Guest Reviews

• Hafiz (1/5): Other than room all ok - Location The room is very small and totally different from pictures from uploaded on booking.com
• Warwick (6/5): -
• Simon (8/5): -
• Eileen (8/5): Pleasant apartment but linen charge of £30 not acceptable - It suited our needs The bed was small. I was not happy to be charged £30 linen charge. This charge was not declared until payment was due. I am going to take this further as I am not sure it can be legally charged.
• Sue (8/5): - Location was great. Easy walk to the lake, leisure centre, shops, cafes. The only downside was the cobwebs in the bedroom, on the ceiling and around the bed.
• Peter (9/5): Fine - No socket to microwave.
• Graham (8/5): Ideal for three couples who prefer not to share all their facilities. Gloriously central. - Location was excellent and the fact that our group had all three apartments was a welcome bonus. On street parking surprisingly easy, considering the touristy nature of he town, but the ca park opposite was large and far from expensive. Not the prettiest surroundings but Llyn Tegid is a short walk away, as is the high street. Woodland is large but a bit dark, the other two much lighter but slightly smaller. Glassware of reasonable quality to enjoy wine (although out of habit we carry our own glasses for fizz and were glad we did). The top floor fridge was overly cold and froze some vegetables (turned the thermostat up but by then it was too late). A dishwasher would have been nice, which might explain the slightly grubby glassware on arrival. The non-stick coating on some of the cookware is past its best (but we weren't doing much cooking so not a huge problem). TV (on the top floor at least) seemed completely reliant on streaming services, but you don't go on holiday to watch TV.
• anthony (1/5): "The disappointing truth" - The bed The misrepresentation by booking.com nothing mentioned to tell me I had to climb two flights of stairs to my lackside view suite the fact that the apartment was called Lakeside view when all you could see was a car park with public toilets lovely view not the view from my bedroom window a factory unit wall they say it sleeps free the two folding beds located on the landing without bedding the mouldy seating area on decking outside where I imagine I would see the lake all I could see was a factory wall and nothing mentioned other linen charge of £20 till I got my invoice be careful of the boiling hot water in kitchen and the fact that the paint on the walls will get on your clothes and the number of health and safety issues which I will be forwarding to the management of the letting company which are many
• anne marie (10/5): -
• Stephen Simpson (9/5): Excellent accomodation - Comfortable and well equipped in an excellent location with good parking Nil
• Marie (9/5): - Comfortable, clean , fantastic location I struggled to pick anything I didn't like but if I have to say something it was the family below were a little noisy af times in and out of the front door, but it was a minimal complaint. Everything was lovely was my stay.
• James (6/5): -
• Jon (10/5): Highly recommended - Perfect for our needs Nothing all very good
• Lucy (6/5): - The location was perfect for some brilliant walks out into the hills and forests beyond Bala. Also great to be close to shops and pubs. The flat was spacious and comfortable. Noise from the upstairs flat was really loud and we could hear every footstep. It even kept me awake at night. Had someone staying above us for 2 nights out of the 4 we stayed there and unfortunately this was a major turn off for me. Also the smoke alarms went off as we were cooking breakfast. Strangely there's one positioned right near the cooker and it was very sensitive. We couldn't turn them off and had to call the housekeeper who explained what to do. It completely put us off cooking anymore though! I must add that the housekeeper Donna was extremely helpful with our stay and helped sort any problems we had very promptly and efficiently.
• Davis (10/5): - Love this place. Stayed a few times over the last few years
• Jamie (6/5): Great location for walking and enjoying Bala town. - Great location, comfortable and clean. Leaking small shower with rubbish water pressure that had paint flaking off the ceiling above, only two forks which was manageable as there was two of us but annoying. Cheap cooking utensils.
• Shelley (9/5): Bala Holiday Suites Oct 25 - It felt like a cosy home & the furnishings were of a high standard. You could at times hear the upstairs people, I think they may have wooden flooring.
• Alex (10/5): - The suite was very cosy and comfortable. An amazing location and had everything we needed.
• Suzie (9/5): Really pleasant stay in a cosy but home from home apartment. - Great location easy for everything, Well stocked equipment and cosy relaxed feel to the property.
