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.

Saw this on google maps and was intrigued. Fascinating window into the history of clock-making in the area. Cost only €5 and you could spend 20 mins to 2 hours there. Staff v nice.

Some interesting exhibits including the world's smallest working bike! (Yes I know it's a clock museum, but it is there 😊) well laid out and very helpful staff. Well worth going to if you have an interest in clocks... or very small bikes!
