Good location with plenty of available parking on street outside - and if not, then the church carpark is very nearby. Lovely view of the sea and castle. Well equipped with easy check-in and soooooo quiet overnight! A good, firm mattress made for a good night's sleep and how nice to have Netflix. Incredible value as compared to hotel rooms locally and you get an entire self-contained studio. We had originally booked this for our son and got ourselves a place advertised as a 'studio apartment' nearby which turned out to be just a small bedroom so swapped with our son to take this place - and glad we did.

The building is a little run-down and as others have said, is furnished and decorated in a pretty basic way but it has everything you would need, is quiet and comfortable and at this price point I'm not sure you can complain.

I had the ground-floor family apartment for a night. It was very comfortable and spacious, perfect for taking my bike inside. Even though it was at street level, it was very quiet. The location is ideal for anyone wanting to visit Aberystwyth, the view of the castle in the morning is wonderful!

we had a great time and will try to go back to Bryn Awel

there was only one plate, which we had to share (there were two of us) I personally would have liked a toaster

Nice and spacious self contained studio apartment. Fabulous bed that was homemade by the owner. Lots of nice little touches like shower gels and condiments which are handy if you didn't bring your own. Handy little fridge. Great location overlooking the castle with a view of the sea.

It's obvious that the the whole building and rooms are a 'work-in-progress' so if you're expecting a pristine establishment you'll be a little disappointed. There are a couple of issues that I think are easy fixes. I appreciate that the building is close to the sea but it would be nice if the windows could be cleaned outside to improve the view. The tv works, intermittently, on the internet so maybe fit an indoor aerial? The mirror in the bathroom is ledged on the toilet so is useless unless you kneel down. Needs fixing above the sink. The taps in the bathroom have the wrong tops. The 'c' is on the hot tap.

Location, convenience for a young family

Room was big and clean, good value for money considering the great location and kitchen area. Bed nice and comfy, lovely views of the sea and castle grounds.

Shower pressure wasn't the best, and the kitchen was missing a washing up sponge so had to go out and get one, but it wasn't a big deal, still a great stay

Location, comfortable bed

Tired, lacking utensils, no bread knife, no small plates, very eclectic fixtures and fittings. Needs a revamp.

The main reason we booked this apartment was its location and the view.We weren’t disappointed at all.Be able to fall to sleep listening to the waves breaking was a treat.

There was no fridge in the apartment.The living room door was kept open with a chair as it closes itself (old building quirkiness) but maybe a smaller door stopper would be better as we kept walking into this chair.
