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.).

AustraliaNothing, it was a good stay. Worth booking breakfast in the café downstairs as it gets very busy.
A beautiful historic setting, cottage was quaint and a comfortable place for a short stay.

United KingdomParking might be a problem With the exception of the Queens and Castle, the local pubs stop serving food at 6pm on a Sunday
Beautiful, well appointed apartment. Located across the road from the castle which was the focus of our stay. Daniel, the owner is extremely helpful and quickly ironed out the glitch in our stay - namely the people staying in the additional apartment had taken both sets of keys, despite very clear instructions to leave the other set in the key safe.

United KingdomAwkward to get into the doors at the bottom given how they open. Can be hard to park close to the flat. A couple of the bulbs in the bedroom/sitting room were near the end of their life and flickered.
Excellent location and well equipped flat. Easy to access using the lockbox and quiet generally. Kitchen with oven and hob. Great TV.

United KingdomEntering the property is a bit of a squeeze, especially with luggage - the main door open inwards onto a uPVC inner door which opens outwards immediately within; luckily we are not big people, but it's a bit of a squeeze even with a small bag! I hadn't appreciated that the flat shared a (creaky) main staircase with another flat, the internal entrance being directly opposite - not a major issue but I had wrongly assumed it was an individual location when booking. Just something to bear in mind. The apartment is very well equipped but a couple of things would have given it an extra 'star'... There was no plug for the kitchen sink nor a washing up bowl - so a bit of a fuss to wash up The shutters for the two main windows are good, but there are two high-up windows without - meaning it was very light in the room quite early (by 7am). The duvet was very lightweight and, although we found a spare sheet, an extra blanket would have been a nice touch. These are honestly minor - hopefully constructive - quibbles, and overall it was a very pleasant stay, albeit by necessity too short.
Very nice location in old part of village. This was a flying visit for us so would have liked to explore more. The apartment is well-equipped with a good kitchenette, and the main living / sleeping room is lovely, extremely spacious and airy with its high ceiling. Bathroom is well presented. Although the host was not present, the instructions and notes beforehand were very clear and helpful. The parking situation is not too much of a hassle despite being 2 hours max 8am-8pm every day (inc sunday) - we managed to park on Elizabeth Way very nearby.

United KingdomThere are uncovered sky light type windows in the room so as a light sleeper this meant I was woken up very early as soon as it became light.

United KingdomStorage. Only a very small wardrobe that was stuffed with a duvet for the spare sofa bed and a massive set of drawers that had all sorts of linen taking up almost every drawer.
Plenty of space and well equipped. Excellent location in the historic part of Kenilworth. Plenty of options for eating and drinking within walking distance.

We had a truly special stay here, perfect for what we needed. Location couldn’t have been more convenient- parking everywhere, literally next door to a cafe and pub, castle across the street, excellent communication from host, had tea, coffee, and milk ready.

United KingdomStairs up to the apartment are quite steep so might not suit anyone with mobility problems.
This is a great little apartment with a fabulously comfortable double bed and a sofa bed. The kitchen and bathroom are modern and very clean. In fact I think the kitchen is the best equipped I've ever experienced in a rental property. Location is great too - right opposite Kenilworth castle and next to a couple of lovely cafes, restaurant and a pub!! The host also responded really quickly too to any queries I had prior to arrival. Overall a great stay.

United KingdomIt was three of us so I was supposed to be sleeping on the sofa bed. When the sofa bed opens up/sets up at night, the people sleeping on the main bed would have it super difficult to go to the bathroom as the sofa is in a way. The sofa bed is also very uncomfortable and the soft part of it when opened up didnt look very pleasing to eyes. I slept on the floor instead. We picked up the keys easily but there were other people staying in the house as well, in different flats. When we got back around midnight, someone locked the little door latch safety button from inside. We kept banging the door, calling the two numbers given for long time and panicking we will need to sleep outside. After 30 minutes screaming at the street a man from top floor finally came down and unlocked it from inside. My parents are 62 so I really didnt want this stress for them. I also woke up with a massive spider on my shoulder at 5am, I caught it in a glass and let out but was worried to sleep after that. I know this is not the owners problem. Spiders can be anywhere, the place was otherwise spotless but the clutch button should be removed or disabled as it was quite a scary experience and wouldn't wish it to anyone. The two numbers texted/ called back after a longer while to check on us. So that is good.
Beautiful little flat. Great location, free parking nearby, cafes and restaurants walking distance, nice park with a lake and sightseeing nearby too
