Lovely. Clean and cosy base to see beautiful Snowdonia. Comfy bed, roomy en-suite and a tasty breakfast.
Duncan is a warm and welcoming host.
The owners couldn't do enough to help, very welcoming, lovely room with a modern bathroom. Excellent location, access to town and local walks. Would stay again.
It is a while since I have stayed in a guest house and it felt somewhat different to a hotel.
I was greeted at the door and taken to my room however there was no offer to help with my bags up the narrow steep stairs. The room was well appointed if a little old fashioned, and comfortable. I wasn't too keen on the owner coming in the room with me though he had to later to look at the radiator.
I was informed on arrival of breakfast time and also that I had to leave by 10.15 'at the latest'
The room was a little chilly but a heater was brought up quickly.
There was no blind on the bathroom window and I had no idea where it looked out so this felt a bit awkward.
The cleanliness was great and the bed very comfortable.
The location was in the town but quiet which was a bonus. Not easy to find a parking spot.
Breakfast was served by a young lady, it arrived promptly and was good.
I was pleased to see a 5 star hygiene rating.
Overall a good experience I would say however I personally am not keen on the rather claustrophobic feel of a guest house as you are staying in the owner's home and it felt like it.
It is a good spot for the town centre and for walking or various activities nearby. I was simply meeting friends a 3 minute walk away.
Liked everything about it.
Staff were very friendly and helpfull,breakfast was very good and the room was comfortable .
Very nice town centre location and parking nearby in the main town car park(free between 4.30pm and 10am)
Very welcoming host and everything for a very enjoyable stay. Would recommend for anybody staying in this beautiful area.
Was even offered a bacon butty to takeaway as i was out too early for breakfast each day, great service!

Welcoming and helpful host
Good breakfast and room
The proprietor Duncan provided a right and proper welcome, helping us get oriented to the locale and answering our questions forthrightly.
Two pet cats added a degree of hominess to the accommodation.
We enjoyed the breakfast which was cooked to order and served by courteous staff.
We thought the room rate was certainly fair and we wouldn't hesitate to book again if we were ever to venture back to Dogellau.
