Return Visit Satisfies

warm welcomebeautiful viewcomfortable bedexpensive pint
Sarah welcomed me warmly. The location provides beautiful views. The bed was comfortable. I found all staff very friendly. Food provided was lovely. We enjoyed our stay and plan a return to this hotel. I really enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere and friendly staff.
My last pint of Madri cost me a lot. There were no lemon to put in my gin. They did not sell bar snacks. It would be better with some snacks to choice from.

direct doorfriendly teamgood mealsmissing croutonsinsulting amountoffered price
The location allows for walks directly from the door to various destinations (I went to Dolgellau). The room featured good all-round value for money. A friendly team served good meals for breakfast.
My salad came without croutons. This was disappointing because this part was a major appeal (i was like i was missing out). I mentioned it to the waiter and was offered £2 off the price, which I felt was an insulting amount. I had to eat the salad as it came.
