Room stunk of paint, we all woke up with headaches. We had booked and paid for two nights but only ended up staying for one. We were given the wrong advice about parking when asked and as a result received a parking ticket. Beds uncomfortable and noisy. Heating difficult to control. Showers cold. Shower head was not even fixed so... More

very helpful staff booked a taxi for us twice and were patient when our room had not been paid for as thought waited for us to sort it! clean and tidy place, we had never stayed in a hostel before. Our room looked a bit like prisoner cell block h with metal beds but they were suprisingly comfy. we were... More

This hostel was really great. It was one of the cleanest hostels ever. Everything is really well laid out, the bathrooms were spacious and everywhere was colourful and cool/inviting colors. It was very funky! The staff are so easy to chat with and meet, they make you feel really welcome and they are very friendly. The bar is cool and... More

And there is also a lot of mould. Carpet in my room was also very dirty. I had double room for single use and i... More

Where to begin? When I arrived I was greeted by a building that reminded me of the house in the Amittyville horror. The comparison with horror films doesn't end there as the room reminded me of Buffalo Bills house in Silence of the Lambs...and I'm talking about the room with the girl and the dog in the basket were staying...

I agree with the previous reviewer. I think Nomad Cardiff had gotten a bad rap in some of the earlier reviews -- either the hostel has changed drastically or people don't know that a hostel is not supposed to be a luxury hotel. I stayed at Nomad with my rugby team and we found it to be perfect for what... More
