It was adequate, attractive, and affordable, and well located by the beach. For those reasons, I would stay there again.
Pros:

The location by the beach is excellent because I love the sea air and aberavon beach.
The hotel lobby is quite lovely and well

Cons:

More attention to be paid to buffet breakfast
And unfortunately, Port helmet got hit by heat wave so the small window and the fan provided or insufficient to cool the room off

Great hotel right beside a beautiful beach.
Pros:

The room was very clean and quiet. Full Welsh Breakfast was VERY full, there was a great choice of fresh and tinned fruits, yoghurts, cereals, croissants,, and the hot buffet was bacon, sausage, fried or scrambled eggs, baked beans, mushrooms, hash browns and of course white or brown toast. unlimited tea and coffee too. (good coffee, by the way).

Cons:

There appeared to be a serious shortage of staff. Having said that, the staff who were there worked very hard to accommodate every request made of them.
