Read more– opens a dialog boxEach 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're 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 Wifi. 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 got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize 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 who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
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, or 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 other 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 might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

United KingdomIt's easy to be picky so these are not really issues at all but: Having received multiple emails about how to access the key for the property I spent quite a while trying to open the key safe (tricky if you're not used to them), only to find no key in it! Turned out the front door was open and the keys were inside! Also took a day before I found the toaster and microwave which were hidden in a cupboard under the breakfast bar. But I really enjoyed staying there, it was lovely.
The cottage was situated in Barmouth 'Old Town'. There are steps and a narrow alleyway to negotiate to reach it which could prove tricky for anyone with mobility issues. The cottage itself was beautifully renovated and modern. Quite quirky. Very warm, cosy and quiet. The bed was up a ladder in the rafters to enable maximum use of the small space available. Although there is no parking adjacent to the property (impossible due to the location), a parking permit is provided for the beach-front car park which is a few minutes walk away. The general location is great if you want to be in the centre of town.

United KingdomThe futon was rather uncomfortable. This seemed to be an issue for a number of other guests too.
A very cosy little cottage in a quirky part of the town. Everything we needed for our stay was provided.

United KingdomLovely little cottage, warm and cozy. Perfectly located in the heart of Barmouth, yet very quiet. Ideal for walks. Only 2 or 3 minutes walk to the beach, shops, bars and restaurants.

United States of AmericaWe couldn't fault anything l, but speaking for my dog, she wasn't a fan of the stairs to the bed! But at least it kept her in her own bed for a few nights which is a win win for us!
This little cottage is an absolute gem 💎 it had everything you needed, was so cosy, spotlessly clean and in a perfect location in Barmouth!. Lovely little welcome card and complimentary essentials from the host. We would definitely stay there again! Thank you!

United KingdomIt’s a bit of a trek with all your bags (only needed at the start and end of the holiday though so would not put me off rebooking). Bed is much closer to the ceiling than the pictures make it look.
Impeccably clean and had really good bits and pieces in the kitchen….perfect set up. Plenty of space for two people.

United Kingdomthe checkout time was 10 which I thought was pretty early and as we were running 5 minutes late leaving the owner/cleaner came knocking which made us panic and rush so much, put a downer on the holiday and was a little pricey for 2 nights
the unique set up, how tiny it is but great use of space and everything you need is there! perfect location

Beautifully presented and finished to a very high standard. Pictures do not do the cottage justice . Lovely gifts on arrival which were not expected. Very homely . Great location for getting around and using as a base. Very quiet and friendly neighbours . My daughter loved “sleeping in the air “ !
