Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews

Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.

When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.

Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Great view and cute village

Sept 2018 • Family

The castle is more like a tower, but worth the climb for the view from the top. You can literally see the whole of the landscape surrounding the castle/village. Also worth exploring the old part of the village on foot.

Beautiful

I really liked the small town, but the castle, the fountain and the church are beautiful. I ate at Albertina. I recommend visiting it, it's interesting.
