Short break in Aberystwyth
Lovely well-positioned hotel on the sea front. Friendly staff and good choice of food for breakfast which was cooked to order. Had an evening meal too which was also very good. Downside is there is no lift so climbing up to the second floor was an effort (we are in our 70's) but we did know this before we arrived so can't complain.

Room 11 the single bed was narrow and very uncomfortable. For this reason only I would not stay again, as it was not a good night's sleep. All other facilities were good though.

A good find
What a lovely place. Great food, lovely room at the back. Room had very good furniture and bed plus a lovely stand up fan which you can find in the wardrobe! This place is a great find if you are venturing to Aberystwyth. Parking is not too bad either!
