Karú Suites

This was a wonderful place to stay. For me, the 3 best aspects were: 1. The location - a few mins walk from restaurants & bars, and 10 mins walk to the town centre, but on a gorgeous small street in a lovely area (Villanova). 2, The rooftop terrace - a great big open space with loungers and views of the Castello to the west and Monte Urpino to the east, over the roofscape of VIllanova. 3. The service - we're very grateful to Lucrezia, Magherita and the team at Strangiu. They got in touch with us before the trip with helpful suggestions, and were available throughout our stay with fast responses to any queries. Thanks so much! For anyone thinking of driving, be advised that the property is inside the Cagliari ZTL. However, there is a good and convenient multistorey car park (Apcoa) on Viale Regina Elena, which is only 5 mins walk from the property (or 10 mins with heavy baggage). At time of writing, the cost for 24hrs was €11.

A beautiful apartment right in the center of old Cagliari

The steps were steep

Vi var i Cagliar för ett idrottsevenemang. Vi stannade i 10 nätter och hade en fantastisk vistelse där. Läget i villa Nova (gamla stan) var perfekt. En lugn sidogata och ungefär 15 minuters promenad till hamnen där dom flesta restaurangerna ligger. Rummet har ett kylskåp, en vattenkokare, en espressomaskin och en tv. Nu tittade vi aldrig på tv, men jag knäppte på den en kväll och kunde konstatera att det var en smart-tv med mängder av kanaler. Badrummet var stort och fint och terassen var härlig med vacker utsikt. Wifin fungerade utan problem hela vistelsen. Värden var fantastisk. Skulle vilja säga bättre service än man kan förvänta sig på ett hotell. Dom var hjälpsamma, trevliga och ingen gång vi frågade om något tog det mer än fem minuter innan vi fick svar. Vi var väldigt nöjda och kan verkligen rekomendera boendet. Vi hade det lite större boendet med takterass.

Egentligen finns det inget jag inte tyckte om. Det enda man kan tänka sig (mer för värden) är att placera parasollet på terassen någon annanstans. Det var för otympligt för oss att flytta på den, och med det läget den står på nu så ger den inget direkt skydd mot solen. Det var egentligen inget som bekymrade oss utan mer ett konstaterande.

Excellent central location, ideal for exploring Cagliari on foot. The room itself is comfortable and well-equipped.

Despite the name "Suites" suggesting hotel-style services, this is in fact a self check-in apartment: - Staff: we did not see anyone during our 5-day stay. Access is via a door code, communication is exclusively through WhatsApp. - Cleaning: nothing was done in the room during the entire 5 days - not even a change of towels or bed linen. - Services: practically non-existent. We were even asked to take out the trash from the room ourselves. - The "Balcony, City view" feature officially listed on Booking for the Triple Comfort room does not match reality: the two small balconies face directly onto a wall of the building opposite, with no view at all. At the time of booking, I was only informed that the room had small balconies (not a terrace), but not that they offered no view. - Parking: difficult, although understandable for a city centre location. I would recommend the host clarify in the listing that this is a self check-in apartment without hotel services, and correct the description regarding the room's view.
