If you want a great location to be able to walk to a lot of shops, restaurants and sights, this is one to consider. It had great security. If you are traveling with a car, you will be challenged with finding parking and you will have to walk quite a ways to get to and from your car. Otherwise, this was a very comfortable place to hang out in Cardiff. ##### Kimberly D. Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Sean D. 28 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Check-in, communication #### Great spot but had some issues. Pros: -Great location -Beautiful and clean interior -Kitchen comes with necessary appliances -Great value for what you pay for Cons -Check in was way too difficult for no reason. Essentially you have to get your key from a lockbox that is on a bike in the city center. The company gave us the wrong combination which made the whole ordeal very frustrating. We had to use international minutes (expensive) in order to call them and the company did not offer to reimburse us for our troubles. -The instructions left for us stated we would have access to hot water 24/7. This was not true as one day we did not have any hot water at all, even after we "boosted" the water heater as the instructions told us to. -Even though they disclose the security deposit required in the listing, I still think it is silly to make us have to use a third party vendor for a security deposit when VRBO offers such services. ##### Sean D. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Constanze 16 Dec 2022 Liked: Amenities, communication Disliked: Property conditions & facilities The location is amazing and the apartment is equipped with everything that one needs (e.g., laundry tabs, tabs for the dishwasher, fully equipped kitchen...). Unfortunately, the bathroom lock & door handle was completely broken. I informed the landlord and they promptly contacted somebody to come and fix it. This person was in contact with me, but never showed up. The apartment was clearly recently cleaned for my stay, but it cannot hurt to get a deeper clean (e.g., the bed sheets had residuals, as well as the washing machine etc.). All in all - a good accomodation with an amazing location! ##### Constanze ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Bryn Meadows Golf, Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Bryn-Meadows-Golf.h2582663.Hotel-Information) > > [The Priory Hotel and Restaurant](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-The-Priory-Hotel-And-Restaurant.h17828361.Hotel-Information) > > [Cwrt Bleddyn Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Ramada-Resort-By-Wyndham-Cwrt-Bleddyn-Hotel-Spa.h486291.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Pontypool Metro Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Best-Western-Pontypool-Metro-Hotel.h6407832.Hotel-Information) > > [Future Inns Cardiff Bay](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Future-Inns-Cardiff-Bay.h1160305.Hotel-Information) > > [voco St David's Cardiff by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Voco-St-Davids-Cardiff.h545633.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Newport by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Newport.h1048193.Hotel-Information) > > [Crofts Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-The-Crofts.h38726361.Hotel-Information) > > [Celtic International Hotel Cardiff Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Celtic-International-Hotel-Cardiff-Airport.h17056957.Hotel-Information) > > [New House Country Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-New-House-Country-Hotel.h27938.Hotel-Information) > > [The Coal Exchange Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-The-Exchange-Hotel.h18075906.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Cardiff Bay by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Cardiff-Bay.h520001.Hotel-Information) > > [Century Wharf by Urban Space](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Century-Wharf-By-Urban-Space.h54283573.Hotel-Information) > > [Coldra Court Hotel by Celtic Manor](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Coldra-Court-Hotel-By-Celtic-Manor.h542557.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn NEWPORT by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-NEWPORT.h10273.Hotel-Information) > > [Jolyon's Boutique Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Jolyons-Boutique-Hotel.h1869025.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure Cardiff North Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Mercure-Cardiff-North-Hotel.h20256.Hotel-Information) > > [The Maltsters Arms](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-The-Maltsters-Arms.h36709474.Hotel-Information) > > [Cardiff Metropolitan University, Plas Gwyn Halls - Campus Accommodation](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Cardiff-Metropolitan-University.h30551499.Hotel-Information) > > [Llechwen Hall Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Llechwen-Hall-Hotel.h4035488.Hotel-Information) > > [Lincoln House Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Lincoln-House-Hotel.h4632904.Hotel-Information) > > [Newbridge on Usk](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Newbridge-On-Usk.h68603360.Hotel-Information) > > [The Old Barn Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-The-Old-Barn-Inn.h11900846.Hotel-Information) > > [Village Hotel Cardiff](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Village-Hotel-Cardiff.h200304.Hotel-Information) > > [Lanelay Hall Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Lanelay-Hall-Hotel-Spa.h19385738.Hotel-Information) > > [Parkway Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Parkway-Hotel-Spa.h10704.Hotel-Information) > > [Cardiff University, Talybont Gate Residence](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Cardiff-University.h30551505.Hotel-Information) > > [Staybridge Suites Cardiff by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cardiff-Hotels-Staybridge-Suites-Cardiff.h68218398.Hotel-Information)