• Samantha (8/5): Great location for walking into the town and a good base for travelling north wales - Great location, fab decor and facilities Water pressure in the shower isn’t brilliant, towel rail in bathroom didn’t work so very cold in there. Hot water at both sinks only like warm
• benfield (9/5): -
• ANNA LOUISE (9/5): Really lovely cottage - Excellent location and really comfortable with everything you needed to have a lovely stay I would have scored 10/10 but there were a few cobwebs in the bedroom
• Susan (10/5): -
• Pushkarenko (10/5): Загалом рекомендую - Сподобалось все , чудове та чисте приміщення , все є необхідне , дуже близько до озера , нам дуже сподобалось Мінус єдине те що в приміщенні не відчиняються вікна , тому в ночі було дуже душно і спати жарко
• Sally (9/5): - Lovely decor. Clean with good facities. Excellent location Need blackout blind in bedroom and a full length mirror somewhere
• Hilary (9/5): Well equipped holiday apartment close to Bala town centre - The Lakeside Suite is a very well-equipped apartment for 2 people, less than 5 minutes walk from the high street with a choice of bars, cafes, restaurants and two supermarkets (Spar and Co-Op). There is a car park opposite the building with free overnight parking (payment necessary during the day). There is also a small outside seating area with lighting that comes on in the evening The apartment is on the second floor and has a reduced height doorway into the apartment- my husband hit his head when entering. The dining table has 3 chairs- a fourth would have been nice so that my brother- and sister-in-law could have sat around the table with us for a meal.
• Edwards (10/5): Cool - Perfect Nothing
• Denise (10/5): - Lovely and clean. Fantastic location so close to Bala lake and the high street.
• David (10/5): - Fantastic stay for two nights 4- 6 August. Apartment was done out to a very high standard with everything that you needed. Great location for the High Street in Bala which was about a three minute walk and also for Lake Bala being ten minutes tops through some lovely fields. Would recommend the Plas Yn Dre pub which is in the centre for lunch or dinner, lovely place and food. Probably 50/50 if you get a parking space on the road directly outside apartment, but if not loads of parking in the car park opposite. Need to pay between 10am - 4.30pm. The local driving instructor swears that he has never seen a traffic warden there!!!. Wish we could off stayed longer but would definitely book again if in the area again. Great communication with the hosts and any questions we're answered very quickly The shower door wouldn't close properly having about a one inch gap and thought around the front door could if done with a bit if a clean with cobwebs etc but probably me being a bit petty
• Daniel (8/5): -
• Hiu Nam (9/5): - -房間佈置很可愛、舒適 -廚房設備都很齊全 -地點於內街，很寧靜，不會很嘈吵 -浴室天花板滴水，但職員已經幫忙就處理了 -沒有洗衣機
• emma (8/5): Close to all amenities and the steam railway - Close to the lake and parking Nice contemporary design inside Quality sheets and towels Very clean The outside space was disappointing. We were expecting a wood-burning stove but it has an electric fire that looks like a log burner. We went in July but we would have been disappointed if we had gone earlier / later in the year.
• Lynneclaire (10/5): - A later check out, even 11am would give enough time to cook breakfast & wash up
• david (9/5): - Lovely unit,quiet area,plenty of parking Nothing
• Julie (9/5): -
• Joshua (8/5): Nice for the price. - Was comfortable with everything you need. Noisy neighbours and across the street from a public car park and public toilets which seemed to have a lot of people from quite early.
• Patrick (5/5): The flat was good, but it was let down by a number of things, which was really disappointing they tanted the stay in Bal - The bed was so comfy and the sitting room cosy and warm. Leaving after not having a relaxing weekend that we thought we were going to get. The neighbours, the flat above were very noisy to all hours. The neighbour from down the street were very noisy and required the police to attend a which was very distracting and we felt very uncomfortable.
• Yilmaz (5/5): Good stay - Very comfortable bed and great location Sofa bed is uncomfortable and hard. Only one toilet roll left and had to go and buy more. Great location, but the price is steep.
