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.).

AustraliaIt was located at the pub car park where cars parked at the door.. Very tiny. We were very isolated with no car. Not what I thought when booking as I booked for pre cruise not realizing so far from Southhampton.
I would rate 5/10 The owner was nice and obliging. The cafe on the water had excellent breakfast. Pub had decent menu and good food. Very old, but clean.

United KingdomIt was great to have a fridge/microwave/kettle etc, but pretty difficult to fill the kettle up with water and clean the plates/cups in the small bathroom sink.
The level of quality, comfort and cleanliness was exceptional. Everything you need for an overnight stay and the seating outside area at the back was so cute. The shower & toilet were beautifully decorated and the bed was super comfy.

United KingdomCramped toilet. And general state of the facilities
The hosts were very friendly & gave us full privacy. The place itself was quite small so beware if you are taller than 6"0!. It sits just outside of the pub carpark and next to the pub garden. We stayed on the Thursday night so it was very quiet. We went on a little walk through the gate belonging to the hosts, which was lovely. Unfortunately, when we came back and we were about to go in the pool, I discovered a dead mouse surrounded by loads of dead bees so we decided to not go in. Which was disappointing as this was one of the main reasons for taking our trip. The bed was very comfy and the place had everything we needed for a one night stay.

A nice little place with everything you need for a comfortable night, including good facilities and complimentary coffee, toiletries, and towels etc. There is free parking right outside the door, and the local pub is literally on the other side of the carpark for great food and beers. Our host was very friendly and helpful throughout.

United KingdomObviously space is limited, so travelling light works best...how to incorporate some facility for clothes storage... Though we just moved things from the front door, door hooks to the shower hooks.... Just a little niggle was the toilet seat....seemed like it could have/should fit better🤔
Quirky little place, ideal for a couple of days as a base. You're literally in the carpark of a pub, which was nice! Selda is such a lovely lady, nothing too much trouble.

United KingdomA small wash up bowl and tea towel would have been helpful to wash the crockery used, as sink tiny and round. My concern was that they had not been washed properly by previous guests for this reason. If owners do the washing and replace then a little notice saying this had been done for hygiene reasons would give peace of mind. This was only thing I disliked
