It is always spotlessly clean and well maintained. Every time we stay, there has been improvements made. It is very well situated for the harbour, the Festiniog and Welsh Highland Railways and the town. The owner is always available if anything should go wrong. The nearby Ship Inn provides good meals. We would not think of staying anywhere else when visiting Porthmadog.

Everything there you would need, even for a long stay. Mention must be made of Fiona, the owner, who very promptly went out of her way to come round to the apartment with a spare key after we temporarily lost the main set soon after arrival. Very nice complimentary cakes on arrival too. Faultless apartment and customer service. Highly recommended.
