    Room too hot in the evening also my room was by the bathroom so heard people walking bk and for was very annoying having epilepsy lack of sleep can cause a fit also when booking they showed a different picture of the property so when looking was looking for a totally different place

    They accepted my dog which was lovely as not many places too plus being a solo traveller it can be hard work but accepting my dog helped staff very friendly

    No communication as to where to go to get keys or breakfast. Had to walk to a local hotel to pick them up after being told by another visitor. Also had to go to the other hotel for breakfast. Only one bathroom for 9 bedrooms 2 toilets in total. One was out of order .

    Bed was comfy and it was clean, staff were very friendly and helpful.

    To be honest i don’t like kitchen and toilets. It really needs proper cleaning and maintenance. so, you should give proper care about it.

    i really like the room . I also like the breakfast meal.

    Room 6 on the first floor was in dire need of updating and redecorating it was a shame as the lower floor was clean and presentable .

    The food was exceptional and the food areas were spotless, breakfast buffet and plenty of choice 😋

    Shared bathroom, on my confirmation it said private bathroom. No parking close to the hotel, you can park outside if you're lucky but only for a limited time.

    Close to everything. Breakfast at the four seasons. Very friendly staff.

    First off - we expected very basic, due to the price. These are just things that should be made clearer. Parking is fine - but not as advertised. Public parking for 2 hours am/and then overnight but not for the day time. There's a car park a couple of minutes walk round the corner, £6 a day, which is fine so not sure why they don't just say that instead of 'public parking available on site'. It's just warden controlled street parking or public carpark nearby. The wifi didn't work - plenty of signal but said the password was incorrect. This had been the case in a few previous reviews and when we queried it on the second day, staff said they were aware and that it might get sorted at some point. However, they hadn't told us this on arrival. Bedrooms are basic, which is to be expected for the price, but not ideally set up - the kettles in both rooms were on the floor, presumably as they didn't reach any other surface once plugged in. Curtain fell off the rail when opened because there was no stopper. Returned from a day out to find my bedroom door hadn't even been closed properly, let alone locked, with bed made and cleaning spray in there - again not the end of the world but as the main front door to the property is always unlocked, not ideal from a basic security point of view. There was no handle on the door, and it was quite stiff, so anyone with mobility issues in their hands might struggle to open it from the inside.

    The location is fantastic - so close to the beach, town, train station and funicular rail. Breakfast (offered just down the road at Four Seasons hotel) is also really good.

    no towels, or toiletries. Bathroom in a mess, rubbish scattered all over. Noisy place, people above banging about for hours. Didn't receive any info about how to check in. By chance a fellow guest informed me I had to get my key from another place down the road. Witnessed a row between staff and guests, unpleasant.

    location was excellent, close to beaches, centre of town.

    The Morawel building is a few metres from the main hotel where you check in, but I did not know this and no one had told me. I had booked a room with a shared bathroom. Several things did not work, just small things that make a difference 1- in the two wardrobes there was not even a hanger so it was impossible to hang clothes 2- the only light night in the room did not work 3- there wasn't even a hook in the room for hanging towels or jackets 4- there was no mirror on the walls. there was only one inside a wardrobe but it was uncomfortable 5- there was no hair dryer 6- smoke smell in the bathroom and rooms 7- THERE WAS NO INTERNET

    Great location and very nice and clean room fantastic breakfast in the beautiful main hotel very friendly staff. when I complained that the internet was missing in our building, they offered to move me to another building. i preferred to stay there and use the internet in the lobby of the main hotel

    When I got there I found the b&b but couldn't get in then someone came to show someone there room when I asked I was told I had to go and check in at the four seasons hotel up the road I am disabled so struggled to get there as my crutches were strapped onto my scooter when I checked in I was told that I wasn't in the hotel I booked they had put me in a different one round the back and I was on the top floor there were tea making facilities ie kettle tea bags and milk and sugar but no sink or spoon I had to struggle down two flights of stairs just to fill the kettle up from the shower room which was dirty as was the toilets and to be brutally honest the rest of the building was filthy also.my room didn't have any way of hanging any clothes up not even my coat there were plug sockets hanging off the wall and the windows, net curtains and curtains were filthy as was the carpet the bed was just about passable and it took me a long time and effort to get my bag,crash helmet and riding gear up to the room I decided to stay I knew it was a shared toilet and bathroom but I had to struggle down two flights of stairs to use the toilet have a wash clean my teeth and have a shower which I was not told about and I was not told I had to check in at a different hotel when I went to complain the staff were friendly enough and said they would pass the complaint onto the owners.i also asked them about the breakfast I had paid for as there was no eating area in the dump they had put me in I was told I had to come to that hotel for the breakfast.

    I do not recommend anyone booking Morawel, Aberystwyth as you might end up sleeping on the Beach.

    Did not get the chance as they foibles booked us and apparently lost our booking, not even an apology after we travelled nearly 170 miles. I'm absolutely disgusted with their attitude, especially as said we travelled a long, lucky we managed to get somewhere else, but we could have been stranded. They also double booked the people trying to check in before us! I'm dubious about trusting booking.com again.
