Newport Student Village - Campus Accommodation

The accommodation is secure and clean and everything local the room was typical student accommodation but more than adequate for our stay mattress was to soft for my liking but overall 👍

Basic accommodation but the price was ideal for my purposes! Very well located for the city centre! Staff were very helpful in setting and responding to my queries!

Good service

Very welcoming staff, extremely clean room and kitchen area

It was fine for what I needed just a sleeping area for a quick stop over. Having a kitchen was great. For me the only issue was the lack of parking. 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.

Beautiful places

Everything was clean and up to standard, a perfect place for the price point. However, another guest staying repeatedly tripped the fire alarm for multiple nights.

It was okay

That's no parking here. Visitors need to park in Asda across the road, and use the Just park app to pay for it. Fully expected everything to be basic, and it was, with everything working ok. Decent shower in the room. The welcome at reception was, well, not the friendliest.

Great stay, everything was clean and tidy. The staff were very helpful and friendly. Easy to get too, great facilities. Would highly recommend

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?

Great value place

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. Staff very nice and tried to help but due to limited rooms were unable to move us to the other side of the building.

Great value for money close to all amenities could do with a bit of updating in rooms bed not very comfortable mattress was to soft. Shower curtain was broken didn’t go all the way round but didn’t affect having a shower other than water going everywhere other than that still a great stay for the money paid would definitely use again if I go that way again

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.

Clean, amenities of kitchen, 24h reception

My stay here worked out really well. Got just what I expected. The accommodation was clean and easy to access. Had access to a kitchen so I could eat in rather than out and had a desk to work from. The only downside was the wifi speed was pretty poor.

Really good stay. Basic hotel but great value for money. It has everything you need for a quick stay over Staff were also very friendly
