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.

Nice rooms, awful breakfast.

Comfortable rooms, as good as Premier Inn. The pub - where breakfast and dinner is served - is across the car park from the hotel. When it’s raining you get soaking wet. Marston could build a walkway between the two which would help enormously. The pub was modern style, comfortable but not what you’d call cosy. Staff very friendly but cheaply too few of them. Dinner plates weren’t cleared during the evening and if you weren’t eating you were directed to sit at the back of the pub - where people were eating anyway! So we had no choice but to sit amongst the smelly plates of previous diners. Not good. Breakfast was, frankly, awful. Overcooked, bacon as hard as cardboard, black pudding as limp as Charles Hawtrey’s handshake, hash browns as stiff as rigamortis. This food must have been sitting under the hot lights on the pass for at least 2 hours. No croissant, no yoghurt, no fruit, no orange juice. Even at £8.75 it was rotten value. Would I stay here again? Only if the Premier Inn is full and I’m not hungry.

Haven in the recent stormy weather.

Stormy weather closed in from the West and we chose this hotel as a halfway point between home and our destination to break the journey. The following morning, staff were very friendly and helpful looking up local weather and road reports for us and offering to extend our stay if needs be. The restaurant was very pleasant, the food well presented and tasty.

Not Great

Evening staff friendly, pleasant and helpful. Hotel was looking pretty tired and very basic. Breakfast was not good, no-one there to greet us, walked in and the chef came out and told us to sit somewhere and someone will be with us soon, 10 minutes later someone finally came out (we were the only people in the whole restaurant) My son had the pancakes and they appeared to be premade and then warmed in the microwave for way too long as they were rock hard on the edges and unable to cut them. Bacon was under cooked and orange juice tasted watered down. Overall very disappointing.

Very nice, clean and friendly

Staff very friendly, can’t fault them. Room very nice and basic. Rooms across car park in separate building. Clean and basic, ok room. Floor in bathroom very squishy and uneven. Heating didn’t work and it was freezing. Lady on reception very kindly offered to come and look at it but we decided not to stay the night, not the hotels fault at all, but bad weather due at home so wanted to travel back before snow fell heavy.
