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 KingdomMobile phone and network coverage is not great but they can't do anything about that and the point of going to a peaceful location is to try and switch off

United Kingdom-there was nowhere to dry our clothes on wet days,a dryer is a must -I was expecting the basic tea coffee and sugar in the kitchen but that wasn't the case,would have been nice to have the few basics in the kitchen. - there was no welcome hamper,I'm only saying because there's a hamper on one of the photos and some of the reviews also commented on how they received a welcome hamper,I did actually expect one so that was disappointing. - not enough towels provided,I asked for more and the host was nice enough to say she would see if she could bring me some more but I never saw her again Overall we enjoyed our stay but these things do make a difference.
- lovely location -views absolutely amazing -hot tub was great -spacious accommodation -beds were comfy

United KingdomThe facilities could do with updates, a couple of things where broken or just very old. I didn’t want to use the hot tub because it was majorly over looked, there was a time limits on the use of it also.
The views where amazing. The house was very child friendly.

United Kingdom2 out of 4 bedrooms were cold at night - even with rest of bungalow being very warm. Mattresses on double beds weren't very comfortable and probably in need of updating as they sagged in middle a fair bit!
Location was amazing. Hot tub fantastic. Warm, friendly greeting and property was brilliant, especially kitchen and living areas.

Loads of space, 4 large bedrooms and 2 large bedrooms. the kitchen living area was open plan which was great for me and my 4 friends. Every window you looked out of provided breathtaking views. The whole place was spotless including the garden/hot tub area and Meryl and Rebecca were fantastic. The local pub is a stone throw away from the property.

United KingdomHouse was a little cold in the evening in the bedrooms. With no control of central heating.
The location was absolutely spot on for the scenery and quietness. We stayed as a group of 6 for my partners birthday weekend. I expecially enjoyed the views from the hot tub. The host was very friendly and helpful. The house was a very good size and flowers outside in the garden were a beautiful touch. Brilliant stay thank you will be defiantly returing.

United KingdomThe master bedroom mattress was a little basic but OK. The SKY box is pretty old but works.
The location is stunning; a hidden away little jewel which offers complete peace and tranquillity. The walks in the hills around are terrific, even if the paths are a bit obscured in some places. We would love to return and would have no hesitation in recommending this bungalow and it's owner. The bungalow is new and comes with a terrific kitchen and living room. It is outstanding compared to a lot of holiday lets. The owner is lovely and lives next door.
