Great location for centre of Barmouth
Pros:

Close to what we needed for race day.

Cons:

Very loud at night with the music from the bar and outside as windows are very thin. Closed windows but didn’t make a difference from when they were open. Room was warm but was a fan in the room, wouldn’t have liked to stay in heat of the summer.

Great hotel for the location and value for money.
Pros:

Great location in the centre of this small pretty town. The room we stayed in (Room 1) was lovely and large, with a bay window overlooking the front on the hotel. It was nicely decorated and the furniture was of a high standard. The bed was nice and comfy with clean linen and white fluffy thick towels. Plenty of good quality tea, coffee and biscuits. Large TV, mini fridge and fan were great bonuses.

Cons:

The shower and pressure of water was very disappointing and the walls in the bathroom need some updating and cleaning because of the damp and mold. The shower needs bleaching.

Underneath the bed needs a good hoovering! Sorry, just being honest.

Location was great. Bed was very comfy

Cons:

Room was very noisy - air conditioning unit on the wall outside the room was on all night and made it very difficult to sleep. Window wouldn’t close either which didn’t help. Bathroom wasn’t very nice. Low water pressure

Avoid over priced
Pros:

Staff where friendly location is perfect!

Cons:

Awful avoid ! Very dated mould in bathroom loose tiles, left a day early couldn’t stay much more it’s a room above a very busy pub with karaoke on weekend was ridiculously loud in room to the point the telly was on max and still couldn’t hear it was a nightmare! Didn’t bother going down for breakfast as felt it was Minty , far to overpriced for the facilities wouldn’t stay again was looking for a peaceful bank holiday weekend and it wasn’t the place to stay , the one plus is the staff seem friendly and once being able to settle and sleep the beds are comfy but that’s all, needs a full renovation
