Really enjoyed our stay, thank you so much to the staff for making us feel welcome. Only issue was the nightclub across the road being loud, but closing the window sorted that. Mot, our dog was very happy and spoilt rotten. Would love to come again. Diolch yn fawr

Liked: Staff & service
Busy pub with rooms in the heart of Bala, so was convenient for my needs. Room was ok, however the bed was uncomfortable, poor quality mattress, the toilet seat and bowl were dirty and hadn't been cleaned. Only 1 sachet of decaff coffee, could be more. Rest of the room did the job.

Clean single room, great for a few night's stay. Downside: widows do not open (restricted) and it was hot!!! Thank you for a fan. It would be great I the windows were not restricted and I could create a draft to air out the room. Staff were nice, it's just the wait time. Maybe it was my own fault as it was busy. Another thing - there was nowhere to put the backpack/ luggage. Could you please provide a bench or something? It would be a great addition to the room!
