    Nothing to not like

    Just as advertised, Central Studios was clean, comfortable and very close to central Cardiff. It is directly across the river from the Stadium, a short walk from the Castle and the market. Abi was very helpful and access to the property was easy. Full marks.

    Everything was great for the type of property. For some people they might think the area is a little sketchy but that didnt bother me.

    It was a studio - with kitchenette facilities.

    Nothing not to like really. The self check-in was clearly explained in the welcome email and WhatsApp messages. We had a room with a private terrace, which was at the back of the building and had no view, which suited us, but it may not be everyone's cup of tea.

    Excellent place to stay and it's literally in the shadow of the principality stadium. Perfect if you want privacy and easy access to the best parts of town and what Cardiff has to offer.

    Nothing to dislike.

    Smart apartment sited close by the Millennium stadium a few minutes walk away from the city centre. Checking in and key collection was all done via WhatsApp which worked well for us. Rooms were spotlessly clean and immaculate when we arrived and the shower was amazing. A great stay, thank you!

    Nothing. We stayed in number 3 in the Coach House out the back and it was just fine.

    Communication with the host was clear and prompt before and during our stay. The location was convenient and central. The bed was super comfortable and the shower was amazing. It really was so quiet that we forgot we were in a busy city. The place was spotlessly clean and warm , and the room being serviced each day was most welcome. The self check in and keyless entry was great as with the lockbox there was no danger of anyone being locked out.

    . Not keen on daily housekeeper just coming in with no “do not disturb” available.

    Ideally situated near the stadium and a short walk into town. Room was a good size with everything we needed and a few extras.

    It was a bit hard to find which apartment in the house was ours when we arrived. But the. All was fine and it was quiet since our apartment was at the back. It was cold in the bathroom (uncomfortable but still manageable)

    The location in town is ideal and the place was tidy and clean. Bed was very comfortable

    Central location - 5 minute walk from Cardiff Central Station and 10 minutes from St David’s Centre. Hassle free check-in. Clean, modern feel throughout, kitchenette had everything you could ever need. Room straightened daily and new towels provided every other day.

    Only thing was the lighting in the bathroom is on a timer and goes off when in the shower....have to keep opening shower door to activate it. But not a huge problem. Also would have been nice to have a bigger bowl/container for the microwave for heating soup etc. Other than that, was perfect :)

    Beautiful apartment. Very clean and smart. Balcony was an added bonus. Communication with the host was excellent. Fresh towels and toiletries every other day. Location is perfect...walking distance to city centre but no noise. Lovely warm room (I'm a cold person). Definitely will stay again!
