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.).

The views across the bar from the window were wonderful to wake up to every morning. Just a short stroll to the High Street with pubs shops etc. Great shower and comfortable beds what more can you ask.

United KingdomNot alot.
Great location with dedicated parking. Overlooking both the harbour and the Ffestiniog railway and within easy walking distance of the station. The centre of Portmadoc is also easlily accesable on foot, with the Maritime Museum worth a visit. Host is freindly and keen to help if needed.

United KingdomThe only issue I had and it wasn't the property fault etc but my physical issues is the stairs to the upstairs but I have issues with every set of stairs. Even in my own home so no real problems.
The flat and facilities were well above our expectations. Everything made my holiday like a dream plus it was so close to the beautiful harbour where views over it were exceptional from the roof of our bedroom. And to be able to watch the trains filling with coal etc. I will definately be considering again to return again.

United KingdomIt’s hard to find any negatives here, If we had to be pushed for anything we would say the 10am check out if this moving friars was midday this would of made it outstanding …. will 100% be coming back and recommending this place to friends and family.
It’s the perfect home from home and the host/owner Edward made this so before we even arrived by being in contact on a friendly level with all the information we’d need even before we thought about it. Ideally located at Porthmadog which puts you geographically in a superb spot to visit most places well within an hour, With great views of the harbour and cute little train station. If you’re looking for an immaculate little HQ whilst in Wales then this is the place. Great value for money and it’s nice to see an owner invest in their rental property with an immaculate modern kitchen and bathroom. This property has everything you need whilst on your stay and with a Tesco round the corner it’s so easy to grab a few bits for the fridge and cupboards on your way in. Don’t delay if this place is available on the dates your visiting then click the ‘BOOK NOW’ button.

United KingdomA very nice apartment. Very clean and comfortable. The location for was just right for an old steam nut like myself, easy to drive to and the parking spot right outside the door. The kitchen was well equipped and have a welcome pack to get you started. There was also a good selection of books etc. I found it very quiet, other than the odd engine whistle from the Ffestiniog,

United KingdomNo washing machine/dryer which wasn't a problem on a 3 night stay but might be less convenient for a longer period.
Great location overlooking Porthmadog harbour and a convenient parking space with easy access to the High St. Liked the arrangement of the living/kitchen area on the first floor. Owner was very helpful. The apartment is small but well-planned, a good base if you're planning to be out and about. Would stay again.

United KingdomThe Balcony was a huge plus for us. We spent every morning and every evening sitting there, soaking up the sun and the beautiful harbour views. The apartment was clean, beds were very comfortable and it was the right size for a small family. The owner was welcoming, helpful and always available to answer questions. We would highly recommend and would definitely stay there again.

United KingdomThe huge amount of long, overly detailed emails from Sykes Holiday Cottages. The stingy small pack of 2 tea bags, 2 sachets of coffee and two pots of uht milk for a house booked for 3 people for 2 nights. The bedrooms are very small, the door to the double bedroom doesn't open fully because it hits the bed. Bathroom is very small and cold unless you leave the towel rail on the whole time, which you are told several times not to do. The shower floods the floor because of the very strange shower screen. Not great value for money.
Great location. Nice terrace where you can glimpse steam trains. But be careful, it is very slippery in the rain.
