Guests Comments:

Mrs G (June 2021):  "The sail loft was ok but furniture dated. We could not both sleep in the bed because there was no room to get in at one side as the roof sloped so steeply. My husband slept on the sofa bed! However, the setting was lovely and our host was nice."
Mr & Mrs E (Sep 2020):  ?Clean apartment, ideal for a couple, the owner of the Sail Loft was very friendly & welcoming, providing some lovely touches i.e. Wine & milk in the fridge tea & biscuits on the worktop. Sail Loft is close to the town centre but in a peaceful location & a good base for touring the area.?
Ms F (Aug 2020): "We had a fantastic week in Porthmadog staying in Sail Loft. The location couldn't be better - you are right in the centre of the town, with beautiful views over the harbour and the mountains behind. The flat is small but perfectly formed with a well stock kitchen. The owner of Sail Loft was such a lovely welcoming host and she gave us loads of great local tips. There are loads of amenities just a few minutes walk away. Furthermore, Porthmadog is the perfect base to explore North Wales. Portmeirion is a 10 minute drive away, and there are dozens of amazing little towns/beaches/mountains/hikes within an hours drive.  Highly recommend staying here if you are visiting the area!"
Mr K (November 2019): "Pretty simple and quiet place, 7 minutes walk to center and steam train. All you need is available, except wifi. Friendly careful owners."

Mr E. (Sept 2019): "The Sail Loft was a nice cosy bolt hole and STS staff were very helpful in finding it at such short notice due to a double booking elsewhere. Comftable, clean and well situated for the town."
