Good location. Clean. A bit noisy but that’s mostly the other guests being inconsiderate.

Yuk!!!
Didn't even stay, too dirty, too disgusting. I stay in lots of hostels and this is the worst I've ever had to be in, the room was just so dirty that I couldn't stay

Very good value for a single room with breakfast.
Stayed for one night whilst husband was having an operation at the Heath University hospital, Cardiff. The young men at reception during the day and night were very helpful and friendly. All areas were clean and well maintained. Residents were polite and helpful, explaining the controls on the microwave for example. Briliant value to have breakfast included. There was a choice of 4 cereals, brown or white toast, orange juice and tea or coffee and filter coffee. Nice to have Nutella and peanut butter as well as preserves. Very good value midweek for a single room and free WiFi as well so everything I needed. There is a parking charge between 8am and 6pm but I was out most of the day. No problem getting a space outside. I would be happy to stay again.

Ok. Inga skåp. Trångt.
Bra gemensamma lokaler. Fin innegård. Tyvärr var det flera duschar stänga och några saker var sönder.

Rapport Qualité-Prix correct mais peut mieux faire
Hôtel assez éloigné de tout... Il faut marcher un peu avant de trouver des restaurants, des magasins et marcher beaucoup pour les arrêts de bus concernant les voyageurs... Pas d'intimité dans les dortoirs entre les clients et en dehors vu qu'il n'y a pas de rideaux... Il fait très chaud dans les chambres, pas de prise de courant personnel... Personnel accueillant et souriant!

Qualidade preço razoável. Boa localização.
Foi a minha primeira experiência num hostel e nem correu nada mal. No geral, o hostel era agradável e estava muito bem localizado, desloquei-me a pé para quase tudo. As casas de banho partilhadas eram razoáveis, mas nem sempre estavam limpas. O pequeno almoço era básico mas suficiente, no entanto, nem sempre reponham o que faltava e no final tinhamos de lavar a nossa própria louça.

Horrible mattress.
This hostel is not that bad in average, was cheap and the staff was fine. But when it comes to the mattress... this is the worst bed I have ever tried in my 38 years. I could feel each single spring on my back... it wasn´t suitable even for an animal. And that´s all, a total deal breaker, no need to add any additional comment. Avoid until they refurbish the place.
