Myself and Michelle are staying in the Gwynant Guest House in Betws-y-Coed. When I booked on Thursday 16th April there was a family room left @ £20pp B&B. The family room holds 4 people.http://www.gwynant-snowdonia.co.uk/

An alternative is the Glan Aber Hotel's Bunkhouse. This is £15pp this does not include breakfast. http://www.glanaberhotel.com/accommodation/index.html

There are also various Youth Hostels in the area, if you are not a member these charge an additional £3pp on top of advertised rates.http://www.yha.org.uk/find-accommodation/wales/
