Well organised- great location - exceptional breakfast
The rooms were presented well and the staff were very friendly and helpful. I like the self-service check-in which meant we could take out time to settle. The breakfast was delicious and made freshly when ordered which was great. Overall, I enjoyed my stay and would definitely recommend visiting Aberystwyth.

Nice affordable stay. In particular we like to mention Richard who gave us breakfast during our 5 night stay. He was really helpful, professional and friendly
Easy self check-in, comfy bed, plenty of space for two, and a tasty breakfast. Staff were lovely and the shared bathroom was clean. A few carpet and furniture stains, and the room had a slightly cheesy smell, but overall a good stay.
Parking was easyily found. The check in was straightforward and the room comfortable and clean. The shared bathroom was clean and well maintained. Breakfast was good with friendly efficient staff.
Staff really friendly and helpful. Location couldn’t be better just a few minutes to the beach. Overall we would recommend staying here to anyone visiting Aberystwyth.
Friendly helpful staff, clean room, excellent breakfast - an unexpected bonus! Parking could have a bit more information about where it’s ok to park - we were unclear about the rules for yellow line parkinh
My daughter and myself had a one night stay in this property. Really enjoyed our stay there. Nice cosy place and breakfast to die for :)

Self check in fine, house a warren but found everything, room a good size, fought with the windows to open them eventually succeeding. New carpets were being laid so the lounge area was closed and other areas had bare gripper strips and underlay. The shared facilities were clean and all working though expect a wait for hot water if you are first in. A lovely breakfast cooked to order and our first interaction with staff which was nice. A great location for the beach, castle and town centre, parking pot luck on the surrounding streets. All in all, a little gem.
A picture perfect location by the sea. Street parking but no problems finding a spot. Staff were great, beds/pillows were comfy and breakfast was excellent, made to order and piled high. The only drawback was the shared washroom...for those who need to get up throughout the night it can be a
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!
Self check in worked well. Large room with side sea view. Comfy bed and clean room.
Good breakfast which was the first time we saw anyone from the b&b. Ideally situated for sea and not too far from the town. Would stay there again.
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.
