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
Good budget hotel. Will stay again. Staff lovely, bed comfy. Big shared kitchen so you can self cater if you want to.

Nice place and good value, but tired.
Great view and overall I was happy with the accommodation. Carpet is a bit threadbare and bathroom door needs to be slammed to shut. It was clean and today and for my purposes it was fine. Location is great and the view is amazing.

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 !!! :)
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.

The hosts we really nice! The rooms were fine, the seafront views were lovely. However, heat was not on the first night and it was quite cold. Additionally, the hallway had quite a musty smell. The building is a bit run down. Overall, for the price, it was a decent stay and I would come back in a pinch!

Convenient location on sea front. Comfortable room. Could do with new carpets.
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.

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

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.

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.
