Although located central the hotel is a typical Travelodge and in need of a lick of paint. Parking is off site (5.50). The breakfast is quite basic.Although the price is ok i would not stop again as there are better hotels within walking distance (premiere Inn ) across the road and the Dragon hotel with onsite parking.

Sometimes words fail me and they did when I first entered my room at this hotel. First the stench of TCP hit me and then the sight of the barren, gulag style room made my heart sink. The bed, which was a foot high from the floor housed a mattress where every coil and spring dug into your body, where the two slivers of pillow served no purpose and where the plastic 'bed wetting' sheet prevented any semblance of a good nights sleep. The bathroom was devoid of any complimentary toiletries bar a piece of soap that looked as if it would dissolve within first contact with water. There were two white plastic cups (the sort you can buy in a supermarket, 300 for 50p) in place of the standard glass tumblers which every other hotel can manage to provide. The toilet seat was not secured and threatened to slide off at any moment. Previous guest's pubes littered the bathroom and there were bogeys smeared on the walls. Breakfast was the saddest of spreads I've ever seen. Don't eat the cooked one. I managed a few mouthfulls and was left with a stomach upset for the next few days. Stick to cereal. The bread for the toast is so thin I'm sure they actually have it specially commissioned. No parking provided however a discount is given for parking in the NCP car park five minutes away. Not much fun when it's pouring with rain and you're hauling your luggage through Swansea's biggest pub/club district. £50 for one night not including parking which was an extra £9. For £30 more I could have spent a night in the Marriott with breakfast and on site parking however I was travelling with work and had no say in the matter!

We had booked a family room months in advance of my daughters university graduation ceremony. We had booked this hotel as we had also booked a nearby restaurant for our evening celebration dinner and could walk to it. At around 6pm that evening we were travelling from the ceremony to the hotel when they called us to say that the room was no longer available due to problems with the booking system. As I was so close to the hotel we went into the reception where we were told a completely different story that the room had been trashed the night before and was unusable. As we could have checked in at 2pm, why had they not told us earlier. They also refused to allow us to look at the room to see if what they were syaing was true. They put us out in a Travelodge in service area on the M4 in a double room with a put me up bed for our daughter. They then charged us the full price for the family room that we had booked at the city centre hotel. I will never use Travelodge again. I guess you get waht you pay for at the end of the day.

Good location for night life. Whatever you do don't look at google maps for directions as it will take you straight past it. If you want peace and quiet ask for a room on the 4th floor and above. Due to a pub being opposite you do get a little bit of noise from here but this gets droned out slightly being higher up.
