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 was nothing i didnt like, there is a noisy unit behind the bedroom which came on and off all the time but once used to it didn't disturb sleep too much.
For 2 people it is very spacious. There were many great little touches like milk in fridge and complimentary cereals and chocolate. Beautiful location. Pub next door that served fantastic food. Great friendly staff. Cottage was lovely. Cant wait to go back.

United KingdomThe accommodation is very close to the Hadrian Wall path and provided a self contained modern apartment (open plan living space and kitchen with adjoining bedroom) adjacent to the pub with the luxury of a hot bath at the end of a long days walk. The pub itself is highly recommended with a good selection of beers and a hearty meal. Mandy the owner provided tea, coffee milk etc. plus a selection of breakfast cereals and snacks for the next day which was unexpected but much appreciated thank you.

United KingdomA small cottage, perfectly suitable for us, a retired couple. Very clean with good quality furniture. The Milecastle Inn is a good, friendly pub serving very good food, the sea bass was excellent and lunchtime sandwiches very good! Lovely walking area, with a lovely walk to Haltwhistle on a path through woodland.

United KingdomWe liked all of it, including our friendly host and the open countryside that surrounds the property.
I would recommend this to anyone looking to explore/see visible sections of Hadrian's Wall and learn more about the Roman Occupation. The property proved to be a superb base for day trips, with features of the wall including Sycamore Gap, Vindolanda, Roman Army Museum, Housesteads Fort, The Sill and others being just a very short journey time away. The addition of a separate kitchen and seating area next to the bedroom made it an economical and relaxing choice for a retired couple to stay at, when compared to the cost of a hotel. Mile Castle 42 was visible from the seating area in the room and we felt that Northumberland proved to be genuinely encouraging to visitors.

United KingdomWe had some wifi problems - but understand that is more of a general issue for the area.
It was great that the facilities included both a coffee machine and ground coffee so that we could easily make proper coffee. The welcome basket and milk in the fridge was just what we needed. I loved the rocking armchair.

Perfect hosts, warm and welcoming. I was particularly thankful for their thoughtful, kind gesture to come and meet me as I was walking and still some distance away as it was starting to go dark, and walking along the busy road. Delicious meal in the pub, good home cooked food, traditional options (with a twist), all perfectly cooked. The very comfy bed was welcome and the apartment is as cosy as the advert says I would highly recommend this cosy apartment near Hadrian's Wall. Thank you for a nice stay.

United KingdomCleanliness could be better and most importantly the shower was warm at best, but not hot at all. This was also a complaint from others staying next door. Very noisy when adjoining room flushed the toilet or ran the water, generator from.the adjoining pub also made it very difficult to sleep.
Good location and adjoining pub serving great food, welcome box was a nice touch.
