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 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):
- 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.).

Could do with sharper knife in kitchen for self catering. Such a minor thing!
How quirky! 130 year old cottage with very uneven floors (felt even wonkier after cocktail at nearby restaurant), well modernised and equipped. Very clean. Thoughtful extra of electric underblankets and extra cosy blankets. Beautiful quality bedlinen. Really close to town centre and historic attractions. Dedicated parking. Wild flowers in vases.

Acoustics. Sound echoes through building. Noise when shutting doors. Probably due to solid doors and no carpet. I like airflow so a fan would of been nice. These arent a show stopper for me.
Fresh, clean, modern, new facilities.

Shower was a bit small - only relative to the massive bathroom. Because the cottage was old the doors were ill-fitting and would slam etc
Big cottage with bright, clean rooms. Free laundry facilities. Decent wifi. Good location - an easy walk into town and to the waterfront.

The only thing I would change is to put in a larger shower or bath, but thats only because I was trying to fit myself and toddler in together and it was a bit tight.
Such a great location, walking distance to town centre and a real piece of Albany heritage. Felt like we were stepping back in time, but with all the comfort of the modern day. Quiet, comfortable and clean.

Minor issues; - small shower recess (difficult for larger people to fit easily) - people staying next door were very loud so it was disruptive when trying to relax in the evening - shutters to bedroom windows weren’t block out, so room was a bit too light early mornings - only glassware provider in kitchen, would like child friendly glasses & plates provided to not stress about breakage
Very clean, modern & well equipped duplex. It was easy to check in. Parking right at the back door. Beds were comfortable. Loved the extra special touches like a bottle of wine, flowers & Christmas decorations. Very handy having a washing machine & clothesline within the property. Great location - can easily walk to the Main Street. Overall loved it & would stay again.

Nothing to complain about. Will book here again when I visit Albany.
Loved the spacious bungalow that has floral fragrance right at the side door. A swing in the large garden good for children. Well equipped kitchen wares, with washing machine and dryer, even has a bathtub. Garage huge enough for 2 cars.
