• Rizwan (10/5): Stylish room with parking! - The Black and white decor is all CLASS. The room was so clean and well decorated. Lana was so welcoming. I wanted to stay for one more night, even though I was in Cardiff just for a day for an exam. Definately coming back once again for leisure! Nothing.
• Mohandas (10/5): - The host was really kind and sweet
• Ron (9/5): A really good experience, quite happy to stay again. - Location in Cardiff, room facilities, ease of parking and, a very friendly, welcoming owner. For me, the bed could have been a little firmer.
• Aaron (10/5): Homely stay with a great host - Lana (The Host) was very friendly and welcoming. She was very kind and gave us advice on places to go to and transportation to the city.
• Nicole (10/5): -
• Gert (10/5): Nice room for a couple of nights - Cozy room in a home, everything needed was there, especially the fridge and microwave. Easy parking and location wise an excellent place.
• Matteo (9/5): - La camera ed il bagno sono al piano superiore, con una scala che conduce alle stanze. Confortevole e arredata con dettagli. Bagno funzionale. Forse la doccia da migliorare il bocchettone poichè cosi come è è inutilizzabile nella parte alta ma fruibile solo con il sifone mobile. L’Host è molto simpatica, disponibile, insieme con le due splendide mascotte della casa che allietano e rendono molto familiare gli spazi. E’ disponibile uno spazio esterno molto carino e funzionale, il tutto in quartiere residenziale carino, accanto ad un fornitissimo supermercato con tutti i principali servizi. Consigliato per soggiorni informali ma comodi e vicino a tutti i servizi.

• Javier (10/5): Great stay. Highly recommended!!! - Everything great: comfy, clean and great service! Nothing. All perfect.
• Ben (8/5): Very good - Beautiful room and bathroom. Alexa. Sky TV. Refrigerator and powerful fan. The curtains keep the room very dark for sleeping. Two lovely dogs. And Lana was a great host. Springy bed.
• Jon (9/5): Excellent but it could have been exceptional - Layout,comfort, facilities It was a shame the tv wouldn’t work properly the host didn’t know a lot about how to fix it which was a shame
• Sarah (10/5): Exceptional Mini Break at the Perfect home from home - The room was really spacious and so was the ensuite with bath and shower over with everything you could think of. Plenty of storage and tv with sky and Alexa in the room too even turning on and off the lights. USB ports in the bedside lights which we did not realise until the morning we were leaving. There is fridge and freezer plenty big enough to store what you need and even a tub of ice cream and ice cubes. Toaster, kettle with crockery too not forgetting the corksrew and hairdryer. Bottle of water, tea and coffee facilities. Nothing was too much trouble and if you needed anything you just asked. Plenty of privacy with key for the room. Decor very chique and it was spotless! Location was perfect, nice quiet area and security high with parking outside Lanas garage. Morrisons just a walk around the corner with cafe including breakfast being served all day. ALDI and Lidl not far either and walking distance to a couple of family friendly pubs also selling food. Bus stop just down the road and £2.50 per person whether you want a couple of stops or into the city. If you fancy a walk it's about 1 hour 10 minutes depending on how fast you walk, we did it in an hour from Blackwier Fields. Lana is a fantastic host and we received such a warm welcome, we will definitely be back and could not recommend this accommodation more. Nothing! We were really impressed and it was more than we expected for such a fantastic price!
• Maria (10/5): Exceptional -
• Gail (10/5): Comfortable, friendly and well worth the money. - Laura very friendly, I liked that the room had a fridge and freezer in the room as well as a toaster. Also sky channels. Maybe a slightly firmer mattress but the room was lovely and really homely.
• Elizabeth (10/5): Exceptional - Excellent room with an excellent host. Thoroughly recommend it. Very spacious room and exceptional good value for money
• Karolina (10/5): Exceptional -
• Komrul (10/5): Exceptional - Very clean, great decor, good location, free parking, great host
• Vimal (10/5): Exceptional - I had a very pleasant stay at this property. The place was exceptionally clean, the facilities were excellent, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable and well-maintained stay. Host was very friendly and nice
• Moneshwar (9/5): Superb - Clean and cozy room. Friendly host who was very helpful
• Katharine (9/5): Superb - Good facilities, Lana was lovely, as were her 2 dogs. Within walking distance of the hospital, took me around 35 minutes and with free parking at the home, took away that stress of finding somewhere to park for the whole day.
• Anonymous (9/5): Superb -
• Linda (10/5): Lana was so welcoming and offered the use of her kitchen - Everything Nothing to dislike
• Ashna (8/5): Very good -
• Andrew (10/5): Lana was a great host and made me feel at home but also respected my privacy - Comfortable and clean Nothing

