“Overall it was nice but I wouldn't recommend staying at this property with children.”
The views are wonderful, sofa and beds were comfy, kitchen well equipped, and amazing bath in the window. Our stay was hampered however by the strong smell of cigarettes coming from the flat below (hence the children comment), especially in the rear bathroom and bedroom. We had to move our baby from the room because the smell was so awful and we were unable to use the bathroom as a result. Our clothes and towels smelled of smoke too. There is a strict no smoking policy in the building but you can tell someone is smoking inside as the smell comes and goes and is very strong. A lot of the windows didn't either work which meant we couldnt let fresh air in when it was hot and smokey smelling, or close them firmly at night when it was windy so it was quite loud. Other issues we found were mould smelling furniture, dvd player not working, and old food down the back of the sofa. Maybe it was just bad luck, but I read other reviews about the same issues. Criccieth was very pleasant, the castle has great views and there are lots of nice places to get ice cream!
