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 KingdomLack of USB sockets.
Just as it said on the tin, LUXURY in a perfect location. Kitchen fully equipped with top quality gadgets and everything in pristine condition. We loved sitting in the bay window watching the world go by. Lounge, bedroom and bathroom equally luxurious. We’ll be back.

United StatesWhat's not to like? Hard to find fault with this lovely place. If I had to say anything, and it did not matter to us but know that it is on the second floor and there is no elevator.
The apartment was very spacious and well turned out with modern conveniences. It seems every aspect was 'top-shelf', from the toaster and water kettle, dimmer lighting in every room, big streaming TV, great Wifi, security, clothes washer and drier, and large collection of DVDs. The breakfast nook overlooks the village and the Windrush river where you can watch the ducks while you eat. While breakfast was not included, there were scones with clotted cream, a loaf of bread, butter and other essentials included in the kitchen that are not usually provided. Plenty of Nespresso capsules, tea and fully stocked kitchen. In the city center, close to everything, and to the bus stop where you can easily visit other Cotswald standouts such Bibury, Stow on the Wold, Moorton on Marsh and you can have a nice walk to Upper and Lower Slaughter. We were basically blown away by the value - I would be surprised if you can find a better place in Bourton on the Water. The hosts were helpful, friendly and gracious and run the Cotwolds Perfumery on the lower level.

United KingdomParking is a bit awkward upon first arrival. You have to try to find a parking space outside the shop/ apartment, and it is pot luck if you get one. It is also tight and very busy in and around the few parking bays that are there. Once we were settled, we managed to use the free parking space provided at the back of the apartment.
Found the place easily and parked up to get the keys from the shop below the apartment. Staff in the shop were very friendly and took us upstairs where they gave us a tour of the apartment. We then unpacked the car and the holiday began. The apartment is absolutely fantastic. Spacious, top-end comfort, exceptionally clean and tidy. And so central to the main part of the village. We loved every minute of our stay.
