The booking site stated it was B&B but in fact it was a table with breakfast goods on it.

Ferry port friendly
One night stay on way to ferry port. Very convenient and makes more sense than catching the 0240 option. Got a good nights sleep before continuing journey.

Terrible
Terrible beds, dated decor, broken loo seat. No sleep due to thin walls and a loudly snoring neighbour! However, we had a partial sea view, the host was genial and we had a lovely evening a short drive away in Trearddur Bay!

2 night getaway
Arrived at 3.50 pm to a hotel locked with a notice stating open at 4.00 pm. Hotel on line says 3.00pm book in. Notified at check in that food is no longer available onsite apart from continental breakfast. Talking to another guest we were told that the owners were considering about selling the hotel. Room was acceptable and clean apart from a few slight carpet stains

The hotel was clean and comfortable, the Continental breakfast was adequate. Out of 25 rooms, only about 3 were occupied, there was no restaurant service, and it felt as if the hotel was "winding down".

Accommodating host
We were delayed due to car trouble well beyond the check-in timeframe. The hotelier was understanding and supportive resulting in a swift check-in and well needed night’s sleep.

The gentleman in charge was lovely, however it was disappointing to discover the breakfast was only cereal, pre-packed pastries and yoghurt to eat in your room, and the quality of the tea was very poor. A hotel with so much potential, but sadly fading.

The room was a really good size with all the amenities you need, bed was really comfortable so I got a good night's sleep, bath room spotless with a very powerful shower all in all fault less. The restaurant was closed and the bar only opened for limited hours when these are fully opened and they are to the same standard as the room I will give this A5 star rating

Damp, dated room, absolutely freezing, no free wifi, no food for dinner, will give you some cornflakes for breakfast from the table at bottom of stairs. I left at 4:30am even though alarm was set for 6:30 just to go away and get some food and be away from it. Could literally hear a

Ordered a triple room but got a double bed and a single which meant sharing a bed!
Breakfast is cereal and packet pastries that you help yourself to and take back to your room.
Room was clean but tired.
Staff were really nice.

Lovely friendly experience, we were made to feel very welcome. Room was spacious, beds were ok, room was a bit dated overall.
Grab and go breakfast was adequate and easy to get to, with fresh milk and a microwave if needed.
Bar was nice and cosy and closes at 9pm.

I don't want to do it down as the room was brilliant and a really comfortable bed. The hotel is up for sale, all the staff were made redundant last October. There is no kitchen therefore no meals. The breakfast was 'grab and go', cereal, cakes, yoghurt, no option for diabetics.

One night in Anglesey
Easy to find with a large parking. Calm room despite in front of the main road but it's far away to be the highway. Clean and spacious room with alll amenities. Great and warm shower. Breakfast consists in a single take away buffet and a fridge with milk and juices, with very few choices, in a tiny room. So don't expect a traditionnal cooked british breakfast.
