Convenient to Aberystwyth with free parking. Rooms required an update, particularly in the bathroom, which looked tired. Excellent customer service and friendly staff. Continental breakfast good.

Overall a good stay. Very friendly helpful staff and an easy distance to walk into town. The restaurant stopped serving evening meals at 8.30pm which we thought was a little early, but the meal we had in the restaurant was excellent!

Can't believe the quality of the room for the price got a last minute deal for £45. The room was brilliant very new and modern well laid out and friendly staff. And the food at the restaurant was excellent. Can't fault it and I will definitely use it again if I go back to Aberystwyth.

Poor attitude
The shower did not work, when I reported it the young lady told me that it had been brought to het attention before. She then went on to assure me that it worked (it didn't)
