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.).

AustraliaFrom the photos and description on Booking.com we were expecting a secluded and spacious place. Accommodation is right beside a house (the owners?). We could hear the conversation of the people next door. Also, the place is quite small for 4 adults, not the best fit for us - especially the lack of privacy (this might have been fine for a couple).
Clean and quite nicely appointed.

AustraliaI can't say there was anything I didn't like, a couple of comments I can make are only that while you are right on the water it isn't a beach with sand. It's very rocky but I'm from QLD, it was a bit cool for me to swim so I really enjoy sitting and looking at the water and the beach is only a couple of minutes away. Some people commented about the noise of the train, we had it pass at both night (1220) and during the day. I was actually asleep when the night train went through and it didn't wake me and we thought it was a bit of a novelty to see it go past.
We had a great stay *Very clean *Great communication *Heaps of games and books *Lovely ocean views *Good location *Owner takes pride in the property *Comfy beds *Good size tv *Private *Walked over to Goat Island and climbed to the top - small climb with lovely views

AustraliaA washing machine would be great for longer stays but it was no hardship relaxing and sightseeing instead of laundry.
Excellent location and beautiful home and yard with everything we needed. Bonus points for being dog freindly. The house is close to Penguin, Ulverstone and the delights of the North West Coast. Terrific veiw looking out to sea and Goat Island. Great communication from the owner. We had a lovely stay at this house with our dogs.
