Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and 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 KingdomShould've booked for more nights!
Every little detail taken care of by the owners. Milk, bread, butter, juice, eggs, fresh coffee (and cafetiere) jams, cakes, cereals, pasta, sauce and more all there on arrival. The homemade houmous was a bonus!! Super clean and comfortable. Stay for more than one night as its so close to Snowdon (and other mountains) and Betws-y-coed is 10 mins away.

United KingdomNot much the only thing we found difficult was finding the location in the dark and the road, as expected due to the location was a narrow country lane , we would advise to get there before dark if driving to the location, other than that everything was perfect x

United KingdomNothing we didn’t like - would say you can only stay at this property if you have a car.
Myself and my partner stayed in the Shepherds Hut and had the most lovely stay. Safe to say our hosts Hillie and John go the extra mile for their guests, with fresh baked cupcakes and bread. Super welcoming and helpful. The hut has everything you need for a cosy stay. Would happily recommend and revisit 😌

We like the very high standard of presentation. Visiting the Shepherd's Hut was a luxurious experience because of the care the hosts have used when creating this special place. We loved the location with stunning views of the mountains.

I cannot recommend this place enough! Stunning location and Hellie went above and beyond. We had cupcakes on arrival and freshly baked bread the place was beautiful and the extra touches were the icing on the cake. As its opposite an army base we also got to see a Mack loop which my husband loved. The hut is comfortable and well stocked with the essentials you may need and then some. The main town area is only a few minutes drive away and it’s conveniently located to other must see places.

Everything. The location was good, it was quiet and peaceful, close enough to interesting places to explore. Although small, it was very comfortable, and we loved all the extra little touches - the fridge stocked with milk, juice, several jams, and nut butter, the freshly baked bread and other little treats. The owners are also lovely and friendly. We also loved the big fluffy towels and very comfortable bed. And not least the amazing view of Snowdon.
