    Shower could have been better. I couldn't stop it dripping. In the end I worked out that if I laid the shower head on the shower tray, it would stop the sound of persistent drips .

    Breakfast fab. Good quality, everything cooked perfectly. Hosts welcoming and helpful with great local knowledge. Chris a talented photographer with mounted photos that made superb souvenirs. Room comfortable and spotless. Location excellent.

    Nothing really.

    Great location, just off the main road so quiet but only a minute or two to the shops and restaurants. Breakfast was very nice and everything cooked just right. Staff are very kind and friendly, plus Chris has excellent information and knowledge of the area. Nice Comfy Bed & Pillows.

    Nothing could be better. Of course, price is always an issue but I think we were charged a fair price for the accomodation and services provided.

    Excellent central position in the village with off road parking. The staff were very friendly, helpful, polite and professional. You could not find a better place. Staff also very knowledgeable about the area. The property is full of character and an excellent breakfast was served in a lovely breakfast room. Congratulations to the owners for running such an excellent business.

    I absolutely loved my stay! My hosts were so kind and welcoming. They truly make you have an extraordinary experience. I really appreciated all the advice and recommendations. The room was lovely and the bed was so comfy I feel asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow. The breakfast was cooked to perfection and there were more than enough choices! I really can't wait to come again, I would definitely recommend staying here it's gorgeous.

    It was spot on for the two nights I needed whilst attending a course so there was nothing to dislike.

    The warmest of welcomes set the scene. My room was beautifully clean and cosy, there are many thoughtful little touches, tasty breakfasts and a great, central but quiet location. (WiFi was available, I just didn't use it so cannot grade it!) I'd happily recommend and would like to return. Thank you to Julie and Chris.

    The hosts are incredibly friendly and helpful, very hands-on. Great breakfast selection (even for vegetarians/vegans). The guest house is cozy and comfy and makes you feel right at home. Location is fantastic, just off the main road, barely five minutes from the train/bus station but still quiet.

    Garth Dderwen is a lovely Victorian house in Betws y coed. Everything is tidy and cared for and attention is paid to every small detail. Federica and I really enjoyed our stay there. Julie and Chris are great hosts and provided us with a lot of tips and information about walks, places to go for eating out and gave advice on alternative itineraries when the weather was not good. The special option on the Breakfast menu of the weekend was a lovely surprise that I have really appreciated. I do really hope to come back in the future.

    I was in the smaller box room, had everything you needed but a little bit cramped, better value as a result though

    Great location on the A5 for getting into Snowdonia, lovely hosts with plenty of local knowledge for walking and other stuff
