Pros:

Friendly staff. Nice English breakfast. Quiet location

Cons:

Bit difficult to find using SatNav. It kept sending me back over the Menai Bridge. So watch out for that. Everything very clean except light switches in room and visible pipework in bathroom. Just some small cosmetic repair work also needed here and there.

Pros:

Beds comfy

Cons:

When we arrived we booked for 2 double rooms were given 1 double room and a twin room as they had sold all but 1 double, despite us booking 2.
Quite dated especially the bathrooms one of the rooms had a large black patch on the floor in the bathroom the other had torn carpet next to the bed.
Was very dimly lit even with all the lights on.

Excellent and above for the price point
Pros:

This place is just brilliant for me. I travel to North Wales to do a little walking on a bi monthly basis and always stay here. Value for money is exceptional, it's in a lovely quiet surrounding, the staff are amazing helpful and friendly, the rooms are comfortable and for the price point excellent, some are a little tired but for me this is fine as the price reflects this and they are warm, spacious, clean and comfortable.

The restaurant there is pleasant, and a good range of meals and drinks are available, great to have a bite to eat and I read a book there sometimes, glass of port too.

Breakfast set you up for the day, not stoggy likes some places the fried breakfast has lovely eggs, bacon, sausage, tomatoes, mushrooms, beans and hash brown, cereal is available toast, fruit juice and coffee.

All in all this makes a lovely place to stay whilst visiting North Wales and Angelsey.

May they continue to be as they are.

Cons:

For the price point there is nothing I would change.

Our stay proved fit for purpose on this occasion.
Pros:

The evening meal was excellent. Fruit, yoghurt and a selection of cereals would have been appreciated. The location is excellent however the rooms and hallways require a refurbishment and update.
The staff were an asset to the organisation being so welcoming and polite. Excellent parking facility.

Cons:

Bedroom and hallways needed replacement of carpets and walls redecorated. Bedroom very cold and couldn’t turn radiator on.
