Henri was very nice. Beautiful old house right next to the medieval wall. Awesome old kitchen in basement with hearth. Simple but appreciated breakfast of toast and cereal. If willing to spend a little extra , the upstairs apartment sleeps 3 with your own bathroom, couch, and tv.

The matresses were a bit uncomfortable, but it was an all in all very enjoyable experience.

Generally a nice hostel, but the space between beds are really too small to straightly sit on the bed....

Nice little place. About the only thing missing is wifi. Brilliantly located in the middle of the old town just near the water. Rooms are nice and the en-suite was very nice. I even managed to scab parking around the corner. Thanks for having me! A great place to base for a walk around Snowdon.

Had a great stay at Totters. Very laid back and comfortable, clean, and friendly. Breakfast was great too! I slept like a log on the comfortable mattresses. It was a great location both within Caernarfon, and for visiting other places around North Wales.

Our stay at Totters was really nice, I recommend this place.

The building itself was quite beautiful, and perfectly located on the castle wall, less than a 5 minute walk from the bus stop. I used the hostel as a place to stay while I went to climb Snowdon and couldn't have asked for anything better. It's more of a B&B than a hostel, family owned and run; you feel like you're in someone's home rather than a cheesy decorated hostel. The breakfast spread won me over with nutella presented for the toast! :)

The only drawback is that there's no internet connection, otherwise it's a very good place to stay.

The unisex shower/toilet room has only curtains but the facilities are all new, great kitchen if you wanted to cook up a feed - lovely place with homely feeling kitchen, dining and lounge room - great location within the walled township, comfortable beds and toasty room which had been the first dorm we're been comfortable in all winter - once you are in the front door however you have access to the dorms so lock up you bags - i would stay here again

Nice place but they didn't check their bookings and gave our room to someone else. Big disappointment but they put us in a dorm instead. Call to confirm your booking.

very nice hostel, a little hard to find, but good location right in the center of town, lots of games, TV, and a nice kitchen.
