Sufia was a wonderful host, she made me feel so at home and was super accommodating and friendly.
This is one of the most beautiful houses I’ve ever stayed in. The room is so lovely with a gorgeous comfortable bed and a beautiful bathroom.
I had an amazing stay here and was only a 20 min approx walk into town/new theatre.
Would highly recommend for your Cardiff stay!
