Comunque un buon rapporto qualità/prezzo
Pros:

La struttura era pulita, lo staff è stato molto disponibile a farci portare le biciclette in stanza e nella stanza c’era anche un bollitore con caffè e tè

Cons:

Abbiamo trovato però un po’ scomoda la posizione della struttura non facilmente raggiungibile in bici e difficile da trovare per la conformazione della città che ha molte sopraelevate e sottopassaggi

Pros:

It definitely lived up to the name of Budget but for the amount of time we were in there, it was ok.

Cons:

There were dust bunnies so the floor could have done with a better clean. There was also food splatters on the wall.

Oh and the door key didn’t open the main door when we returned.

A brief overnight stay in Newport
Pros:

It was quiet
It was affordable
Tea/coffee in room
Cleanliness

Cons:

Had to go ask for a TV remote after spending half an hour searching for it.
Access/directions to the car park, a bit confusing when arriving tired, late at night and it's dark.
Banged my head twice on the overhead bunk bed.

A fantastic budget hotel. Would definitely use again.
Pros:

Our room was very clean and comfortable. Even though we were next to a dual carriageway you couldn't hear it at all and the room had air conditioning which we weren't expecting. A great base for traveling into Cardiff.

Cons:

We travelled in a van and had to park in a separate area which looked decidedly dodgy. Would have felt more secure if it was fenced. But, having said that, we had no issues.

Cheap for a reason. Stay safe and book a taxi
Pros:

Bed was comfy - best sleep I’ve had in weeks

Cons:

We booked a twin room for after a concert in Cardiff - was cheap and we soon found out why! Very weird room layout - very low toilet, the shower is literally in the room, u have to step out the shower into the bedroom, there’s no separate bathroom, the sink is in the bedroom. Bed was comfy though and room clean.
Location - DO NOT WALK FROM HOTEL TO TRAIN STATION OR VICE VERSA AFTER DARK - VERY UNSAFE. UNDERPASSES ARE OCCUPIED BY UNDESIRABLES! Taxi cost £10.
Train to Cardiff 15 mins, quick and easy.
