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.).

AustraliaWish the main area would have blinds you can open a dam close yourself as the main bedroom didn’t have a heating device and if we left our door open to get warmth the light shone in our room and would wake us.

AustraliaPerhaps some steps from the deck to the grass would make access easier, and safer.
We loved staying at this quirky round house! It appealed on the website, and did not disappoint, as the location and views of the harbour were fabulous. We enjoyed the tranquility of sitting on the deck watching the water, as the tide rolled out and revealed amazing sandbanks to walk on. Inside, the living area provided a wonderful sunny, warm space to relax in, and the water view from the bedroom was delightful.

Australia-
Waking up to the stunning view of Taylor’s Bay was like nothing else! Those big beautiful large glass panels around the cottage gave perfect unobstructed water views, and the deck was very much utilised for morning coffee, cheese boards, wine and oysters galore! The property felt nice and private, couldn’t see the neighbours at all! Plenty of space, the main bedroom was huge, the kitchen was fully stocked with all the utensils needed, and it was very useful having a washer/dryer in the bathroom. Couldn’t fault it… was a top location… half way between the neck and the light house, close to the pub, and was pretty much a central point to all the places we wanted to go. Had some little wildlife friends visit in the evening!!! Wish we had stayed longer! Thank you for having us!!

AustraliaThe price was a little expensive compared to other Bruny Island houses. The rooms were a good size. The doors leading out to the front deck could have been more secure. There wasnt a step off the deck.
The location was very quiet and peaceful, with lots of wildlife to observe. There was everything you required while on holidays, even an iron. Having a fire was great as the weather was cool. We enjoyed the surroundings of the cottage with lots of trees and views. Nice spot for bird watching. Should've brought the binoculars.

AustraliaHouse was a bit "worn" in one small place - door handle on the door to the back patio was broken and the door does not close squarely. Bathroom could do with some heating (perhaps ceiling heat lamps) as bathroom was freezing and located too far from the house heaters to gain any heat.
Lovely location and house.

AustraliaUnfortunately the property is very close to a dirt road and the dust from the road was excessive due to continual heavy traffic use. The dust infiltrated the cottage regardless of whether the windows and doors were closed. Trying to keep the cottage clean from dust was never ending.
The property itself was great with all utilities excellent, comfortable bed & superb views.
