Beautiful and spotlessly clean, absolutely perfect for walking into the city . Easy to gain entry on arrival. Everything you needed was provided by the hosts and if there was a problem very easy to get hold of them . Would highly recommend this property.😊

There was nothing to dislike but as the weather was unexpectedly very hot the room was quite uncomfortable in the heat but we were out most of the day and opened the patio door in the evening, this is not a criticism as all in all the property was absolutely perfect 😍

The place was really clean and modern, we were really impressed by the apartment it had everything we needed. The shower was also lovely really good pressure. Fob system very modern too so that was a nice touch. All in all brilliant stay, thankyou so much.

Only thing we noticed was the light that turns off automatically in the bathroom would go off after about a minute or 2 including when we were in the shower so had to kind of wave a hand out of the shower to turn it back on so that may be worth looking into 🙂

Immaculately clean. A short walk from the centre. Free subscription to lots of streaming services. Good video intros to the property. Very comfortable bed. Close to train station and bus stops.

All good, but a few suggestions: might be good to have a hook on the bathroom door; we didn't take a car, but glad we didn't - the road outside was closed to traffic 3 times that week (event at the stadium, 10k race, and resurfacing)

• Location was perfect • Bed was very comfortable • TV features were great

• Musty/damp smell in the bathroom. • Parking isn’t available on event days, please be aware of this as we only found out when we went to renew our ticket on the Saturday morning to find it all coned off and signs up, ended up having to park in an NCP car park. • The UHT milk left floaters in my coffee, and not enough for a two night stay. • Room extremely warm as air con was not working

Comfortable bed, clean bed linen, comfortable pillows. Spacious room, well ventilated, bright paint on the walls. Big windows, lovely floor- non-slip. Close to shops and the market, good transport links. Opposite to the Principality Stadium an added bonus.

I'd prefer a proper wardrobe and a chest of drawers and a bedside table. A foot rug would be nice.

Great location, very nice facilities, super easy check in, TV with lots of streaming options, fast WiFi, friendly host.

The bed could be more comfortable, and there was quite a bright light coming from the WiFi AP on the ceiling, that was especially annoying at night (maybe it could be turned off by the owners for future guests).

This place was perfect! Beautiful interior, space was well used and the bed was super comfy! We stayed for the rugby and we were directly opposite the stadium and a 5 minute walk from the town centre 👌

The room got very warm but the windows opened all the way so that helped a bit but overall nothing

I can only say ‘stay here is you have the opportunity.’ Abi and Charlie are fabulous hosts; they treat the guests as family; and the home is spotless. Everything I wanted to see was within walking distance. It was quiet and most comfortable.

We felt really special as we were their first guests from opening and everything was brand new! Great communication beforehand and easy and fast self check in. 5 mins walk from the trains and 5 minutes from the conference I was attending so very convenient.

We only stayed one night but really enjoyed it. The room had a mini kitchen so we were able to prepare our own breakfast. Fridge was handy for our drinks also. Looking forward to returning!

Nothing - we had a perfect stay.
