On a first visit to Aberystwyth & wanting to stay in the Town Centre, found a dearth of reasonably priced accommodation so selected Harrys based on TA reviews. Premises are 4 adjoining Victorian/Edwardian 3 storey terraced properties, with a ground floor Restaurant/Bar, close to the main shopping area & Promenade, so well situated. There is no lift, so having some mobility issues glad to get a room on the 1st floor, though still only reached by 2 flights of stairs. Our room was billed as "deluxe", and although a decent size, was equipped with furnishings that must have been at least 30/40 years old; the wardrobe even had a broken mirror. However the bathroom had been renovated & had a decent walk-in shower. Sadly the decor could do with an upgrade, stains on the bathroom painted walls, cracks in ceiling/wall junctions(see photos) & worst of all the toilet door wouldn't close. To their credit the Hotel management, had the door repaired on our second day, after we told them about it. Also the "settee" at the foot of the bed was past its sell by date & the flat screen tv must have been at least 10 years old, with poor sound. All in all, if this was a deluxe room, heaven knows what the standard rooms were like. However the room was clean & well serviced & the bed comfortable. Only had breakfast here, no complaints, good variety available, in a nice dining area, with good service. Hotel is situated in a one way system, with restricted parking outside, but has it's own small car park at the rear. Overall, staff were friendly & helpful; provided good service & the accommodation served our needs.
