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 KingdomIt is a great base for me to work in the area for the week. Good transport links and the local traffic-free routes were pleasant for evening exercise. A warm welcome was provided by the owner Ian, as well as a Bara Brith to enjoy throughout the week.

SpainI just found it a little cold but im sure the host would happily sort this out if you had the same problem. You must have a car....if not the taxi is 15 pounds from Bangor....I told the host he could charge alot more....but hope he doesnt as we'd like to go back xx
Host was lovely and suggested a couple of really lovely walks. He left us a beautiful hand baked cake and also gave us some freshly laid eggs....really kind. The views were great. Bed and settee very comfortable and good range of channels on tv. Parking right in front of property and i would imagine excellent facilies if you're in a wheelchair.

United KingdomThere were no facilities in the village itself so it may have been a bit isolated for some, but there are plenty of supermarkets, take-aways etc within a short drive.
A good, quiet base for touring Snowdonia & Anglesey providing you have transport - parking space right on doorstep. Clean, comfortable, well equipped with basic equipment needed for self catering (but bring your own washing up liquid, condiments etc if you need them). Good variety of leaflets for local attractions and list of restaurants. Congenial, helpful host - his Bara Brith cake was a delicious welcome to Wales. We went to see him sing with the Penhryn Male Voice Choir - wonderful!

United KingdomObviously, given that I didn't have a car, it would have been better if Glasinfryn had a more frequent bus service (and/or a shop/cafe/pub) but I found it easy to walk to Tregarth and get buses to Bethesda (and the Ogwen Valley) from there. It's the perfect location for someone who likes quiet and likes walking everywhere (and was blessed with very good weather).
Loved the home-baked bara brith on arrival - still warm! Lovely touch from Ian the host. I enjoyed a slice with butter every day of my stay – it's great hiking food. Well-stocked kitchen with all the items I needed to make my own food, given that there are no shops or pubs in Glasinfryn. Loved the proximity to the Lon Las Ogwen trail (5 mins) and the Blas Lon Las farm cafe and shop (20 min walk) and Bangor pier (90 min walk). I hiked a lot in the Ogwen Valley and found it easy to get buses there once I'd walked to the next village (30 mins).

United KingdomWould be even better if the bedroom had a way of closing it off to the main living area - maybe a curtain? Would be nice to have access to a hoover, otherwise no complaints.
Beautiful part of Wales, stunning scenery. Location was very quiet and peaceful. Greeted and warmly welcomed with a delicious homemade Bara Brith by the owner. Great value for money. Have booked accommodation next door for next holiday as this one is booked up. Looking forward to returning 😀

United KingdomNothing - it was perfect, thank you!
The host was really great - flexible with check in/check out times and generally really friendly! The Bara Brith was gorgeous! We loved our stay in the place. Kitchen has everything you need, it's warm, clean, shower works well. The village itself has several walking routes within walking distance. Felt we got good value for money.
