Traveling as a family of four with older children, no lock on bathroom doors, room with sea view was a good size but other room was a bit small for our needs. Dog was allowed which was brilliant. Room was great for a short term stay.

Very pleasant - Never judge a book by it's cover

The hotel looks pretty tired from outside but rooms and reception area had been updated to an excellent standard. Breakfast was great with plenty of choices. Only slightly negative comment is that the breakfast was served in a large ball room which lacked atmosphere. A few flower arrangements separating the tables from the large dance floor would have made the difference.

This place sucks!

The property was so disgusting that we chose not to stay there and refused the room. The property was extremely outdated and misrepresented in your ad. It looked and appeared to be a slum in a major American city decrepit and in disrepair. The lobby was like lipstick on a pig. I will be disputing the charge.

We stayed at the Best Western Aberavon Beach for 3 nights. It was a very pleasant Hotel The staff very friendly and helpful . Aidan especially on reception. We used it as a central base to be able to travel around the area eg Porthcawl The Mumbles Swansea etc which worked very well. There is a leisure centre with swimming pool next door and two very good restaurants just passed that. The Hotel itself was undergoing some refurbishment which did not impact on our stay. The breakfast is very good with a very extensive menu and the waitresses only too happy to help. We were welcomed with complimentary biscuits and refreshments in our room which was clean and comfortable .Even had a bath to my excitement. If I had to add a negative but not the hotel fault Expedia who we booked through were still advertising on their itinerary that the Hotel had pool and spa facilities for guests. It had been shut for some years now apparently. We were told by the hotel though that we could use the next door leisure centre free of charge. Slightly disappointing as we went armed with our cosi to make use of the bubbles, and were not willing to go next door for the pool. Lovely big carpark all free another bonus.
