 "Hip hostel/budget hotel on the riverbank opposite the Millennium Stadium. Accommodation is in singles, doubles (some en-suite) and four- to ten-bed dorms." 
 "Directly across the river from the Millennium Stadium, NosDa is starting to look a little scuffed – which is a shame, as it was impressively schmick when it first opened." Full review
