Very Good
Pros:

Staff were very friendly, nothing was to much trouble. Food was excellent. Location ideal.

Cons:

We were in room 211. The bed/mattress in that room is getting a little tired and "wobbles" side to side as you turn over in bed.

Beautiful hotel in a great location to explore Snowdonia
Pros:

Our twin room was very comfortable. We had a problem with the safe that the staff resolved very quickly for us. Staff were very helpful, parking was easy and we enjoyed a great dinner in the bar and breakfast in the restaurant.

Great location, friendly staff, food OK.
Pros:

Location was great and the staff very welcoming. We opted for a suite that was very nice but a small issue with poor lighting (dim) and a few cobwebs in bathroom and also dirty windows that could be improved but really didn’t spoil our stay.

Cons:

Needs a good clean to make it really really good. Stairs only to our room but OK as hotel has character.

Not a four star hotel
Pros:

Location

Cons:

My heart sank when I saw the carpet and wallpaper on the way to our room. They were very old, well worn and smelt stale but our room was better. It is a three star hotel at best.