• Juan (10/5): Exceptional - Its a fantastic home. Much clean and room very good. The host is a amazing person very friendly. The neighborhood is very calm. We recommened home is a beautiful and room very quiet. It is a very warm and cozy house. Thank so much for everything.
• Gareth (9/5): Superb -
• Brogan (10/5): Best air b & b in Cardiff - The room was beautiful, with decor that made it feel more homely than a standard hotel room. The en suite had a bath and was all very clean. The lady who rents out this room is a beautiful human being, as are her two dogs! (If you aren’t a dog person or have allergies, don’t worry, they aren’t allowed upstairs and have never been in the room you rent) and if you are a dog person, which I very much am, she lets them say hello and you get free cuddles. The landlady had no issues with my friend popping across and visiting me for a couple of hours. I’ve stayed in a few air b and b’s in Cardiff and this is without a doubt the best. Will definitely be trying to book this space again on my next visit. Thanks for everything x
• Thomas (10/5): Best experience - Everything No complaints
• Jamie (10/5): Lovely host with cute dogs and beautiful home - Lana was very accomodating and considerate especially given our difficult circumstances.
• Michael (10/5): Don’t think twice quality accommodation book it - All round excellent Lana very welcoming Nothing all great warm welcome
• Emilia (1/5): Worst experience ever - Literally nothing First of all the advertising is nothing close to the truth! It’s not saying someone live in at the property, not saying anything about having animals! After driving all day long i couldn’t wait to have a shower and go to bed and rest as next day we had to be back on the road, but as soon as we get to the property we got the unpleasant surprise of someone living in, having a dog who started barking as soon as we approached the dor and a strong smell of cooking. I don’t have anything with any of this in general but not when you just wanna relax and have some privacy. More than that we asked for a refund thing what wasn’t possible as they don’t do that! I wouldn’t recommend to anyone

• Robmarsh (8/5): Typical Welsh hospitality in a very neat and tidy room. - A lovely and friendly host with a beautiful and cleverly decorated room close to the station and routes to Cardiff central.

• Jason (9/5): Superb -
• Istvan (10/5): Exceptional -
• Peggy (10/5): I come back whenever I stay in Cardiff fore sure! - I had everything I needed and more. I didn’t need the ventilator as I visited in Oktober or the fridge. A warm cup of tea or coffee in the morning and off I was. The whole property is lovely decorated and with an eye to detail. I had my own floor and the owner of the house always helpful and very friendly. Nothing
• Tracey (9/5): Very clean room with en-suite. Friendly host and guest parking available. Morrisons next door - Lovely room with friendly host and guest parking available
• Alex (10/5): Ideal for a base to visit the area, made the trip all round even better - Lana is a very helpful and welcoming host, and the double bedroom and en-suite bathroom are both spotless. There’s even a fridge, microwave , and tea making facilities in the room. It’s so convenient for the M4 and visiting the area. And if you need it there’s a supermarket I minute walk! Lovely and quiet. Just what was needed! Thank you Lana! Nothing
• Mark (10/5): Exceptional - Clean ,comfortable home. V friendly host
• Alexandra (10/5): Exceptional - This really was a Cosy home from home. I was down in Cardiff for work, this place really made my trip super easy and comfortable. Great location in a nice neighbourhood, and the room was really clean, with a beautiful en suite bathroom and really comfy bed. It had all the mod cons you need for a super relaxed stay. It was great having the kettle/microwave/fridge, it meant after a long drive and arriving late, I could have a quick bite to eat. The host thought about everything providing tea, coffee, water, cutlery/plates and was happy to help with anything. It felt like a really nice hotel but in somebody's home. The host was super friendly, and I will definitely be back. Thank you!
