Fab Sunday lunch
Pros:

Popped to the Aberavon Beach Hotel on the way home from a trip and what a treat. First class Sunday lunch and excellent Service. The manager Sheldon was very professional and obviously knows what he is doing. Great value in current times at £17.95 for 2 courses. Will definitely be going back even though we live in Swansea

Overall we loved it, our stay was due to house hunting so we will most definately be back
Pros:

The internal refurbishment of the public areas is lovely and very well done - the chairs and sofas in the bar were really comfy, as was the bed. Once inside the building, it was a great experience.
Good size car park, easy to register the car as a guest. Loved the free drink for reusuing our towels

Cons:

The outside of the building is very scruffy, dated and looks almost derelict. The bedroom window was a bit iffy, and the wind blowing through the corridors and under our room door caused the bathroom door to fly open several times.
A larger selection of draft lagers would be welcomed, may include Cruzcapo or Kronenberg as currently very popular

We had a lovely cozy night here. Excellent and will be back.
Pros:

It was such a great room with a view of the sea,
The reason we booked in the first place was to have a night away by the sea
