4/10 Poor

Staff is good but the accommodation needs improvement on the rooms
Kudakwashe, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Very nice staff and comfortable bed however the carpet was old and worn to the point where there was hoops of carpet big enough to trip me by the bathroom door and sharp pins sticking up from under the window where it should hold down the carpet but there was not much carpet left there .. a few stains on the wall but other than that enjoyed it
Jemima, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

I personally think there shoukd be more interior and decor to make the rooms feel more homely and comfortable but apart from that the beds were really comfy and lovely view of the sea front !!! :)
Harry, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

It was perfect,good stuff, clean, perfect room with view on the see, in a few words it was perfect
minciu, 2-night trip

Susan, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

David, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

The bed was a bit hard and the parking options are not great, but other than that it’s a good hotel with easy walking access to everything in aberystwyth
Joshua, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

good location decor and carpet very dated
ADELE, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

Nice views - through dirty, permanently locked windows. No ventilation or ac, no window to open. Free car park means park on the street. Very nartow shower - average person will struggle to get inside. To use the kettle, you need to put it on the floor - cable too short to connect it in position from the photo. Good things: kitchen. Beach at the other side of the road. Lot of dining options
Artur, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great forbthose wanting a room with a view

For the money, it was great. View was spectacular and the room was very clean and functional. Very happy with our stay.
JONATHAN, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Position was great. No mirror in bedroom or power in bathroom which meant you had to stand outside bathroom to dry your hair. Shower difficult to get into and move around but shower was good. Threadbare carpets on stairs. Blinds had no controller. Having said the above I would return purely for the position.
Angela, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Friendly welcome. Great location!
Sarah, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Threadbare carpet throughout the property, Stained bed sheets, it took the staff one hour to change the bedding with no apologies for the inconvenience , no ensuite as the shower was in a rotten cupboard, this property is not fit for human habitation.
Hairs in the bed, not mine
Stains on the sheet, also not mine
Black mold
Simon, 4-night trip

8/10 Good

The reception member of staff was excellent throughout our stay. Very friendly and approachable. I can’t comment on the service of the room as there wasn’t any. The room was very clean and equipped with a good hairdryer, ironing board and iron if you needed it along with soap and shampoo etc. The whole building is very tired and could do with money being spent on it especially the stair carpet which is thread bare in places and could be a hazard. It was fine for our needs.
patricia, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

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.
Michael, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

You expect a hotel but you see a run down hostel entrance. We wind through hallways with ripped shredded carpets. The room faces ocean. Bedding looks white and ironed. Carpets are still shredded to threads! Leaves impression of total neglect by management. Only bright side was cheery man who checked us in (from West Africa I suspect). We left after 1 night of a 3 night reservation. No refund. My advice: Give Aberystwyth a miss entirely and especially this place.
Ruth, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Excellent stay from all points of view

Room with a sea view was lovely. Nice to wake to the sound of the sea. Room was clean and comfortable. Nice little extras that we did not expect.
Dakota, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Convenient location on sea front. Comfortable room. Could do with new carpets.
Rhys, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

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.

Darren, 1-night trip

Great views of the sea and easy access to the town centre. We were made to feel most welcome and the receptionist was extremely helpful with local information.
