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 use a weighted review system which means that 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 KingdomThis great pub is in a lovely village. The room was cleam and pleasant, the staff friendly and both the evening meal and breakfast delicious. My friend and I were walking a stretch of the coastal path and found it a perfect stop over. Don't miss a visit to the church - fascinating!

United KingdomEverything was good. I can recommend though that they put a small bench or side table next to the bath so one can put items on for when you get out of the bath.
• Location: Just a short drive off the main road, easily accessible yet peaceful. • Room Quality: A lovely room with brand-new, modern décor. • Bathroom: Very spacious and well-designed – a standout feature. • Comfort: The bed was very comfortable and we slept well. • Amenities: Plenty of charging points, including USB and USB-C connectors in the room. • Breakfast: Served in a separate dining room from the bar, which kept it quiet and relaxing. • Food: Delicious breakfast, prepared based on orders placed the previous day. • Overall Ambience: Quiet, stylish, and ideal for relaxation

United StatesBut … two of the four rooms are very small (uncomfortably so). We stayed in Room 2 for one night, then had to move to Room 3 for our second night. Rooms 1-2 are king beds, large and spacious rooms with nice bathrooms. Rooms 3-4 are very small with low ceilings. I would definitely spend the extra money and book the larger rooms! But the most difficult part was the trapped heat in the room. We almost felt suffocated at night. There is only one window in Room 2, so no movement of air. And the flies were terrible, swarming around our heads all night and morning. I’d highly recommend the property invest in screens on their windows and supplying a simple fan in each room to help with the heat and ventilation. So, I’m mixed on my review. It’s important to be honest on our reviews so others can make informed decisions.
The pub and atmosphere were nice, and the food delicious. Yes, the rooms are renovated/updated and the towels and sheets are nice. It’s very clean and new …

The room was Lovely and clean and well Presented , glad we paid extra for the larger room the bathroom was fab and the shower welcome after a very hot day. The food was Lovely and a good price the Staff were really friendly and welcoming. The room was a little warm but we were in the middle of a heatwave so couldn’t be avoided. Would definitely stay here again close proximity to Aberdyfi and Mac at a really good price with an excellent breakfast included.
