Short stay Cardiff arms

It was just what we needed for a overnight stay clean and tidy and warm. The bar was good and staff very friendly. The only thing we felt that would make it better was if they did breakfast but they do give you a Greggs voucher for 5 pounds per couple so overall it was good value for the money we would stay there again.
