All good, Nice place to stay. Comfy bed. Had to move the desk from the end of the bed because I am tall and did not want to knock the TV off in the night. The wetroom is a bit damp as there is no window or fan. overall great.

For an overnight stay it was a good experience. The staff involed in every aspect of our stay was welcoming, friendly and professional. We enjoyed the food, which was well presented, tasty, was a decent portion and served in a timely manner. The cocktails was fantastic.

It was a very pleasant stay in Llandaff for a couple of days. The room was comfortable, good value for money and food was available at an extra cost. Staff were friendly and nothing was too much trouble. I had no issues with my stay and I would be happy to stay there again.

Fantastic staff
The staff went out of their way to make our stay perfect. We needed a place to store our luggage while we toured the city waiting for our train. They allowed us to leave the bags in the room and if they needed the room Ben offered to store them in his personal room. When we needed a cab, they made the calls for us. It was a really nice stay and I'd recommend it for anyone.

Stayed here while dropping my son at Uni. Was really convenient (25 min walk) to his digs in Tally South. Free parking was the initial reason I booked and was great, easy to access and felt secure. Check out time being 11am also meant I could run Cardiff Parkrun and grab a shower before leaving. The accommodation is above a pub but you wouldn’t know as it was quiet and easy to access via a side door so no need to go through the pub. Food at the pub was great and reasonably price. Staff really welcoming. Five stars, would stay again.

Great pub stay.
Wonderful pub in Wales with wonderful accommodation, great staff, and great food in the restaurant. Would stay here again in a heartbeat, with additional dining options nearby. This is what a pub-stay should be.
