Fantastic location, great staff but I expected a better room
Pros:

Staff was fantastic

Cons:

It was expensive. They gave me different toom to which I had paid for and it was like a hall. Thanks to staff who changed it eventually but that room's lock was broken.
They said they changed the room initially as I indicated my child wants pet-free space. But, they should have contacted and offered me different option instead of putting us in a hall.
I had better expectations after spending that much money

Great location and easy to access. Could have been over cost-effective/ cleanliness
Pros:

Our overall stay was fine, easy to locate when travelling by bus. Good location for day hikes around the area.

Cons:

The breakfast price should have been included in the total cost and not having an additional charge. Wish there was a more amenities in the room such a a small fridge or microwave would have been very handy. There were visible stains on the carpet and brownish/green grime in the shower. Felt like the shower and toilet was not cleaned properly.

Pros:

The staff is the friendliest staff I've come across. Really helpful throughout our stay. David is such a kind and approachable person with immense knowledge of Llanberis
The place itself is super lively with a sports bar in the building and a restaurant that is usually busy. The whole place is dog friendly.
The location can't get better than this, especially if you are going there to hike to Snowdonia. Definitely recommended!

Cons:

The room was a bit cold the first night but upon informing the staff, this was promptly fixed the second day. So nothing that we didn't like in general.
