How guest reviews work
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):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
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.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
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.).

We were very happy with everything.
The first floor apartment was in a very quiet location & only a short walk to the seafront & local shops. Roadside parking is available -we found ample space without difficulty. The rooms of the apartment are all very clean, well maintained, centrally heated & comfortable with all appliances provided. Everything visitors would need with a few goodies waiting for you on arrival. We enjoyed a very pleasant stay & would certainly recommend to all others, in fact, we hope to return when visiting the area again.

A little confusing to work out which was the right key box for the apartment keys. Didn't have much call to have much communication with hosts, but what we did was fine. Very nice homely spacious apartment. Unfortunately due to family circumstances we weren't able to make the first night of a 2 night stay but it would definitely have been a good chilled out place to stay a few days. Easy enough walk to restaurants, train station, pubs, cliff lifts and beach

Great location close to lots of bars, pubs, cafes and restaurants within 10 minutes walk. Plus the beach and pier very close by. Got parked up easily every-time and no on street parking charges a bonus too! Very good communication from hosts and are very attentive with glass bottle milk, tea, coffee, & a bag of chocolates supplied ‘just because’ were a great touch. The flat is cosy and well decorated very clean. Very comfy bed. Would use again for any possible future visits! We went for a relaxing mid week break and we had no issues relaxing in this accommodation.

Not sure why but the TV date in front room was wrong, about 3 weeks previous so couldn't get the guide to work to see what was on, looked but couldn't change date for some reason. Only other thing was we took fish and chips back and didn't have any vinegar 🤣 which is a minor thing but would be good to have in cupboard.
Lovely place, very clean and communication with hosts excellent. Great parking, right outside. Everything you could need in kitchen etc, even shampoo and conditioner etc provided.

We booked this lovely apartment very last minute. The host Rob met us to hand over keys and show us around. Perfect location with the sea to one side and the town to the other side. Plenty of on street parking. Tea, coffee, fresh milk and a bar of chocolate most welcome after our late check in too! There's shampoo, conditioner in the shower and a hair dryer as well, although we always take our own. Super comfy bed. Would recommend Number 23 which is a lovely dog friendly bar servicing gorgeous pizzas which is only 5 minutes walk away. Will definitely stay at Driftwood again. :)
