We were walking the wales coast path and had not factored in the demand around Cardiff for accommodation when concerts are on. The student accommodation was the only reasonable priced option we could get for the weekend ( still more expensive than a premier inn) The main issue was heat, the room was very warm, a fan was provided but the window is only open a few issues (H&S) therefore circulating warm air. Good security, shower was fine, bed linen and towels fine. Small kitchen and seating are nearby which was handy and laundry on site.

Friendly and helpful staff at the front desk. When there was an issue with the room, was dealt with quickly and efficiently.
Use of shared kitchen, which was also very clean, was useful. There was only one cloth for wiping counters and cleaning dishes so you might want to bring your own, and a scrubby for dishes. Minor point. I look forward to returning again.

It's a student halls of residence. If that's what you're expecting I would imagine you'd be very happy with the room. If you're expecting a hotel, it's not a hotel. It was exactly as I was expecting. Comfortable, no frills, perfectly fine for a one night stay for me. Wifi was great. A little bit of noise at times, it's student accommodation, but not too noisy by a long way. I recently stayed at the IBIS in Bristol and that was far noisier. Would happily book again for a short stay.

I had a wonderful stay at Newport Student Village! It was only a short 10 minute walk to central Newport and if you walk 5 more minutes you will be at the bus station which will take you everywhere you need to go. The room lacked decoration but that was something I expected as the facility is used to house students. I did have a bathroom, so that was a pleasant surprise! The staff was incredibly helpful and polite. I would 100% stay here again!

You pay for what you get but you may end up next to a shared kitchen and social space, as I did. The room was fine but hot.

This means you won't get to sleep before 11 at the earliest - if you're travelling for business, you better be ready to be half-rested in the morning.

Although there was secure parking within the premises it didn't appear to be available to me. Free on street parking was available over the weekend within walking distance but not sure about week days.

Better attitude and improvements needed

Unfortunately on arrival the person in charge of the desk was busy socialising with fellow students and got oneself locked out of the office.
It took quite a while and a polite nudge to be able getting into the room after travelling all the way from Edinburgh down to Newport in Wales.
Having stated at similar campuses,this should offer more value for money.
Also,next door was a very inconsiderate mature student with loud noises if various media until midnight and beyind,then at 6.40am playing loud music.Rested?

Good option

Check-in was easy. The personnel were always nice and helpful. However, when I checked in, the room I was assigned was dirty, and had never been made by housekeeping. That was messy, but easily solved. It seemed like a smaller room that the one I was re-assigned.

There's a lobby area and laundry access but you have to download an app and create an account in order to use the washer and dryer.

It's an okay area at night but super safe during the day.

Love that there is a water refill and hot water station with coffee and tea products in the lobby.

I was able to leave my luggage for a few hours after checking out. And it feels super safe inside the building because I needed to scan my fob in any area I accessed (usually about 5 fob areas on the way to your room). The shared kitchen area is big and there's mugs and some utensils your can use, but mine didn't have a knife so there went my plans to cut up some fruits. There's a microwave and a big refrigerator you can use.

The main issues I had were the following: no safe in the room. The shower was a horrible experience since the curtain was too short and there was no barrier separating it from the bathroom floor so the water flooded all over the place while the shower curtain kept sticking to me as I showered AND I could hear any snore or movement from my neighbor at night. And I'm sure he could hear me breathing too.

It’s a student dorm, so I had no expectations of grandeur. That said, I have stayed in my fair share if them. The treatment you get from their staff, who I expect are students, is dismissive. The floors are nasty and the shower and toilet are a compartment setup. The shower drain was so plugged that the who compartment flooded. The area is dodgy, and in transition. It is an area where the British government is depositing enormous numbers of recent migrants, mainly African and South Asian, mostly men. If you are going to experience Welsh culture then Newport is not the place to go. Actually South Wales is not very Welsh. Demographically it looks like any other large North American city.

Located next to a major road bridge if, as we were, allocated a third floor room, the same level as the road it is very difficult to get a good nights sleep. In addition the walls are paper thin.

Basic (as you would expect of student accommodation), but clean and comfortable and very friendly helpful reception staff. Very thin walls, so don’t do noisy things, or expect others not to. The only issue for me was car parking - the local car park is a building site and staff can’t guarantee it won’t get locked overnight. The alternative is Asda, who can’t guarantee you won’t get fined.. 5-10 minute walk to town, better if you walk up the walk walkway along the River Usk than the dual carriageway Usk Way. Would stay again.

Great Value Comfort and Convenience

For Budget accommodation Newport Student Village is the best. I had a relatively spacious single room - ample desk view of town and river Usk. Shower basin and toilet neat clean and spacious enough for any adult whatever size. Access to spacious shared kitchen / living room with fridges, microwave stove - table and chairs and lounge seating and a detailed book on Newport available. So you could bring in your own food and eat in comfort and not in your room. There was TV the in kitchen / living room. Suggest bring an extra blanket or rug. I had this - I do not know if extra blanket would be available if one requested this. Very prompt service when requested light over the desk area be fixed.

Disappointing parking availability

The room and facilities were clean and tidy. The one disappointing aspect was the parking. Had to find change to pay for parking and could only pay up till 1:30am . Received a £60 parking fine and when addressed at hotel reception they just shrugged and said there’s nothing they can do. If you provide accommodation surely negotiating adequate parking for your guests is part of the service? So the inexpensive accommodation was not to be. Will not be returning Ibis far better service and free parking!

Pros: The large double room was clean, and good value. The beds are comfortable. The kitchen was clean and was equipped for basic cooking.
Cons: The en-suite bathroom was a wet room which drained slowly leaving the bathroom floor wet for some time. The room faced a very busy dual carriageway and the traffic noise was intrusive. The private car park immediately next to the hall of residence is cheap at £4.50 per day but you need to get up for 06:30 each morning to buy a ticket for the day to avoid a £60.00 penalty.

Amazing Value and great staff.

I stay here a lot and it offers absolutely amazing value. The staff are extremely helpful, the rooms are clean and access to a decent kitchen is a real bonus if you’re working away for extended periods and would prefer to get away from eating out and takeaways. The WIFI is very good as well and if you need shopping there’s a LIDL and an ASDA very close by.
A lot has been said about parking but prior to staying here I found it really difficult to get any definitive information about how and where to park for access to the accommodation. So, here’s what I’ve learned about parking at this place :-
1)Parking in Newport itself– This is a cheap option (around £1-£2 for overnight) but this is about a 10 minute walk from the rooms. Fine if you’re fit and don’t have too much luggage. A few of my colleagues use this option.
2)Parking in the car park next to the accommodation. Other reviewers are correct in that this isn’t owned by the campus and so they can’t issue parking permits. So, on the face of it, it’s a “pay and display” car park with no option to pay with a card which isn’t that convenient. HOWEVER, the landowners (whose details you can get from the campus) are very happy to sell you a weekly or monthly parking permit that again works out to be just a couple of pounds/day (and you don’t need to find change every day). I did this and, having emailed the landowner in the morning (and sent them the money electronically), they emailed me the permit the same day.
