Stay well away, dirty needs updating. Food terrible, didn’t bother having breakfast, Put off with the way the place was run, Staff didn’t seem to care, Was asked if we would like to stay in The Cottage, Walked in and straight back out again, Also needs updating Badly. Food left in drawer from a recent quest, The Landlord removed the food and put it in his own fridge, his words were they ain’t out of date, Will definitely not be returning…

There are pros and cons to booking somewhere last minute; just getting away was our priority for a weekend in August and wanting to be near-ish to Bala, there weren't many late options. And it may be that we also had the last room at the New Inn.... On the positive side: easy to find, safe parking, friendly staff*, a good village pub with fine beer an ok-menu. Plus, the bed was exceptionally comfortable and (after hours; there's noise from the pub, fair enough) the peace was superb. Good two nights' sleep for sure. On the negative: Room 2 is tired, worn out even, in dire need of some very simple upgrades. There was one bedside lamp, not two. A slightly 'damp' smell, which can be fixed with regular opening of windows and a spot of 'Glade'. There was a kettle, but we had to ask for mugs and some milk to go with the tea bags, which might have been there for a while. And RM2 has the smallest of en suite bathrooms, where you could have hot water or water pressure in the shower, but not both at the same time. This too had visible evidence a lack of airing, eg the mould. Mrs H said words to the effect that they may have forgotten we were coming or, it was like visiting the aunt who knew you were coming sometime, wasn't sure which weekend, and was then surprised that you'd brought your girlfriend with you and hadn't prepared the double room. All of which to say that this could be so much better - and perhaps the other rooms are already. At £70 a night, we didn't expect very much, but were still left a bit disappointed. And I guess this is the dilemma - I'd have gladly paid another £30 a night for this location (even the same room) if it were modernised. But that might not be enough short-term to cover the costs of that modernisation. To be honest, it didn't look imminent. (*ps - and we suspect that when we asked for the B+B wifi password, rather than the pub's version, fibs were told. Pub wifi was very good, room wifi was almost non-existent, despite the presence of a booster in the room, right on the bedside table. Now, because we have the same set up in our own home, I knew which of the strong BT signals on my mobile wifi related to that booster in the room. And it wasn't the pub one. If you're going to say there's no wifi in the rooms, please remove the evidence to the contrary. Diolch).

Very poor and dirty accommodation . Facilities lacking. Proprietor disinterested. He obviously had laundry professionally laundered so towels and bed linen were clean. Pub basic, food basic but acceptable for the price. Bar manageress friendly and efficient. If she wasn’t on forget it. Plates left on dirty tables, inside and out of the pub for ages. Such a shame.

Came here for a meal at lunchtime. The manager was very friendly and our order came fairly quickly although it was slightly confused, Chips were replaced by a baked potato as originally ordered. It was cold in the centre, The other meals were fine. We sat outside with soaking cigarette butts in ashtrays on each table. The table umbrellas were lying under a hedge. A large table tennis table was propped up against a post near where we were seated. It has the feeling of a place that has given up on normal standards.

Loved this place! Had a meal for the 3 of us plus our dog. Great meal and lovley pint! Very freindly and helpful staff and feel part of the community! So much so we are holidaying here this Christmas 2023!

Booked in for an over night stay between jobs. Stayed in room 1 where I am greeted with a broken mirror and a broken tv in a dated room. The bedding was clean however the bed cried out with every movement reminiscent of the days you were trying to be quiet because her parents are downstairs... Single glazed windows mean I heard every vehicle and gust of wind that went past the property.. that was after the jukebox downstairs stoped screaming an eclectic selection of tracks from pet shop boys to hardcore dance anthems... As this is a room above a pub you will hear every conversation and game of pool until the locals leave. WiFi.... If your lucky, Router on bar, room 1 gets one bar of usable WiFi if your sat on the toilet.. and theres NO mobile service as you are at the bottom of a valley so communication to the outside world is impossible. Speaking of the toilet... theres a door next to it that leads back onto the landing and is secured with nothing but a little door latch, so don't leave anything valuable in the room, one push and its broken. No food available when I stayed so it was an hour round trip to Bala Co-op to find something to eat. At £70 a night my short review is, Dated, dirty, noisy room. Not worth the cost... in fact i should be paid to stay there.
