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.).

Our stay at the River suites was very comfortable. The hosts were super friendly. A beautiful young couple. The place is a little old, but very clean and comfortable. The owners are planning to renovate the place this year. I wish them all the best!

United KingdomThe accommodation basically needs a coat of paint and new carpets. Hand rails from accommodation to the upstairs restaurant/breakfast area unstable and need replacing for safety reasons, as do the steps up to the restaurant/breakfast area, some rotting and need replacement - again for safety. The accommodation is on top of a very steep hill, lots of loose gravel on the road when parking the car and walking on to the road to access the accommodation, making it very difficult for anyone with a disability, who definitely would need to have room service only. I think the owners are new and are probably in the process of updating and maintaining the property, so good for them, as it's the most beautiful place.
We loved the view from our room, which all of the rooms had, and the view from the restaurant/breakfast area was magnificent. Lots of room, well furnished with a good hot water supply.

AustraliaThe rooms were a little tired looking.
The owners are lovely people. Very helpful and willing to share their local knowledge. Breakfast was delicious. And due the number of rooms the dining room never felt full. The dining room itself is a very welcoming space with plenty of natural light and beautiful views. Room was spotless and comfortable. Because of the position of the accommodation every room has a river view.

AustraliaWe loved everything about the stay.
Comfortable and well positioned room in the facility. The wonderful owners could not have been more helpful. They organised for us to charge the EV overnight given the island is still coming up to speed for the EV world. The degustation local seafood meal was absolutely superb and the breakfasts were fantastic.

Amazing location and great service! Would highly recommend! Rooms are spacious and overlook the water, you are surrounded by nature. Around the accommodation there are a couple of trails you can walk along, and a couple of really good hotels. The owner was extremely cordial and even helped us look for the koala which is usually around the hotel. Highly recommend this stay for any relax!

The location is beautiful. The rooms were very comfortable and had a wonderful view. We had dinner in our room. Excellent food and Nico owner and chef offered this service despite having an evening where he was serving a 7 course meal to a full restaurant. The breakfast was also excellent and was included in the room price. Lots of delicious homemade produce and fresh food. Would not hesitate to recommend this place. It is a family run business and they could not do more to make us welcome or to advise on places to visit and eat on the island. Hope to come again.
