10/10 Exceptional

Well run budget guest house near city

Great guest house if you're on a budget. Certainly no frills, all self service but clean and well run place. V near city centre also
Stephen, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good location & value but no staff on premises
Alice, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Simple and basic, but sufficient and convenient!

Despite initial problems gaining an access code, I had a pleasant stay in a simple, no nonsense room with all that was needed. Central location is excellent.
Mark, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Could be better

The staff and especially Kenan were always helpful and very friendly on the phone. The rooms are clean but the partitions between rooms as so thin that in the rooms with shared bathrooms, in one of the accommodations, everything that happens in the next room can be heard.
Katherina, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Exactly what you’d expect and what you pay for, a nice little room, clean and very secure. Very close to the city centre
Thomas, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great apartment when made up for two rooms

Stayed here for Oasis opening night so it was much more expensive than usual - wasn't everything! Super close to the stadium. Very clean. Didn't get the pre-arrival email but called the emergency line at the front door and was given the codes - really nice chap on customer service who was really helpful. Was expecting a two room apartment so he immediately sent someone over to make up the double sofa bed in the lounge. Has everything you need. Would use again if going to Principality Stadium.

Mr john, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Excellent location, comfortable beds, plenty of pillows. I would have loved some seating area, but we were using the accommodations for sleep mostly, so we socialized outside of the rooms.

Simple room but did the job. Convenient location and easy to check in and out

Great value for money

We were so happy with our accommodation. It was perfectly located within walking distance to the coach station and castle, as well as the main shopping precinct. Our family room was gigantic and massive value for money.
Rebecca, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Decent stay

Not bad for its price
Jaime, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Comfortable but needlessly cold!

Comfortable room, as usual, except that the radiator didn’t work and there was no other form of heating on a very cold night!
Sion, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Short stay

Excellent place. The family room was spacious and clean. Within walking distance to shops, castle and principlalut stadium Would stay there again.

Mazhar, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Lights did not work outside the room. Heater did not work in the room. Everything was fixed after my call
Irina, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Central, cost effective!

It's very reasonably priced and in a perfect central location. Central enough to walk around but not on the main street, so a quiet night sleep is guaranteed! Only downside is the slightly off smell of the carpets/exterior (a couple of plug in air freshners would make a huge difference!) will happily stay again!
Amy, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Be careful staying at this property I booked this place through experia and paid £153.00 in March 2024 I was staying on the 15th of March 2025. For tonight. Then I notice on my bank account that £114.00 from my bank account without and warning. I have asked experia to sort this out without no result so Austin’s guesthouse has taken more money without warning me before. So be careful very careful I will not be booking this place again very unhapp.
