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 KingdomThere is nothing to dislike about the property.
After a long drive from northern England and feeling a little weary we arrived to find the Little Barn beautifully decorated for Christmas. It was warm and cosy and we immediately felt at home,the beautiful Christmas tree and decorations made us feel welcome. The barn has been tastefully converted, with some interesting features. The kitchen is very well equipped although a small freezer would be useful for longer stays. The main bathroom has an excellent walk in shower. The bedrooms have plenty of storage space and the beds oh so comfortable, we slept very well. The location is perfect, the pretty village of St Hilary is 10 minutes from Cowbridge which has always been a favourite of ours. An interesting Main Street with shops galore including Waitrose (am I allowed to mention that) numerous restaurants and pubs. Set in the beautiful Vale of Glamorgan, and with good access to the M4 there are numerous places of interest to visit. The cosmopolitan city of Cardiff, Penarth a lovely Victorian town where you can walk along the promenade and enjoy the views across the Bristol Channel. Beautiful clean beaches at Porthcawl and Ogmore and further afield the Gower Peninsula with its stunning coastline. The list is endless. From the time of booking, Lucy our host has been so helpful and very easy to communicate with. We wish we could have stayed longer and we will certainly return.

NetherlandsA dimmer on the living room lights would make it more cozy. Or 1 or 2 additional table or floor lamps.
Fantastic newly rebuild accomodation, really professional construction work! Very comfortable beds, nice bathroom, well equiped kitchen. And a lot of space! St. Hilary is a lovely small village with a very good restaurant. Cowbridge nearby is also a beautiful town, with lots of nice shops and a few good restaurants.

Self-catering, good instructions to nearest town for supplies. Ideal location for the family wedding we were attending at Coed Hills Art venue. Only stayed for two nights, so weren't able to take advantage of things to do locally. Ideal for two couples or as in our case, my elderly parents and myself. Everything on one level and parking right outside the door.

United KingdomTV in front room did not have much of a choice of channels. The bedroom one had a far better choice so would have preferred that in the front room.
Beautiful barn conversion. Just a car drive from lots of attractions. If you wanted to walk, there was a pub in the village which did meals (not open every day). Cowbridge a short drive and lots of places to eat.

The whole experience staying at The Little Barn. The converted barn is just beautiful! High beam ceilings and very modern country feel to the whole apartment. It's just beautiful and so welcoming. Plenty of towels and extra bedding available. Well equipped kitchen area. Stunning bathroom with shower. The owners Ed and Liz are just amazing. It's been so lovely learning about the farm, thank you for taking the time to talk to us. We had 2 children with us and they were allowed to see and feed the animals on the farm. It was so humble being on a working farm with quite spectacular views. Close to the town of cowbridge and just 20 minutes drive from Barry Island beach. We definitely did not want to leave the barn and will most definitely be retuning. Thank you for such beautiful memories in such a short space of time. We can not recommend the little barn enough.

United KingdomTV had very limited channels. Only BBC of the main channels. Would have liked fridge to have small freezer compartment. We were only staying for a couple of days so not really an issue but if we'd been staying for a week and cooking every day would have been. Would have appreciated more instructions left in the house. No idea how heating or log burner worked, didn't really want to keep phoning owner. Felt it was a bit overpriced.
very spacious and comfortable. Lovely area.
