W/E with 5 Old Fella's

Staff were really really nice and very helpful especially Leighton on arrival Late Bar staff also bril. Only semi complaint, breakfast very expensive at £11.50 for a fry that you could get down the street for as little as £4. So we went down the road. Mind you would not rush back to Cardiff, a bit dead, and food options not good, in fact awful.

I though that the check in time

I though that the check in time was relativly late (3pm) compared with other hotels that I have stayed in. However, when we did return earlier at 2pm we were checked in.

Fantastic, we were able to check

Fantastic, we were able to check in early and also leave our cases before our train left The staff were wonderfully polite and helpful 2 minor observations only, the toilet roles were a bit 'cheap' (we like really soft ones..) we were given a map with instructions to the inernatioal arena, but we didnt realise at first that there were 2 entrances, and the map reflected the journey from the opposite enrance to which we entered
