I was first struck on entering by its cleanliness - the condition was immaculate. The house is well laid out and the kitchen has all you need to settle in and take care of all your culinary needs. The bedroom I used was spacious and the bed was very very comfortable. I slept soundly, which is never a guarantee for me. There was ample hot water and good water pressure. The wi-fi was great and I had no issues streaming on my tablet, though I also appreciated having a tv to catch some news and such. The location was wonderfully, just a few steps from a great pub and from an access point to the old city walls. I found the hosts to be very helpful when I reached out to get a drying rack for a load of laundry I had to do. If I get back to Conwy, I would definitely stay here again.

I did wish there was a laundry airer for drying clothes. Conwy has the loudest seagulls we have ever heard, but other than that, we slept great!
