Plas Gwyn accommodation

Hi, I am looking at studying Fine art in 2016 and wondering what the Plas Gwyn halls are like? Is it fun living there? What nightlife is popular around the area and are there any cons?
It's decent. Room is fine, pretty basic stuff. Shower is a little small though
Not much in the area only about 2 convenient stores 10 minutes by foot which can be quite tiring especially after class. In terms of nightlife most of the students head over to the Cardiff city centre which is about 10 minutes away by bus 63 or 25. Other than that its pretty much a sleepy old fashioned british town. Lucky the city centre is pretty near. Oh but there's like 2 pubs there but mostly filled with older people. TLDR ; A little boring , but the city is pretty nearby by bus.
