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 KingdomThe only thing we could say is that the fan in the en suite does stay on for quite a while after you turned the light off, which wasn't great especially when you were going to bed,
We liked the location, it was handy for the town. The house was fantastic, the hosts had supplied everything you could possibly need, from the kitchen crockery/utensils and the welcome pack of tea/coffee and biscuits to games and books, the beds were comfortable and the bedrooms had plenty of storage space. The house was warm and welcoming, and we would definitely recommend a stay here, we will be back.

United KingdomDue to the wet weather we were drenched and so a hot house and water was ideal with the clothes horse and radiators to dry enough of our clothes and shoes to wear the next day though it might be easier for a dryer although not necessary as the clothes horse worked well. The TV was a bit tempermental with volume though and it's on hdmi2 to watch TV.
The property is lovely and clean, being home from home. The owners have a great selection of books and activities for wet days. Our group of 6 have been walking the St Patrick's Way, and this walk as well as the Mourne Way and Newcastle Way just passes outside the development, which is ideal when walking from the mountains. The location is only 10 mins from the centre of Newcastle and the beach. The heating was great and hot water enough for 6 showers in a row, keeping the heat throughout. It is a lovely property.

United KingdomLovely clean towels, quiet location, of street parking, priced fairly, great information from Colin and Lorraine and Booking.com the view of the Mountains from the front of the house was simply stunning, Newcastle is a beautiful seaside town and a great place for a getaway.
Mournes Snug was everything and more that you could ask for, the location was nice and quiet, just out of town but only a short walk into the main Street and promenade, the house had every convenience and it was spotless and perfectly clean. We would highly recommend this beautiful home and will plan in the future to return, Thankyou Colin and Lorraine and Booking.com for a perfect break. Gail and Lawrence
