Cons:

The fact that you could NOT get fresh air as the small window did not open - a possible health issue - we had wedge the door open periodically.
Unpleasant smell in the room.
Only one bedside light.
Parking was an issue.

The place with great potential, needs some improvements.
Pros:

The staff was extremely friendly, sociable, and very helpful. The location is excellent, right next to the castle! We really enjoyed the bar as well as the renovated room with a nice and clean bathroom, all in a modern standard.

Cons:

The room would benefit from better ventilation, as the window could not be opened. The bedsheet felt slightly damp and there was a faint musty smell. The bed was not very comfortable, particularly for an adult. Cleaning could also be improved, as some dust was noticeable.

Brilliant rooms, good bar and great staff
Pros:

Rooms were excellent, clean, spacious and staff very welcoming.

Cons:

No car park and then had to walk up the hill, if you’ve got people struggling with fitness or luggage, drop them off and then park up after.

Staying at Harlech House was great. It's clean, spacious and the perfect basic base for exploring North Wales and Sn
Pros:

The rooms were clean. Spacious. Comfortable. A beautiful location, so close to one of the best beaches in NW.

Cons:

I feel a microwave for basic cooking would be a huge advantage. And also some food in the bar below would be a huge draw for this as an all round base destination for outdoor lovers.
