    It was cheap to stay but I chose it because there was no other option nearby while doing the Snowdonia Way. The owner, Brian was nice and helpful and the dog Blue and the cats were lovely. The shared bathrooms are newly renovated and clean.

    Owners were very accommodating and helpful, and flexible with out specific requirements as well. The facilities were impressive, with a large and fully fitted kitchen, well maintained and all toilets and showers were clean and spacious. The setting was incredible also, we only stayed for one night, however will be returning. This hostel would make a perfect base for exploring the surrounding area. And the building itself is memorable and unique, truly one of the best hostels you could visit.
