1.0 / 5.0
good food and friendly atmosphere
The room, the bed, the shower. Not a clean room with debris left in both bathroom and under the beds and on the windowsill. probably had not seen a vacuum cleaner for a while, the mattresses were well past their use by date and to be honest a bit smelly. the shower was comical I was able to shower but it was not clean and the shower curtain was completely inappropriate for that particular shower
4.5 / 5.0
Location was good, central in Llanberis. Bed comfortable and room excellent for the money.
The only possible criticism is that the shower didnt work well. It wouldnt stay at constant temp but thats a minor complaint really.
2.5 / 5.0
the location is great, close to Snowdon and Llanberis has a plenty of hiking/camping related shops and is very nice; the mattress was ok
No bedding, which for this price you would expect in my opinion, would have been nice to have soap in the bathroom
3.5 / 5.0
Very good location, just down the road from Llanberis pass and Snowdon Railway.
If you're minimalist and just need a roof over your head it's a bunkhouse with basic amenities to a satisfactory standard.
While functional some things looked old or worn.

Can walk up Snowdon from here
Room was freezing with no heating on and cold shower!
Light barely worked so we couldn’t see what we were doing.
Mattresses awfully uncomfortable.
Whole building in a bad state of repair.
Couldn’t get any dinner on a Saturday night at 20:30, we were not made aware of this on check in.
Staff couldn’t care less when we complained.

1.0 / 5.0
The location to the town centre
The cistern falling off the wall, the mould on the shower curtain in the bathroom. The very old, doubled up mattresses on the flimsy bunks. The stained, pungent carpet didn’t add any bonuses when taking the mattress off the bed because we didn’t trust the top bunk.
2.0 / 5.0
The food was quite nice but a limited menu to be honest. Water was hot
Bed was broken and uncomfortable. Their were no curtains on the windows, the toilet seat was broken. Carrying cases up and down the narrow stairs was very difficult
3.0 / 5.0
I was expecting to have all the bed facilities. But there wasn't a pillow and duvet. No soap, shampoo or a towel. Only a mattress with its cover. But it was clean and rent was cheap accordingly.

location, clean.
3.5 / 5.0
I liked the room, didn’t feel too crowded and it was nice to have ensuite facilities. I also liked the bar downstairs for an quick meal.
the shower drain was clogged and the toilet didn’t flush properly, I still enjoyed having the facilities in the room :) . the bed sheet was also dirty as if it hadn’t been changed between visitors. the staff also weren’t very friendly but maybe I caught them on a bad day.

Location
The bare bones nature - no kitchen, no bedding, no towels - really doesn't justify the price. Two sockets for four guests really isn't great, no reading lights on the bed (as there is no common room or similar, no desk or chair, this is where guests will need to be). This very stripped-down standard of accommodation would be just about acceptable for walkers if it were reflected in the price.

How cheap it was
Staff implied there was no food left on my arrival due to a marathon that was on that day....he was very hesitant to even entertain the idea of feeding me and I couldn't get food anywhere at 7pm in the evening...

4.0 / 5.0
Very nice location, clean. Noisy but nothing that earplugs can’t fix. Nice staff. Exactly as advertised : simple bunkhouse.
0.5 / 5.0
When we arrived there was a barrier at the car park so we couldn't enter.
When I went inside to check in there was no clear information where to go I had to ask 2 staff people and then wait for the manager for like 5 min.
And I felt like I was interfering with something he was doing instead of him being pleased I am a guest. He was cold and unpleasant.
Bunk beds were metal frames that I was thinking might get broken just by getting on top and every time anyone moved you could hear the noise.
Mattresses were cheap and very uncomfortable for a price of £34 per person and in the room was 6 bunk beds with no breakfast no facilities to have your own breakfast this room was at full capacity getting the place at least £204 which in my opinion was a joke.
There was not enough space to keep anything for 6 people, one hook in the toilet for a towel and one hook on the outside of the door. Shower had no door so water was everywhere on the floor because there was no mat. There was a small wardrobe with maybe 10 hangers.
3.5 / 5.0
location was spot on, great pub & great food
toilet seat wasn’t really attached and the shower was either scalding hot or freezing cold nothing in the middle.