• Harry (10/5): -
• Daniel (8/5): -
• Lena (9/5): -
• Julie (8/5): Nice clean accommodation great location - The noise of people walking about above
• tracey (8/5): Very cumfy clean accommodation - Very good accommodation , everything was there when needed Nothing 👍👍👍
• John (10/5): -
• Graham (8/5): Great location to stay when exploring North Wales. -
• Craig (9/5): Fantastic apartment - Very clean, excellent location and facilities. The only small thing was a strong odour from the sofa bed that was very strong at first but was less as more time was spent in the apartment not sure if it’s a cleaning agent or something but other then that fantastic apartment.
• Vincent (10/5): -
• Paul (9/5): Bala apartment's great value - Amazing location, homely feel to thr apartment I'm a big guy shower bit to small for me
• Karen (9/5): Excellent base, for what we wanted. -
• Ceri (6/5): Good location but parking extra & missing a few basics. - Good location for lake and town but parking was at an extra cost. No soap, hand wash or shower gel. Hand wash delivered next day when requested but antibacterial and not suitable for a shower
• Cherryl (9/5): Lovely cosy place to relax - Lovely, quiet place to stay in Bala. Parking could be an issue, but we were lucky enough to get a park out the front. Bedroom is ‘cosy’, but living area and kitchen area are spacious. It was very comfortable and a nice place to slow down for a couple of days. Hosts communicated well at every stage. Only negative was the lack of soap/shower gel in the bathroom. We’ve been travelling for 6 weeks so rely on those little touches being available.
• dorothy (10/5): Lovely stay - The apartment was lovely and everything you need the bed was really comfy and would highly recommend
• catherine (10/5): Lovely stay - Position and comfortable and clean
• Richard (8/5): Perfect location in very comfortable accomodation - Very comfortable apartment in a great location - very close to the town and also a lovely walk to the lake and other footpaths. Parking was okay as not too busy. Bala is well positioned to visit all sorts of wonderful Welsh attractions. Weather was amazing Outside sitting area needs a bit of tender loving care
• Deb (8/5): Very comfortable, well appointed and great value for money - I think we got a deal! - Comfortable apartment with good self-catering facilities, including washing machine and dryer. Easy parking overnight in carpark or any time on the road outside. Slippery shower floor because no door seal. Over sensitive/poorly placed smoke detector. Carpet impeded access to fridge. The fact that many previous occupants have raised similar concerns (written in guest book) which have not been acted upon.
• Saffron (8/5): Comfortable for a short stay - Location was excellent and provided a good base for our trip. The accommodation was just right for the two of us. It would have been nice to have had more information in the layout of the Bala suite properties so that we could have been more informed before choosing, instructions for the heater in living space would also have been useful.
• Munish (10/5): The apartment we had actually made us want to spend a little more time there as it had an incredible ‘Home from Home’ fe - Spacious, clean & very homely. Everything you need for a short or longer stay, was provided. We will definitely be booking again for sure. Bed was too small, but only because we are used to a much larger bed. Although there was a sofa, which was also a sofa bed, sitting on it wasn’t the most comfortable, but lots of cushions provided.
• chitty (10/5): -
• AJ (6/5): - The apartment is beautiful and well equipped. Super comfy bed. However, it was a very cold weekend outside and the bedroom radiator did not work. Instead, a portable heater was provided which also intermittently worked. The result was the apartment was freezing the entire stay unfortunately, which was unideal after long days outside. I contacted the provider but they didn't respond. Have had to cancel our return trip stay next week and book elsewhere as a result. Everything was nice apart from how cold it was. Would be perfect in summer months
• Shari (8/5): Comfortable in good location - Great location - easy walk to the lake and town centre. Door to bathroom was quite low which isn't good if you're tall!
