Cardiff Riverside Hotel by Belvilla
"I think it's a good place to stay whilst in Cardiff, rooms and toilets are fine, showers are a bit outdated but still ok.. Location wise is close to centre. And there isn't really staff around, but not needed cause everything is online and easy to check in and out. I'd stay there again."
