How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

Verified reviewPros: Absolutely stunning location, so peaceful and amazing views. Surrounded by farm animals and nature with mountain views. Dog friendly enclosed garden. Attentive host, had one issue on arrival which was sorted promptly. Very clean. Liked the interior, brilliant hot shower, modern clean kitchen facilities. Easy to walk into town if needed.
Cons: Mattress 100% needs replacing, very thin and soft. Bbq could do with a good clean or being completely replaced. More kitchen utensils, glasses, pans etc would be useful. First self catering lodge I've stayed in without any tea/coffee, no dish cloth, no tea towel. I think these should be provided as standard. On saying that, the location did make up for the above as it is beautiful. If the above issues were addressed, we would definitely return. Just felt that for £125 per night, there were a few bits missing that would have made our stay more comfortable and better value for money.

Verified reviewA beautiful location, very serene, lovely views. The little garden was secure for dogs and the hut was well equipped. The bathroom has a good shower.
Although I booked 6+ weeks before I stayed, I wasn't advised until the morning of my stay that there was an additional £15 charge for dogs, which I was chased for. This made the stay £140 for a night which doesn't feel like good value for money. In addition, there was no tea or coffee which is really unusual in self-catering accommodation.

Verified reviewlocation was spectacular , soooo peaceful just us and the lambs and mama sheep and the beautiful cadar views. couldn't ask for anything better away from it all and people. it was just beautiful place to sit and just switch off. loved it all and would definitely return . I just love being around nature and the hut met all our needs .
i loved the whole stay -i would say there was nothing i didnt like. but a few little extra touches would make the hut a 5 star ,, mirror in bathroom, frying pan , and more cooking pots, and better knifes for those of us who like to self cater. and basics like washing up pads, brushes etc . the bed mattress could do with replacing as not the most comfiest

Verified reviewI was only there for 2 nights but considering the time of year, I couldn’t have asked for better weather. The hut was really nice in a stunning location, it has almost everything you need, add a frying pan and job done. It’s in a perfect place for heading out for a day in the mountains and Dolgellau is only a short drive away for shops etc.
