Room was spotless, staff were courteous and friendly. Great location to go to Cardiff Bay.
The room was clean and well serviced.
Our only complaint was with the shower over the bath. As older people, showers over baths are not the best but they would be helped if the were a vertical grab bar to steady oneself. The provision of a grab bar for the bath is all vwry well but support when using the shower seems to have been forgotten.
Breakfast was good and the staff there helpful.
This was our second stay at this hotel. It's clean, comfortable and the staff are friendly. The free parking is a plus and it's not far from the bars and restaurants in Cardiff Bay.
