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.).

AustraliaLots of mosquitoes day and night 24/7 could not enjoy the balcony with view or going outside the property, to eat or have a drink or bbq with out getting eaten alive. Even with bushman’s spray on the body , still got bitten and wife is allergic to mosquitoes she welted up. Gap between the entry door and flys screen when closed so mosquitoes get into the house and eat you alive as well while you sleep even if you spray the whole place before you go to bed Had to close all windows and doors to reduce the mosquitoes entering maybe a zap light inside and out side would help a little , felt like I was locked up inside due to mosquitoes besides that I would give it 100%
Was a nice place to stay very well equipped as a self contained cottage had everything you need to cook up a meal very impressed. Place is close to Forster Nice and quiet and very friendly owner

AustraliaThe driveway is a little narrow. Not really a negative though. Lovely stay.
The frangipanis were in bloom; the evening chorus of kookaburras was wonderful, the changing mood of the lake view from the verandah; the hammock in afternoon dappled light. Well equipped kitchen. Puzzles on rainy day.

CanadaOnly minor "complaint" would be the exclusion of beach towels. Fortunately, we were able to borrow some from nearby relatives, but for those travelling to the Forster-area and looking to lounge on the beach, a set of towels would probably be appreciated. Having said that - Ken (host) was very responsive during our stay and could have probably provided beach towels had we asked.
A lovely location, with beautiful views over the lake. Loved sitting outside for breakfast (listening to the birds chirping was delightful), dinner (taking in the gorgeous sunsets) and lounging in the hammock soaking in the afternoon sun. Check in/out was seemless and well-communicated, and Ken (host) was very responsive during our stay. Was great to have laundry on-site, including outdoor hanger for drying. Overall, the property was clean, tidy and very comfy. It was nice to be located outside of the Forster city-centre, but easy to get ino town via car (10-15 min drive) or bus (didn't use, but it seemed convenient enough).

Ken and Cathy have gone out of their way to make their guest comfortable. They have thought of everything and it was lovely to go somewhere where everything was provided for you. The bed was comfortable with an electric blanket and plenty of heaters as well A ++

AustraliaThe driveway is narrow and steep, making the initial arrival at the property somewhat daunting. Access in and out of the shower could be improved with some safety hand rails.
The house is is lovely and wonderfully decorated with many thoughtful features included. The view from the well appointed veranda is beautiful, it was a pleasure to sit out there and enjoy the sunset. (Friendly suggestion...the addition of some hooks on the backs of the doors would be great).

AustraliaNo air conditioner for summer months and cookware fry pans getting old
The place was clean and tidy the only thing we suggest maybe an reverse cycle air conditioner as we can imagine in the summer this place could be very hot and some new fry pans as our fish stuck. Otherwise a beautiful, quiet and relaxing stay with stunning water views.
