Accomodating & Lovely staff and easy to check in. Rooms are nice and spacious. Didn't use the cooking facilities but it looked very well equipped. If you go for a seaside view, the view is lovely.

This is very much a budget self catering accommodation that feels a bit hostel/HMO However its situated right on seafront with easy walking to any part of Aberystwyth. They also have lovely little cafe downstairs with lovely staff. Room was basic and a bit tight, but we were out and about each day so not an issue.

Unfortunately we had booked this property, however we had to check in at the adjoining hotel and given a room in that property which was not the room i had booked and was too small.and the bed was only a small.double and so old and uncomfortable we hardly slept! Toilet didnt flush properly. I had booked a superior double in the hotel next door which i believe is owned by the same person. Will not be staying at either after this experience.

The property is on the seafront near the dog friendly area of the beach so very convenient for us. The room was small and run down, the bathroom door did not shut and there was no running cold water however the water was fixed very quickly when we mentioned it. The stay was ok but we will not be returning as there are far better places to stay in Aberystywth.

Needs serious improvement but perfect location.
Purely booked to use one key cash points and somewhere to go on bank holiday. Wouldn’t have paid full price (£80) for rear room. Carpet really worn out throughout property and doors needed work - the hotel room door had a big hole and bathroom door didn’t shut properly. Needs extensive renovation. We also noticed the room floor wasn’t level. However the room had everything you needed for short stay - had towels, toiletries, kettle, tea and coffee etc. Location was perfect and staff really friendly. Average stay!

Budget friendly, clean place to stay but …
A clean place to stay with excellent sea views. Carpets are threadbare and finish is basic. A budget, clean place to stay. Stair carpets are dangerous and should be replaced due to tripping hazards. This would also give a better first impression!

Great views of the sea and easy access to the town centre. We were made to feel most welcome and the receptionist was extremely helpful with local information.

Not anywhere on you site does it say that it is a hostel. First impression I got when was people slumped over the chairs in the common room, after my shower I had to dry myself with my own Tee shirt as towels were filthy. bed was very uncomfortable and too small as my feet hung out the bottom

The chap who was on reception during our stay (Abdallah - apologies if I've misremembered, or misspelt, his name) was welcoming, helpful, pleasant and friendly. The room was very comfortable, and the presence of a fridge was very welcome, as was access to the kitchen downstairs. In the bathroom, the shower was great, but the toilet was a little bit tall/raised up, making it a bit awkward to sit on, and the seat wouldn't stay up on its own and had to be held in place in case it fell back down. The coffee and cake in the cafe downstairs were lovely and reasonably priced. Some of the carpet on the stairs was a little worn and, while it wasn't a problem for us, it could be a potential safety issue if it's not replaced/repaired soon. Overall, an enjoyable stay.

Stayed in #11 of Cardigan Bay Guest House and it had a gorgeous view of the ocean, size just right for one or two guests. Easy walking distance to most everything In Aberystwyth. Friendly staff! 50 steps up the stairs as it is on the top floor. Would stay there again.
