Fine for overnight
Pros:

Clean basic good sized room. 5 minutes walk to a quite decent Wetherspoons for value food/drink, 10 minutes walk to the railway station.

Cons:

Event in the banquet suite downstairs with very loud music until midnight, quiet after that however. Only 1 thin pillow provided. Limited car parking on a quite steep slope - if no spaces left be careful where you park, we could see traffic wardens in the street outside from early on the Sunday morning ticketing people.

Perfect for what I needed.
Pros:

Very nice and accommodating check-in attendent. Room met all of my needs and had a fan available due to the summer heat. Shower was clean and the water pressure/temp was perfect! I liked everything. I arrived very late (or early, I suppose is more accurate - around 1:00 a.m.) so I appreciated that someone was still able to help me.

Perfect accommodation for a break at Barry island
Pros:

Perfect location for visiting Barry island. Staff were very helpful and we had everything we needed.

Cons:

If i had to say anything it would be the parking was limited so tricky at times to park. But not an issue if your willing to walk when all spaces are taken.

Very tired, in need of extreme TLC - felt for the staff!
Pros:

Ready tired decorate and general appearance. The shelves were falling off the wall next to the bed. Bunk beds needed to be tightened. Shower holder coming off the wall. Couldn’t open the windows in the bathroom or bedroom. Shower curtain doesn’t cover the edge of the bath so water everywhere, probably why skirting boards rotting! General an unclean feeling. Couldn’t open the fridge because it rubbed on the carpet. Staff looked unkempt, polite enough and tried to help. The hotel lets its self down. It’s a shame.

Cons:

See above

Very disappointed
Pros:

Great location if you’re here for the Gavin and Stacey experience. Staff were lovely. Cheap price

Cons:

The hallways were in need of a very deep clean as all the walls and carpets were stained with mysterious liquids, the entire hotel including our room smelled of marijuana. Other guests keeping me and my partner up till 3am with music as loud as physical possible and even though I had mentioned it to staff no one did anything. Wish we had know this when booking but they had rented the function room out for the evening and even though we was are the far side of the hotel we could here the bass till early hours of the morning. I understand it is a budget hotel but not many places to hang clothes, wet towels ect.

Again I understand with the price it’s not a luxury hotel but my word are the mattresses awful, it’s like laying on lumpy sheet metal. The door didn’t lock so had to use a chair to press against the door. Couldn’t park In The car park as it was always full with it seeming like not many people were staying here so had to park on the street a few minutes away.

I completely get it’s a budget hotel at £54 a night which it did serve a purpose but if the prices go up in peak times then maybe something to consider if wanting to book.
