldn’t be altered, and reception weren't interested other than to say "put the fan on". OK- put the fan on and you have the choice of being unable to sleep because of the noise of the fan, or switch it off and be unable to sleep because of the high temperature. The shower was in the bath, therefore not accessible. The hairdryer kept cutting out, so it took three times longer than normal to dry hair.
"Great service and standards"
Ideal location just outside the city so a nice peaceful area, friendly helpful staff, parking free but you must register your vehicle to ensure you don’t get a fine, usual procedure for somewhere so close to a city centre, signage informing about this very clear and receptionist also ensured we had registered, advertised without air con so aware this was an older hotel, clean to premier inn standards however corridors need a bit of attention and refreshing from Maintenance but overall a great base for cardiff.
"Awful"
We usually go for premier inn as has the family room, good breakfast and you know what you will get. I can honestly say this is THE WORST premier inn we've stayed at. Room smelled of smoke and wet dog. All beds pushed together no space around them. Nothing was clean, all a bit 'sticky'. Stained desk chair really nasty. Stained carpets all up the hall. Just a very grubby hotel. People obviously smoking weed in rooms and predictably the fire alarm had us all out of bed at 10pm so thanks whoever that was. Next morning we hadn't booked breakfast so on a Thursday morning were told sternly they weren't accepting walk ins! No space even later in the morning. So we went to the premier inn cardiff bay instead which was the best move ever. So wish we had booked this premier inn instead. We will not be back here!
