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.).

United StatesNo top sheet on bed and no shampoo/conditioner in shower.
Location was perfect for walking into town, 2 minute walk. The facilities were spacious and clean. We loved all the natural light in the house and the back patio.

Perfect for two couples, very comfortable, fully equipped kitchen, nice courtyard garden. The location is perfect, less than five minute walk to the square and backing on to the Abbey gardens. Bars and restaurants all in short walking distance.No parking, However, just five minutes walk to large public car park, bargain £9 weekly parking ticket.

United KingdomReally enjoyable stay, the property was clean, modern and centrally located. Graeme our host made everything very easy for us and pre-empted any queries we had about collecting keys, which are simply in a safe outside the property, and accessed via a code Graeme provided. We were staying over for work and this made a great alternative to the hotels in town. Loved the little courtyard garden, will hope to return in summer for optimal weather!

United KingdomBeing on the main road, the upstairs room was a little noisy with the window open but this really didn’t bother us much.
Cottage was perfect, it had everything we could have wanted during our stay. It was clean, tidy and comfortable and we really enjoyed our visit. Graeme was also an excellent host and so helpful with any questions we had. We would definitely stay again if we visit the area!

NorwayShame there was no handsoap in the bathrooms. The cottage smelt very strongly of air freshener sticks. This really isn’t necessary and was rather unpleasant.
So roomy. Tastefully decorated. Wonderful bathroom facilities. Clean. Excellent location.

United KingdomNothing about the property as its is near on perfect but it is is located on a main road so can be noisy due to traffic outside (I'm a light sleeper so wearing ear plugs would have stopped this!)
The cottage was lovely and cosy but felt very spacious over 3 floors. The beds were very comfortable, and the bathrooms were to a high quality. The cottage is in a very central location to the town, as well as Abbey Gardens which is lovely to have a stroll around. The welcome pack of muffins, juice, tea and coffee was a nice touch. Would definitely recommend and return in the future.

NorwayThere was an over powering, artificial smell of an air freshener in the house. We found the source and had to put the scented sticks in the back yard. The house is very clean and these were unnecessary and rather oppressive extras. Also, there was no hand soap in either of the bathrooms which was very inconvenient. This is a highly priced property and the least you expect is to be able to wash your hands on arrival. Be aware that the property is on a main road so you can hear the sound of traffic from inside. The provision of crockery is very minimal.
This was the perfect, cosy, comfortable retreat. It is beautifully designed and so spacious. The bathroom was an extra luxury and what with being able to enjoy a deep, hot bath and a powerful cold shower in the same room, it was an excellent alternative to the spa hotel we had considered to stay at! 😊 It was lovely to be able to enjoy the little backyard with its comfortable garden furniture. Great coffee making facilities. The owner was very friendly and responded very quickly in all communications and he kindly agreed to us extending our stay and to a late check out. The location couldn’t be better what with Abbey Gardens and the lovely river walk minutes from the front door.

United KingdomWhat a superb find, the cottage is in a perfect location, close to restaurants and cafes right in the centre of town. As we had sunny weather we really enjoyed sitting in the courtyard garden and going into Abbey Gardens which is right behind the cottage. We loved the decor of the cottage which has been done to a high spec, really comfy beds and the en suite bathroom an added luxury. We were left a lovely welcome basket with tea, coffee for the coffee machine, biscuits and local apple juice which was a lovely touch. Look forward to returning next time we are in Bury.
