Even before moving in, I have been in correspondence with the staff at bridge street exchange and I have to note that they were really really pleasant and professional. My questions were always answered in due time, and the management staff has always went out of their way to resolve my queries and issues. In particular, I would like to thank the manager Phoebe, who is very responsible and efficient in her job. She make sure everything gets done and every problem is settled. My thanks also goes out to Josh and Megan who have been really friendly and helpful whenever we correspond. While this is the start of my stay here, I foresee it being an excellent and memorable one thanks to them. 5 stars!

If you like high floors and large floor-to-ceiling windows, Bridge Street Exchange will be your first choice. The disadvantage is that there is no TV in the room.

The staff downstairs are very welcoming, when I lost my passport when I first arrived, they helped me investigate CCTV and did their best to help me. They were also very helpful when picking up my delivery and sometimes when I forgot my keys, they would drop what they were doing and open the door for me after checking! Would recommend this flat, with its big comfortable floor to ceiling windows! I really recommend it!

Bridge Street Exchange has been a more than comfortable home, with friendly staff and good security. There are always fun events, giveaways and freebies that cheer up your week. Small complaint is that the doors/fans/lifts etc are loud throughout the whole floor so hearing noise like that at night takes some getting used to. Other than that no complaints!

I think the reception is kind and security is cute. BSE locates the city center and it is convenient to purchase goods and necessary food. Inside BSE, we have a lot of fun by the switch room and KTV room. That's so nice.

To be completely honest, there are better accommodations for the same price or even cheaper. There is only one study room which everyone is always fighting over or keeping their stuff their as a way of 'unofficially reserving it' however the same people are always in there and its unfair. The study area is also above reception so there is always loud music and you can't hear anything. If there is an issue with flatmates - in particularly cleaning and things like that they are very unhelpful. The staff sometimes act like you are bothering them if you come to ask for a parcel or if you are locked out of your room and tell you to come back when they are less busy. The 'cinema room' is the only social space and is just a room with a small tv and people walking in and out because it is also the smoking area. To be fair its quite easy to sneak people in because of the back door which is how the virus was spreading in this building like wild fire. Windows in the room are big but bugs come in.

One of the best places you could live as a student in Cardiff at an affordable price. Right in the heart of city centre and only 15 minutes walk to Cardiff Uni buildings and SU. The rooms are so spacious with really modern ensuites as well as a great kitchen to cook food. The internet is brilliant and NEVER faults or buffers. And above all, the reception and security staff are all lovely, always there to help and of course collect parcels!
