It was clean, there were clear instructions, had everything one needs, decorated with detail, it’s close to the bus stations and there is free on-street parking available.
There is no bath. Very small hand basin area in the bathroom. No extra blanket available for the bed.

Well fitted out most things you would need were available.
Bathroom sink is tiny and not usable except for hand washing and teeth cleaning though rinsing is difficult as there are shelves in the way.
Parking was a chore we had to park two roads away.
the beded was comfy but mattress was foam I think because it felt hot to sleep in.

Lovely apartment with everything we needed
Bedroom floor very creaky as was the floor in the apartment next door (no 6). Didn’t help that the guests next door sounded like they needed to get their steps in late at night

Good location, although definitely the Gabalfa end of Whitchurch. A 20 minute walk into the village with good pubs and restaurants. Surprisingly quiet considering it is close to busy roads. On a bus route for the city. The flat was modern and very clean and is ideal for a weekend stay. On road parking outside was a bonus.
A pint of milk in the fridge on arrival would have been helpful.

Easy parking, quiet building, clean property and free late checkout.
Sofa a little uncomfortable and a TV in the bedroom would have improved things a little.

Nothing.

Its a great location and easy to check in and out with a private key box to collect and drop off your keys. There was plenty of off road parking and it also felt safe and secure which is really important when staying somewhere alone
No issues and nothing that I didn't like, I would definitely stay here again & hope that this accommodation is available on my next rip to wales.

Everything is modern, new and clean. There is plenty of space and comfortable furnishings. The kitchen is well equipped and there were supplies of tea, coffee etc.
There is a large roof terrace with views of the hills, which would be lovely in warm weather.
There was no guest handbook although the emails said there would be, so we had to make phonecalls to sort out a pressing problem.
There are steep stairs to the flat, and inside.

Easy location to find, plenty of free on road parking. Good communication throughout and clear instructions regarding keys and check in. Apartment was clean, excellently equipped and very comfortable. A real home from home experience in a quiet setting. Comfy bed, good bathroom facilities, spacious open plan kitchen and lounge with everything you would need. We really appreciated the extra touches like a coffee machine with a choice of capsules, the tasteful decor and the all important iron and ironing board. We only stayed two nights but would have been happy there for a week. Great experience!
Nothing in particular at all. Just a recommendation that the shower head bracket might need replacing. It worked to hold the shower in place when the water was turned on, but only just….

Loved the apartment. Great stay and definitely will be re booking when I next come to Wales. Everything was there and needed. Could not ask for anything more for the price 👍

It was clean and like home. Free Parking on streets.
We had a great stay and host was super helpful.
We had 1 bedroom loft room in the apartment and one below. It was hot and humid and difficult to sleep on night 1 in the loft room, however the host was very helpful and dropped a fan to use. We fixed the fan! Quick service and helped us sleep

The property was spotless with all the amenities you could want, a home from home. East access to the city centre and lots of parking.Could not hear the other apartments. The hosts were contactable instantly and resolved the problem with the front door straight away 👍
Nothing... only thing that I would have liked was a TV in the bedroom. The shower in the ensuite does need fixing as it won't stay where it's put, but there is a second shower to use.

Very clean, comfortable, high standard facilities. Clare was a great help with the door codes 😀
Easy to get to, off a main road so easy to find.
Velux window in upstairs bedroom is directly over the bed, so if you open it, bits of dirt off the roof end up on the bed.
