    Beautiful old building renovated really well within walking distance to everything Aber has to offer
    • Leisure trip
    • Family with young children
    • Apartment - Ground Floor
    • Stayed 4 nights

    It was difficult to obtain a 2nd set of keys for the apt which we needed - I think this should be available automatically. Also the couch in the lounge room was extremely uncomfortable and had some stains. Otherwise everything was excellent.

    Stayed in the 2bdrm apartment on the ground floor which has everything you need and is close to the town, promenade and beach, it's a great apartment and position. Also has its own parking at the back of the accommodation which is really handy.

    It would be handy in a full kitchen to have paper towels, a dishcloth, oil and salt and pepper.

    Beautifully appointed and very warm, spacious and comfortable.

    The apartment is on a fairly busy road and has lots of big, single glazed windows so we felt overlooked at times with people going by and could hear lots of passing noise. The beds were uncomfortable and the bathrooms both had issues with plumbing which we put up with for a couple of nights but would get annoying if staying longer. There was also an EV charger in the carpark but it wasn't clear if we could use it or not...

    The location was good, 2 mins from the seafront and shops etc, and it was great to have parking in the centre of Aber. The kitchen was well equipped and it was lovely to have the little outside garden space to sit out.

    Different apartment allocated than booked.

    Booked ground floor room on website, and the confirmation email stated that I had booked Llys Yr Wylan (No 2) and its a ground floor apartment. However on arrival was given a different apartment (No 5) that was on the first floor. I had booked the ground floor as our daughter was going into hospital for an operation and possibly wouldn't be able to climb stairs when discharged. Thankfully she was able to, otherwise we would have had a major problem. If another person had arrived and they had accessibility issues and they had found themselves on the first floor I hate to think how they could have managed. When I challenged the allocation, we were offered a ground floor apartment for the second day, but by then it didn't matter so we stayed put. No issue with apartment itself just the mix up with the booking allocation.

    Great location. Beautiful decor and very clean.

    (1) Our apartment directly faced the street at ground level so we had to draw the curtains in most of the rooms otherwise pedestrians could see directly in. (2) There was an internal hall light and external porch lights on all night which we had no control over and it prevented my partner from sleeping. (3) the compendium related to the hotel and not the apartment. This should be updated asap. (4) the combo washer dryer merely made the clothes hot, rather than dry

    The apartment was light, spacious and extremely well appointed. It was a short walk to the promenade. The exterior of the building is architecturally pleasing and the small grounds relaxing. Parking was off street.

    Just lacked a little attention to detail… info pack was obviously standard for the nearby sister hotel rather than the self catering apartments. Still not sure if there was a safe anywhere. Just needs a bit of tlc here and there - ie lampshades need replacing on lamps.

    Building was a fab period property in a great central location - with private parking at the rear, what a bonus in Aberystwyth. Really impressed with size of the apartment and there were some lovely features including double doors opening out onto a little garden with benches. Picked up/dropped off keys from nearby hotel and the receptionist was particularly helpful and friendly. I would have given full marks except I felt a couple of things were showing signs of wear and tear but I’d certainly stay again. Very close to town and beach but area was very quiet. We paid top dollar for a one night stay as it was graduation week - but all hotels etc were similar price tbf but just for a double room so, all in all, I felt the apartment was very good value. Thank you.

    Noise from the adjoining apartment. Location of the hot tub on the car park made it unuseable. No instructions on where to put out rubbish. Nor daily clean/refresh of bins by owners. The oven didn't work.

    Very close to the beach, high street, restaurants. The rooms were large and the patio was very useful Superb building beautifully restored.

    The beds where little uncomfortable..Only one toilet for 2 rooms..we were 4 adults and one child..

    We were given a different apartment,not the one which I booked..was not sure why the change.. the apartment which was given to us was not far away from the hotel, where you need to pickup the Keys from..so it didn't matter much to me..This apartment was called Grosvenor. Close to the beach.Also you have a sea view if you peep out of the window..Free car parking near the beach side..

    Some more mugs and plates would be nice! There was a dishwasher but we usually had to wash up by hand because there was only just enough crockery. The furniture needs to be pulled out and cleaned behind more often.

    Close to town. Has everything you need.

    Instructions about where to park were vague, but once we found it the parking area was ample and convenient right behind the apartments. Some of the kitchen equipment had not been cleaned thoroughly by previous visitors, this should really be checked between each letting. Otherwise everything was beautifully clean and tastefully decorated. Thank you.

    Beautifully presented, tastefully decorated and very clean. A few minutes walk from the beach and restaurants. An ideal location for our purpose which was to visit the area and attend Aber University open day. If our child opts to study here we will be making future bookings to stay again.
