Very nicely decorated and well heated, clean, reception staff Dillon & Nick exceptionally welcoming ( learnt a bit of Welsh and got recommendations where to eat etc). Other guests respectful of personal space whilst being friwndly, tricky as the toilets, bathrooms, kitchen, dining area and drawing room- are all shared. Very refreshing experience for someone like me whi is used to private space. The rooms have bunk beds , built in, from wood , with pleasantly designed curtains, so one can block off light and get privacy in the room share , even from one's iwn family

Amazing location close to restaurants and beautiful walks close by. The buses to Snowdonia are within a 5 minute walk of the hostel as well which was great! The common areas were spacious, a large kitchen to use, showers had hot water and the beds were wooden so there was no squeaking. The staff were lovely and gave us advice for our trip - would stay here again next time we’re back!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    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.
