A lovely overnight stay on our way to Llangrannog to stay with friends; Excellent!!!

Pros: The welcome was really great, check-in was easy too. The room was very nice, comfy and clean, good bathroom too. We were planning to eat out but soon decided that the restaurant at the hotel was really appealing so we stayed for dinner and went for a walk afterwards.

Cons: Can't think of a single thing. This place obviously attracts a similar thinking people to us and we will definitely stay here anytime we're in Aber again.

Beautiful sea front Guest House

Pros: Room was spotless as was shower etc. Breakfast was beautiful and presented with a smile. Well done all involved. Real bonus was being able to park on the sea front as the Glengower is further up the promenade than other hotels.

Cons: I think that Aberystwyth town council should deploy one of it's trucks to sweep up the gravel on the prom,(washed up by winter storms) It makes it uncomfortable to walk on and detracts from the overall beauty of the sea front. Come on Aberystwyth; look after your little gem. For comparison visit any sea front on the Med or Canary Islands and you'll find that that happens at dawn every morning, and the beach is swept clean too.
