Travelled with family and small children, Travelled with pets
Our room was nice, clean and bright with a large window facing the road.
Staff were very friendly and helpful during our stay.
However check in was late at 5pm with an early checkout at 10am. No breakfast or lunch option due to being out of season and no fridge to store any food over night.
Great for walks but anything else you need to travel out by car.
First room I had, had an issue with the door, staff immediately swapped my room! Staff were very kind and helpful, room had both a fan and electric heater which was perfect. Great food, nice pint selection. Excellent location.

Liked: Cleanliness
The room was quite basic and the cold air was wafting the curtain in the room. The portable heater was not working but they managed to find a working one for us. The warm tap took ages to warm up so we decided not to use the shower. I had an email off them telling me when they were serving food but they did not serve any food when we were there so that was disappointing.
Great little hotel, ran by and for the community, felt very welcome in the bar in the evenings as a solo traveller.

Overnight stay
We stayed at the hotel last weekend. It’s pub with accommodation above. Seems to be a hub of the local community. Location is good if you are happy to drive to destinations. Would have liked it to be slightly more informative when we arrived like how to check out, dinner, where to
get water etc. I could see they are working to improve the hotel annd it looks like the dining room has recently been refurbished nicely. Room was clean, fresh sheets, towels, clean bathroom. But I would say the room could do with some TLC as some things were missed such as controller broken, body wash and soap could have been filled up and had to be taken out to be used and vents cleared and window opened to freshen up the air. Food was good and filling.

Very friendly and helpful staff. This is a community run hotel and bar and it is very clear they truly love the place.
Shocking, couldn’t believe what I was seeing 👀 has housekeeping been done? Has this place been maintained? I doubt it very much, could not get out fast enough 🏃♂️🏃♀️🏃, I could not recommend 👎
The room felt safe overall, but there were a few issues. The window couldn’t open, making it a bit hot, and the curtains didn’t block any light—expect to wake up early with the sun. Noise from the busy pub below lasted until around 10pm. The lower bed had very little headroom, even when just sitting up.

Could have been better
Bedside light didn't work because their was no wall socket to plug it in on one side of the bed. The other side was fine. The shower was noisy and the water would go from very cold to too hot and back again. The shower room was a bit shabby .The breakfast was not much for the price. I also had to tune the TV in to watch BBC. The bed was comfortable but to low . The Good News, What staff we did see where a credit and very pleasant.
Very quaint and delightful hotel with a fantastic pub, staffed by some genuinely lovely people. The rooms were spacious, beds and pillows were extremely comfortable and it was a great atmosphere. Thoroughly enjoyed it, will definitely recommend to friends.
comfortable, clean, nice views around, amazing location, just down from the hotel there is a Snowdonia slate trail. Also the pub the hotel has delicious local beers which are great to enjoy after hiking all day long. The hotel has a long history dating back to 14th century
