Starling Cloud, Aberystwyth by Marston’s Inns

10/10 Excellent
"This is where we always stay in Aberystwyth. It is conveniently located on the edge of town with plenty of free parking. A flat 10-15 minute walk takes you right into the centre. The hotel reception is located in the pub next door, where there is a good choice of food. Secure access to the lodge is by key card. Unfortunately there is not a lift in the lodge, but it is only 2 floors. Our room was clean, comfortable and well equipped as was the bathroom. Working A/C was a bonus with our changeable weather. We have never been aware of any noise during our stays here, apart from maybe the odd door closing."

"We were given a warm welcome. At check in I discovered we both had rooms on the fourth floor. When I explained my health issues, she very kindly managed to move me to the second floor. Unfortunately the lift was not working, which is why the issue occurred. We were very pleased with our rooms. Breakfast was excellent. For the very reasonable price, this hotel was well worth staying at. If the lift issue is resolved, we would happily return."
