Loved this location nestled at the pass of the Welsh Mountains! Everyone was super friendly and accommodating, the food was delish and so easy to get over to Snowdon! Remember to buy your parking ticket in advance. Loved my stay and I look forward to coming back… ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/7ec97e37-2a86-4875-85b4-b2b8988f64a7-1760795662106.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/501c2055-e808-48d9-96b2-5b159004bafc-1760795654994.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/6ee5ad28-88a4-4034-812a-fc15c33f3056-1760795654709.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/6717739b-d6ac-4e1e-8e63-7034f93db565-1760795659379.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Trudie Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Yasir Aug 5, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Excellent stay! ##### Yasir Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Denise Sep 23, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Fantastic location across the road from Snowdon Mountain.

Rooms are clean, cosy, and warm. Shared shower has warm water, but would recommend bringing your own slippers to wear while in shower. Overall a super healing trip with breathtaking views - YHA making the experience comfortable and convenient. ##### Olga Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### susan Feb 6, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Stay again Booked the private ensuit, did the job?

Its so convenient. Its clean. Its got great transport links via the bus system . Its got great food on site, bar , menu and breakfast all great. Bathrooms and communal kitchen all also clean and functional . Great to have. Parking can be a expensive but options to park locally and bus but make sure you check the timetables. Its simple but clean and convenient ##### Ann Stayed 1 night in Feb 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### marites Aug 29, 2022 Its not too bad coz its cheap anyway.. but Im just looking for better quality of accommodation just like the kind where I would normally stay. ##### marites Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### B D Nov 28, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Value for money The room was basic but clen and well equipped enough for the value. We booked to stay one night before climbing Mount Snowdon and my only criticism is our room was above the bar area and it was quite loud due to people drinking and shouting, which made sleeping a bit difficult. ##### B D Stayed 1 night in Nov 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Dec 24, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Stayed here overnight with family while on a road trip. Just wanted something cheap and basic but it turned out to be so much more. Our room was basic with bunk beds and a big bathroom. The room was comfortable and fairly quiet but it is a hostel so is basic and you don’t get towels (but it only costs £2.50 to hire one). The reception area has a bar and you can also buy snacks. The staff are very helpful and friendly. You have to pay for parking across the street as there is none around but it’s only cheap. The best part about this place is waking up to the amazing views. We stuck around the next day to take in the breathtaking area and mountain views. Highly recommend this place if you are looking for something cheap and simple with stunning views. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Dec 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Mr dc barlow Oct 29, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Heating didn’t work ##### Mr dc barlow Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Chloe Aug 5, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities There was no parking and upon arriving at 9pm we thought parking was available accross the road, after speaking with the car parking attendent we found out you had to book a space to park costing £40 for overnight and it wasnt available until 1am, had to park in a layby and get taxis to and from the property. Turned out to be a much more expensive trip than originally planned for. ##### Chloe Stayed 1 night in Jul 2022 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotels in Salt Spring Island](https://www.expedia.ca/Salt-Spring-Island-Hotels.d601381.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [The Riverfront Hotel New Orleans](https://www.expedia.ca/New-Orleans-Hotels-The-Riverfront-Hotel-New-Orleans.h42093.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Kingston](https://www.expedia.ca/Kingston-Hotels.d6057821.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Casino Hotels in Alberta](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Alberta-Casino-Hotel.0-0-d11111-tCasinoHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Niagara Lodge & Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Niagara-Falls-Hotels-Niagara-Lodge-Suites.h41195.Hotel-Information) > > [All Inclusive Resorts and Hotels in Akumal](https://www.expedia.ca/Akumal-Hotels-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d6196-tAllInclusiveHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Motels Kelowna](https://www.expedia.ca/Kelowna-Motels.d3997-aaMotels.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Days Inn & Conference Centre by Wyndham Oromocto](https://www.expedia.ca/Fredericton-Hotels-Days-Inn-Conference-Centre-By-Wyndham-Oromocto.h1304155.Hotel-Information) > > [Catalonia Montego Bay - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Montego-Bay-Hotels-Catalonia-Montego-Bay-All-Inclusive.h25000.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Fort Vermilion](https://www.expedia.ca/Fort-Vermilion-Hotels.d3000439108.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels with Early Check-in in Calgary](https://www.expedia.ca/Calgary-Hotels-Hotel-With-Early-Check-In.0-0-d178245-thotelwithearlycheckin.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [All Inclusive Resorts and Hotels in St. Lucia](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-St-Lucia-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d168-tAllInclusiveHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Princeps Boutique Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Rome-Hotels-Princeps-Boutique-Hotel.h10525216.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel AKA Brickell](https://www.expedia.ca/Miami-Hotels-Hotel-AKA-Brickell.h988764.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Toronto Airport East by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Toronto-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Toronto-Airport-East.h21375.Hotel-Information) > > [The Grove Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Haverfordwest-Hotels-The-Grove-Hotel.h36706330.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Marina del Rey](https://www.expedia.ca/Marina-Del-Rey-Hotels.d10380.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Royal National Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-The-Royal-National-Hotel.h55001.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Far Hills](https://www.expedia.ca/Val-Morin-Hotels-Le-Cedar-Lodge.h37192006.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Venice (VCE)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/vce/toronto-to-venice) > > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to Calgary (YYC)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/yyc/vancouver-to-calgary) > > [Flights from Edmonton (YEG) to Ottawa (YOW)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yeg/yow/edmonton-to-ottawa) > > [Flights from Ottawa (YOW) to Tucson (TUS)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yow/tus/ottawa-to-tucson) ### Cars > [Enterprise at 4304 Kingston Road Scarborough Ontario CAN](https://www.expedia.ca/Enterprise-at-4304-Kingston-Road-Scarborough-Ontario-CAN.v20324.Car-Rental-Guide-Location) > > [Car rentals in Abbotsford](https://www.expedia.ca/Car-Rentals-In-Abbotsford-Intl.d6033860.Car-Rental-Guide) > > [Car rentals in San José](https://www.expedia.ca/Car-Rentals-In-Juan-Santamaria-Intl.d5196371.Car-Rental-Guide) ### Packages > [Maldives](https://www.expedia.ca/Maldives.d109.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [Cancun](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/theme-vacations/all-inclusive-vacations/179995/Cancun) ### General > [Visit Mid Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Miami-Mid-Beach.dx6203154)
