Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

United KingdomFelt very comfortable and homely. Wood burner was lovely. Kitchen well stocked, appliances and equipment. Plenty of seating. Bathroom was small, but everything you needed. Grateful for the off street parking, as roads narrow.

United KingdomThere's nothing that would stop me staying at Haulfryn again, it's really great. Only having one bathroom was a bit inconvenient when staying with a couple of friends but far from a problem really.
Haulfryn is in the elevated part of Bethesda, meaning it's a bit away from the main road and has absolutely stunning views of the mountains of Eryri. Off road parking is a great bonus at Haulfryn as there's lots of on-street parking in the area, I can't believe how quiet the house was, it's great for folk wanting some peace and quiet after a day exploring north Wales. A well equipped kitchen for cooking, and Deliveroo available when you don't want to cook. Would definitely stay again when I'm next in the area.

United StatesThere was nothing we didn't like, but here is some feedback. We had 6 people in our group.... and only one bathroom, and it was on the second floor. We made it work, but it took some coordination when getting ready in the mornings. There are slate steps between the parking area and the back door. When the slate gets wet, it can get VERY slippery. there is a alternate way to get around to the door though. The street the cottage is on is a hill. We didn't have any problems in our car climbing the hill, but in the winter, if there is ice or snow, it could be difficult to navigate.
The cottage is a beautiful, cozy little home. Everything was clean and in good working order. The view from the garden of the mountains was beautiful. Very thankful for the off street parking. The detail in the manual left by the home owner on the history of the home and permits/info on all major appliances was a comfort to know that they take pride in keeping things working and up to code. We had enough space for the 6 of us without feeling like we were on top of each other.

With stunning views and easy access to all the nearby sights, this cottage is the perfect stay for any groups/family. Travelled with my parents in their late 60s and they loved how comfortable the cottage was and the kind hospitality of welsh cakes, bara brith, milk and tea/coffee prepared for us. Will definitely return someday. Diolch yn fawr iawn!

United Kingdomit’s an older property, so some creaky floor boards and uneven floor. Lots of steps outside, some loose paving stones, so not ideal with anyone with mobility restrictions, and could be a nasty fall if you lose land on a paving stone wrong or lose your balance. However we had no issues and found the property had character and was quirky.
great location, off street parting for 2 easily plus a 3rd if needed (but would block other 2 in), amazing views, very clean with everything you need, but the best bit was the cake, cookies, chocolate and a bottle of wine! Nice touch, thank you.

United KingdomNot many places to eat outside if you don't want to cook after a busy day of exploring surroundings & very limited takeaway options. Mattress was on a harder side ( but that's personal preferences and didn't really impact our stay). My partner struggled with it a bit more, but still would be happy to return.
Lovely peaceful location with stunning views, bus stop nearby as well as the local shops. Fully equipped kitchen and everything you can possibly need is provided. Lovely welcoming gift of a bottle of wine and Welsh cake was a nice touch 👌 it was like coming to a home away from home;) Fast wi-fi, central heating and instantly hot water was great. Will be happy to come back but next time definitely by the car..

United KingdomThe whole cottage is very dated. It had a strange smell, it was not cleaned properly. The kitchen towels were stinking , the kitchen drawers, cupboard underneath the sink- all had a bad odour. The beds were extremely small to sleep for 2 adults and the spring in the bed made disturbing noise when changing positions . The towels provided were very old and there were no toiletries in bathroom. There were old 1/4 th filled bottles of shower gel left, which appeared to be left by previous customers.
I liked the location of the property, as it was close to zip world and other tourist spots.

United KingdomSome areas not so clean such as cobwebs, hairs in bathroom, food stains in cupboards and food left from previous occupants. Bunk beds were quite rickety and so wouldn’t want to put any one of any weight on the top! Beds uncomfortable and noisy when rolling over.
Fabulous location and very spacious. We came as a family of 6. Lovely touch with the wine and cakes
