Overnight stay in Aberystwyth

Overnight stay - did exactly what was on the tin. Clean and smelling nice. Good breakfast too. Close to sea front, near middle so nice little walk to harbour and to opposite end with cliff train. We liked it.

Really like how close it is to the ocean, nice breakfast! However it can be challenging to find parking plus WiFi is a bit spotty on the top floor. Otherwise nice stay!

Check in and out was easy. The price and facilities were reasonable reasonable for a short stay. Breakfast was good, but could add fruit and porridge for vegans/ vegetarians.

Basic but clean

Clean and comfortable. We were able to park on the street right outside the hotel. It doesn’t have its own parking area. The problem was I didn’t realize it had a shared bathroom…it taught me a lesson to ensure future bookings are en-suite.

Nice b&b near the sea and castle ruins. Only 5 mins walk to edge of town centre. Welsh breakfast was very good! Our room was not en-suite, toilet and shower across a landing up and down a few steps.
