Great value for money I have to say. The room and kitchen area were clean and tidy and as it happens we had it to ourselves, but there's plenty of space if any of the other five rooms are occupied. We took a small TV from home and found reception no problem with our small aerial. No parking but if you drive up to the next roundabout and keep left on E Dock Road, there's plenty of on street parking in marked bays and you're ok between 6pm and 8am with 2 hours permitted either side so realistically it's 4pm till 10am. Friendly staff, and larger room than we expected. We'd definitely do this again.

I have been staying at the Newport Student Village on a weekly basis for over 5 years now. I have always found the staff to be helpful, the room clean, bed comfortable & warm in the winter. The kitchen is excellent, has all you need & means that i am not either eating pub food or takeaways. Above all i have always felt safe staying here. I have & would highly recommend.

Stayed here to visit Comic Con Wales 2022. Check in went smoothly, keys picked up from reception. Vending machines at reception and told about nearby Lidl and Asda. On arrival to the room I found the room very hotel. Room was pleasant for the price with a large double bed, desk and wardrobe. En suite bathroom pod which contained toilet, shower, mirror, bathroom shelf and sink. Mentioned at reception I needed a fan that night. Receptionist seemed to be in the process of being trained up by other receptionist. He was quite distant. Had to email reception a few hours later as no fan had been provided and another receptionist brought the fan up. Shared kitchen/TV room very clean with lots of facilities. Building very safe as key fob used around 4 times in the building to get to room. The walls are paper thin and I could hear the room next door's conversation from 7am on the Saturday which was very irritating as I didn't have to be up for my event until later. The room next door were stomping around and slamming doors. Even for the price, I would expect a shower I could get washed properly in. It was difficult as the shower pressure was very low and only a small trickle of water came out. Toiletries provided. Sheets were not changed during my 3 night stay nor were the bins emptied. There was no toilet brush which is basic hygiene. Top shelf of desk had not been cleaned and was very dusty. Apart from that, room very clean. Location excellent for local supermarkets, bingo Hall across the road and only a 5-10 taxi ride from the city centre and train station. A hairdryer was provided. All in all, excellent value for money and low price but a shower that enables proper washing is a basic human right and the very low water pressure needs to be addressed. The rooms and building need air conditioning due to the extreme heat in the summer.

Overall I like to sum up Newport student village staff besides the one coloured CSA out of hours are racist ; rude and I wouldn’t recommend anyone to work here or even booking accommodation. I use to wonder why coloured student use to complain about racism ; now I understand they all racists in particular CSA variable , assistant manager , area manager . I speak from experience from working at Newport Student Village.

Be warned very unhelpful. Not flexible in rent paying if self- funding and not willing to be flexible. Have to pay large amounts as if getting a grant despite not getting a grant. Would not allow my eldest to pay monthly despite pleading with them. They looked at bank account and made their minds up on present amount in bank despite that having to last the year. Also kitchen surfaces poor, and oven not cleaned. The only good point is that electricity is included in the rent. They accused me of being rude on phone but I was very polite, didn't say anything rude, didn't sware, however was stressed, tearful and breathless as asthmatic.
