It’s a really nice place for a family with kids and pets. We enjoyed our stay at this place a lot. Property is professionally managed and Pedro was really helpful and responsive. I’d recommend to future guests.

We had a great time in Pedro and Alina's place. The flat is modern, well furnished and beds are really comfortable. The neighbourhoor is quiet and peaceful, but the city centre is walking distance. Would highly recommend!

Pedro & Alina's property is a top spot with a luxurious yet homely feel. Pedro and Alina were responsive and took time to respond to my complaint about having to pay security deposit on top of the Airbnb charges. I would highly recommend

Beautiful stay in an amazing location, the hosts Pedro & Alina were incredibly accommodating, friendly & responsive. The apartment is even better than the photos in person - everything designed with an immaculate finish. The neighbourhood is lovely, lots of things to do and central, it was still very peaceful with a lovely sound of the birds in the garden in the morning. Overall, I’d highly recommend & will be staying again in the future! Thanks so much :)

My partner and I stayed Pedro and Alina’s apartment for a long weekend and we could not think of a better place to have stayed in. Situated in Pontcanna, the apartment is able to avoid the hustle and bustle of the city whilst only being a quick walk to the city centre. There are plenty of amenities around and we managed to visit some of the nearby cafes (our favourite being Ground Bakery.) The apartment is incredibly spacious and is decorated in a very clean but cosy manner. The shower was by far my favourite part of this flat! Whilst living in Cardiff for 6 years parking was always an issue, however, that was not the case here as Pedro and Alina recommended nearby free parking spots which we were able use for the entirety of our stay. Great hosts with excellent communication on the run up to our stay, I would recommend everyone to stay at this apartment if they are visiting Cardiff!
