"Avoid!
I stayed in a single room on the second floor of this pub. The room was very tired/shabby and in desperate need of a deep clean. Old carpet fraying around the edges, dirty splashes up the wall, etc. Sloping, creaking floor.
The mattress was old and uncomfortable - springs dig into you all night. I’m always wary of non-white towels and bed linen as cleanliness is never as good - it’s dark grey towels here and grey bed linen. Thin pillows and duvet. And the TV didn’t work.
I now see there are lots of reviews saying that same. The response from the hotel is always to say something when you’re there but I can’t see how that would make any difference as the whole place is like this.
There was a gap under the room door so I could, sadly. hear other guests easily. The door did a lock but it’s definitely not fire-safe.
If this was a Travelodge if would be shut down as no one would put up with how run down it is. And this place cost me more than a Travelodge.
Positives: There’s a small hotel/pub car park at the back and a Spar (grocery shop) opposite. The pub does serve food (but I got a pizza from a nearby cafe).
I do not recommend this place. I received two WhatsApp messages from scammers who got my data from the hotel’s insecure system. I reported it to the hotel via email and they didn’t respond. I also reported it to Expedia and they were concerned and raised a report. The scammers knew my full name, and the dates I was staying at Gwesty’r Plas Coch Hotel, Bala."
