Great space .. lovely people & very well organized

Nicholas United Kingdom

Neil was a great host, good bar and breakfast area. Ideal location. The breakfast was excellent. The shower and toilet facilities were very clean and well kept. Overall the Vagabond bunkhouse is a great short term stay which I would highly recommend, if you have no problem bunking up with random people. Will definitely visit and stay again.

James United Kingdom

Betws-y-Coed is gorgeous, and the Vagabond Bunkhouse fits in perfectly. Nestled behind the main street, next to rushing stream, rustic and colorful, very warm, welcoming, and comfortable. The bunk rooms are large and spacious, the beds warm and comfortable.
