This is a great location for the town. We have walked for eats and drinks with ease to all amenities. Parking is very tight, okay if you have a small car, but otherwise it's snug. The apartment is lovely, simple and warm, clean enough. Only 1 bath sheet is provided and it could have provided tea towels. I read the word luxury in this listing, it's perhaps subjective. There is no welcome pack, but tea bags and UHT single serve cartons. The bedrooms are comfy as are the beds. Key pick up is not straight forward. Cottages.com couldn't answer some amenities questions and advised me to call the host direct, who coincidentally said to come to his hotel for the keys, otherwise not sure how this information would have been relayed. If you like a lot of ice, bring your own ice trays, otherwise most items are well provided.

The property is first class and close enough to the town centre. I would suggest that the cooking utensils could be up graded but that is a minor criticism.

Cottages.com were very friendly and efficient when we rang them to confirm a few things. The apartment itself is in a fantastic location, just a block from the seaside and pier, and a few minutes from Aberystwyth's main shopping street. The apartment was spotlessly clean on arrival, and the rooms spacious and comfortable. We are looking forward to returning soon.
