Accomodating & Lovely staff and easy to check in. Rooms are nice and spacious. Didn't use the cooking facilities but it looked very well equipped. If you go for a seaside view, the view is lovely.

This is very much a budget self catering accommodation that feels a bit hostel/HMO However its situated right on seafront with easy walking to any part of Aberystwyth. They also have lovely little cafe downstairs with lovely staff. Room was basic and a bit tight, but we were out and about each day so not an issue.

Unfortunately we had booked this property, however we had to check in at the adjoining hotel and given a room in that property which was not the room i had booked and was too small.and the bed was only a small.double and so old and uncomfortable we hardly slept! Toilet didnt flush properly.
I had booked a superior double in the hotel next door which i believe is owned by the same person. Will not be staying at either after this experience.

It is like it is. The time goes by in Aberytwith. The hotel is a good example for the city. Not bad but not more than average.

The property is on the seafront near the dog friendly area of the beach so very convenient for us.
The room was small and run down, the bathroom door did not shut and there was no running cold water however the water was fixed very quickly when we mentioned it.
The stay was ok but we will not be returning as there are far better places to stay in Aberystywth.

Budget friendly, clean place to stay but …
A clean place to stay with excellent sea views. Carpets are threadbare and finish is basic. A budget, clean place to stay.
Stair carpets are dangerous and should be replaced due to tripping hazards. This would also give a better first impression!

Needs serious improvement but perfect location.
Purely booked to use one key cash points and somewhere to go on bank holiday. Wouldn’t have paid full price (£80) for rear room. Carpet really worn out throughout property and doors needed work - the hotel room door had a big hole and bathroom door didn’t shut properly. Needs extensive renovation. We also noticed the room floor wasn’t level. However the room had everything you needed for short stay - had towels, toiletries, kettle, tea and coffee etc. Location was perfect and staff really friendly. Average stay!

Not anywhere on you site does it say that it is a hostel. First impression I got when was people slumped over the chairs in the common room, after my shower I had to dry myself with my own Tee shirt as towels were filthy. bed was very uncomfortable and too small as my feet hung out the bottom
