Guests say
Guests are charmed by the property's stunning harbour views and prime location, ideal for exploring Porthmadog and nearby attractions. The proximity to eateries, steam trains, and scenic areas like Snowdonia is highly appreciated. The property is praised for its warmth, cleanliness, and well-equipped nature, making it a comfortable base for couples and small families, though some guests noted maintenance issues.
The majority of reviews describe the property as very clean and well-kept. However, a few guests mentioned finding remnants from previous occupants and suggested a deeper clean, slightly affecting the overall cleanliness score.
The location is consistently lauded for its beautiful views, convenience to local amenities, and as a great base for exploring the surrounding areas. Its proximity to the steam railway is a highlight for enthusiasts.
Guests find the property homely and comfortable, with a particularly cosy upstairs lounge area. Some guests, however, felt the property could be cramped for more than two adults, and there were minor concerns about the suitability for those with mobility issues.
While the property is generally well-equipped, several reviews mention issues with the Wi-Fi, TV, and some kitchen appliances. These maintenance concerns have led to a lower score in this category.
There are no specific mentions of gifts or special touches that would indicate thoughtfulness from the hosts. Therefore, this category cannot be scored.

Mr Davey
The location was superb, on the harbour with an uninterrupted view out to sea, next to the Ffestiniog Railway and very handy for the town. Porthmadog is an excellent location for a car free holiday. It is on the main line railway and has good bus links in all directions including the excellent Sherpa bus to Snowdonia.

No 50 is a really lovely appartment to stay in. The location is perfect with everything you need. The balcony is a real suntrap where we enjoyed many coffees and glasses of wine! We would definately try to go back there.
