I had a wonderful stay at the hotel, located in a lovely residential area of Cardiff but just a 10-minute walk from the city center. The rooms were spacious with a king-size bed and ensuite showers, and the breakfast was delightful. However, the new chef didn't quite meet expectations in terms of food quality, and the vegetarian options could be improved. The location was really convenient for exploring the city, and the lively pub across the street added a nice touch to the atmosphere.

The hotel's location is excellent, making it really easy to walk to the center and close enough to the castle and city center. The rooms are cozy with nice touches, a comfortable bed, and a modern bathroom. However, the dining experience with the new chef was not up to par, even though breakfast included the Glamorgan sausage. The facilities are well-maintained, offering a pleasant stay overall.