• Katarzyna (10/5): -
• Mandy (10/5): Absolutely loved it, can’t wait to go back - Absolutely everything!! Clean, comfortable, cosy, location. Nothing
• Freya (8/5): -
• Paul (8/5): -
• Davis (10/5): -
• David (8/5): A few days break in Bala for hillwalking - Great location. Confortable And clean. Lovely bed. I couldn’t get the shower as hot as I like. Electric fire didn’t get the room warm very quickly
• Nada (9/5): Loved the cosy feel, whole apartment was very clean. Would stay again. - Very cosy feel, great location for walking and High Street, lovely comfortable bed and great fluffy towels Shower kept running hot and cold
• Roy (10/5): Lovely lovely lovely lovely, shot hit. - Lovely nice great sound fab good beauty and tidy. Get a safety handle in the shower and easier to operate fire/heater and shower control.
• Mark (10/5): Bala - Everything was immaculate and well presented
• Laxman (9/5): -
• Renee (5/5): Disappointed. - It was easy to find and the property itself was nice with a bedroom, clean bathroom, kitchen and living room. When arriving at the property and making our way to the room, the stairs were extremely creaky and the walls were thin, so (being in room 3) we could hear people in the room below. The bed sheets had not been washed before we came to stay. There were hairs on the bed sheet, as well as make-up stains and other (unknown) stains.
• Jenkins (8/5): cosy stay in Bala - Nice and cosy. sink was broken. But it was fixed the day after I reported it so then it was fine.
• Stephen (9/5): -
• Aaron (9/5): -

• Neil (7/5): -
• Paris (7/5): Beautiful apartment in a great location - Location is perfect. The bed was very comfortable and the apartment was a nice size with great facilities. Everything you could need was there and it is a very welcoming place. Some things are out of the host’s control so I don’t want to be too negative but I did struggle to sleep due to noise from neighbours. I didn’t think I’d have that issue being on the top floor and what was most odd was it sounded as if it was above me! I could hear their tv, their conversation etc and so I couldn’t sleep until they did (around 1am which is quite a difference to my usual 10pm) Also, being put on the top floor as I am a single parent with a baby and had a lot of baggage to carry up two flights of stairs was a bit frustrating. I had communicated the fact I would be alone with my baby so was surprised I was put at the top. I had to bring my own cot etc and it was quite difficult unloading the car and getting everything upstairs - I hadn’t realised there were three floors when I booked it or I would have specified a ground floor apartment. I just think perhaps the hosts could consider this for any future single parents as we will take whatever help we can get to ease the work! The wrong code was given to me for the lockbox but the housekeeper was very quick to respond to my messages and rectify the situation. Overall the apartment is lovely and I can’t fault the facilities. I think the hosts send too many emails/messages with repeated information but it’s better than not communicating enough I suppose! Checkout is a little early in my opinion but now I am just being hyper critical. Thank you for a lovely apartment and overall enjoyable stay.
• Sophie (9/5): Had a lovely stay at Bala and would stay again. - Lovely location, really easy with carpark opposite. I think it would be better with a bigger bed. But it was very comfortable.
• Grace (10/5): Wonderful short family break - Beautifully decorated, very comfortable apartment with nice touches like games to play. We loved it, thank you. NA
• Catherine (7/5): Good location , comfortable base. - Good location Comfortable bed Good facilities Lamps in lounge and bedroom not working Some kitchen equipment not clean. Duvet cover far too big for the quilt, so ended up with lots of spare material, which was uncomfortable when trying to sleep.
• Amanda (10/5): Cosy, comfortable ideal stay for us all… you can tell the owners took time and money to make it spotless and good qualit - So clean, had everything we needed that we forgot to bring. Quality bedding, towels etc. low shower, ideal for those less abled.situated 5 minutes from the lake 3 minutes from the town, and 15 minutes walk to Bala steam train. Games for keeping us entertained whilst the rain came.great instructions on what/how things worked. So cosy Can’t find anything to dislike
• Ginette (10/5): Beautiful stay - The apartment is situated close to the lake and to the town amenities. The decor and cleanliness is to a high standard throughout. It smells lovely as you walk in. All the cushions are so comfortable. We used the sofa bed and this was easy to put out and was also comfy providing a good night's sleep. Everything you need is accessible. The housekeeping lady was super friendly and when an alarm was going off upstairs around 6am, she came within 3 minutes of me contacting her.We only stayed for one night but I wished it was longer. There was nothing I didn't like.
• Paul (9/5): - Had everything you need for a short stay Nothing
