A short break to take advantage of a few days of elusively good weather saw my husband and me book a short notice trip to the Welsh capital. The apartment reserved for us by SACO was plain but spacious and very clean. We had a ground floor allocation with two double bedrooms (one with en-suite shower) and a large living... More

We had such a delightful relaxing stay here in Cardiff. The apartment had the wow factor when we arrived with absolutely EVERYTHING you would require at your stay. We travelled to watch the Wales v Ireland rugby game. We came back to the apartment earlier than planned due to its comfortable atmospheric feel. Most thoroughly enjoyed all aspects of the... More

Excellent service - excellent apartments. Spotlessly clean, freshly decorated & furnished to high standard. Staff couldnt do enough to help. I will definately stay again. Car parking very convenient and I had an apartment in the back building which was very quiet.

Spacious apartment (1 bed) well furnished and clean. Faultless instructions on key access etc which means no messing around checking in etc. Only thing I could fault was that upon arrival, the heating was on very low and so with winter upon us, it was cold upon entering the apartment - quickly fixed. Will use them again

Clean, spacious well situated apartment. 20min walk from central station, or about £3 by taxi. Efficient entry by picking up the keys from the key safe rather than waiting around for someone to meet you. Would definately use again.

These new stylish apartments have all one could require for a self catering stay in Cardiff. Just minutes from the Millenium stadium, on a central,wide road.Nearly converted,very large Victorian house. Keys are found in a key safe inside the front door, which was a bit fiddly, via a digital entry code to front door, which was sent with the booking... More

We could not put my mother to sleep on the designated sofa bed as the springs were just so hard - my mother therefore had the double bed and bedroom and my husband and I slept on the floor - awoke the following morning and purchased a mattress topper. Sleep therefore on 2nd night was better but the traffic and... More
