excellent locationamazing staffchilled atmospheredead fliesbathroom binloud noises
the location is excellent. i was taken by the view of the lake and mountains upon opening the curtains. the staff were amazing and everything was very chilled. the location proved to be the best for climbing cadair idris.
the room was full of dead flies. spiders and webs were also present! the rubbish was left from the previous guests in the bathroom bin. the radiator made loud noises when the heater was on during the night.
