    Perhaps the bed could use a mattress topper as it was too firm for my preferences, but not uncomfortable.

    The host Jo is amazing, very welcoming. Makes sure that you can ask for anything you need and asks for preferences at breakfast, which was an epic delicious full English. The location is perfect and it's close to really good restaurants (Amores) as well as Zip World. The rooms and common areas are a beautiful blend of vintage and modern done to a high spec which were extremely clean. There is also a lovely little gift shop downstairs run by the host with fantastic gift items.

    There's nothing we disliked about our stay - it was 100%.

    Our search for hotels in Aberdare led us to this charming B&B, and we couldn't be happier with our choice. Despite getting lost on our way to the property (entirely our fault), Jo, our host, was incredibly understanding, even when we arrived four hours later than expected! The photos on Booking.com don't do No. 30 justice—the rooms are far more spacious and beautiful in person. Our bedroom was incredibly large, featuring an incredibly comfortable double bed (the best we've ever slept in away from home), a TV with logged-in streaming services like Netflix, and a lovely en-suite bathroom with a mix of modern fixtures and quaint, old-style touches. The dining room was both spacious and beautifully decorated, with antique accents adding warmth and character to the space. Breakfast at No. 30 was truly exceptional. Jo asked us our preferred food choices and breakfast time, and for both mornings of our stay, we enjoyed a freshly-cooked full English breakfast, complete with thick-sliced toast, real butter, and endless tea, coffee, and orange juice. We would undoubtedly stay at No. 30 again when we return to Aberdare. So give those hotels a miss and try and No. 30 - you won't regret it. A well-deserved ten out of ten!

    everything was just great. we had an amazing cooked breakfast that filled us up for the day. we were just a short walk from the train and bus stations so we were able to get around easily. it was a lovely relaxed house and Jo and Paul were very friendly and helpful. the bed was the most comfortable bed you can imagine so we had a great night's sleep every night and the large walk-in shower was perfect.

    Number 30 was perfect for our four waterfall trip—just 20 minutes away, and 20 minutes from Zip World Tower! Couldn't have picked a better place. Jo and Paul were amazing hosts; nothing was too much trouble, from letting us check in early to lending us a rucksack since we forgot ours. Jo's little shop downstairs has awesome stuff—check it out! It's in a great spot in town, near bars and restaurants. Highly recommend it! Thanks, Jo, for the perfectly cooked eggs!

Jo and Paul were excellent hosts - nothing was too much to ask! We really enjoyed chatting to Jo during our breakfasts each morning.

    An option of fruit/cereal offered would have been nice but we were very satisfied with what we had. This is a suggestion not a critism.

    Excellent . Local produce and good quality. Good quantity filled us up for most of the day.

    I liked everything.

    Jo was very welcoming and helpful. I loved the decor and atmosphere . The breakfast was superb and bed comfortable. I slept very well. The location is very central and quite near the railway station. Jo also runs a interesting shop underneath the bed and breakfast. She has an intriguing selection of stock. Quite quirky and lovely for presents. I really enjoyed my stay. Excellent!!

    Had a wonderful time. Breakfast was incredible. The hosts were lovely, helpful and very accommodating. We went to do the penderyn distillery tour which is a short taxi ride away. B and B itself in the centre of Aberdare where we spent two enjoyable evenings, wonderful Italian amd Indian meals and nice selection of pubs with friendly locals. Will be back again.
