Disappointed stay, room really not...

Great location and very good...

Liked: The place is in a great location, bang opposite the start point for the Miners and Pyg tracks to the Snowdon summit. The rooms are clean and ours was fairly spacious. They're as practical, as you'd expect from a YHA and the staff were very good, friendly and helpful.
Disliked: The parking was a bit of a faff - there's a car park opposite but it's expensive and books up quickly. There's also one down the road (Nant Peris) where you can park for £5 and take a bus up to the hostel, but you can't park overnight there, which is a problem. There's a longer stay just park car park behind it but it took some time to find out about that one. All in all a great place to stay though, regardless.

Very good

Liked: At the feet of Mount Snowdon.
Disliked: The parking nearby costs £40. The kitchen is located in an adjacent building, not in the same building.

Not at all good for...

Liked: There is no parking available, private parking £40 per night. Nearby parking very far and no bus other way to reach at night. It’s rundown property and not good for families.
Disliked: The location
