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 heating and water weren't turned on when we arrived as we had been led to believe they would be. We worked out how to get it all working without too much bother although the underfloor heating was a bit of a mystery (although it did work eventually). The door to the front bedroom could do with a bit shaved off the bottom. My friend said he thought an extractor fan in the bathroom would help (although opening the window is always an option, albeit a chilly one at this time of year). My friend also suggested a light above the bathroom sink to help when shaving, although the wall heater may make that a bit tricky. He also likes porridge in the morning but there were no non stick saucepans. It probably took longer to clean the pan than it did to make and eat the porridge. A proper bread knife would have been handy. There was just about enough glassware and mugs - a few more larger glasses wouldn't go amiss. The TV was fine although we'd never heard of Roku and having seen their product in action, we wouldn't rush to buy it ourselves. But these are just things that weren't major issues - just suggestions to think about.
Location was excellent. Property was as described on the site. No adverse surprises. We had an excellent weekend meeting family so didn't spend that long in the flat other than as a place to sleep. No complaints but some comments below intended to be helpful!

United KingdomThe property had scaffolding up and workmen were there at times and the lobby area has seen better days and could do with a spruce up but this didn’t spoil our trip or the overall stay.
location was great as right in the heart of Aberaeron, immediately from the front door access to the harbour area with plenty of bars, restaurants etc. The apartment was spacious with comfortable beds.

United KingdomAlthough the shower is new and has plenty of pressure and hot water, the shape of the bath means that you have to lean backwards to get wet. This felt unsafe in a wet bath. Would have been really great if basic condiments such as salt and pepper were included. A cafetiere would also have been appreciated. Not everyone likes pod coffee. An extra comfortable chair in the living area is needed. Only seats for 3 when it is a 4 person accommodation. These are only minor things. Overall, a great property.
Fantastic location, spotlessly clean, very comfortable beds, well equipped kitchen, warm. Close to everything you need for a great break. Easy check in and check out. Good communication.

United Kingdomthe bathroom could have been more modern but was fine. the surprise was the communal parts were tired. the wallpaper was in fine condition just not as modernised as the flat. don’t know if under same ownership but the window frame on ground floor by front door was in poor condition and didn’t reflect well on the flat above
once into the flat it was very nice. the bathroom has not been updated to the standard of the rest of the flat

United KingdomAlthough this bears no reflection on the apartment itself, it did sound like a herd of elephants started their rounds when the child upstairs woke at 6:30 - this was just in the front bedroom
We booked this apartment for a family wedding and the location was just perfect and many an hour was spent at the window looking at the view. Everything we needed was provided and clean and tidy. The host communicated well. We all agreed that it was a great stay

it’s position. light and airy (after climbing the musty smelling staircase to the door). comfortable bed but we felt we couldn’t use the front bedroom because of the danger of handling the stairs if needing to get up in the night. comfortable seating in lounge area. good to have free parking so close.

United KingdomCoffee making facilities are a minus – property supplies a Nespresso machine only but no pods; saying in the guide that I can buy them 16 miles drive away isn’t really acceptable; the team provided a small number of complimentary tabs after a chaser message but the response saying “no cafetiere” supposedly due to sink issues didn’t really make sense – loads of places provide cafetieres – maybe put a notice over the sink. Dishwashing and laundry – appreciate the space is small but with some rework and imagination it would be possible to fit both a washing machine (e.g. in airing cupboard) and dishwasher (under the sink). Not having either of these white goods for a week’s stay at this price is a bit disappointing and inconvenient. When chased, service provided a washing up bowl, J-cloths and tea towels but in a space without a dishwasher the provided handwashing tools should be top-notch from the outset. Similarly without a washing machine, a washbowl and proper drying rail which fits inside the bath is essential Minimal kitchen and serving facilities are quite a drawback; I appreciate that this is a holiday let, but would have been nice if if weren’t quite so basic, e.g. - Mugs, plates, cutlery and bowls were clearly the very cheapest sold in IKEA and not of an especially nice design; when cost-cutting is so evident it’s difficult to let other niggles pass without comment at this price; appreciate there might be breakages and you need to cover them , but if the stuff is nice people are likely to be more careful - Just having a bit of a range, say teacups / saucers, sugar bowl and jug would have made the place feel a bit more cosy and comfortable - Touches like Salt and pepper shakers, a few extra bowls and plates in different colours and styles would have been nice – even in a holiday let I don’t especially want to eat my dinner with the supermarket salt by my side.
View and location – unbeatable on all counts. Mattress and bedding in the rooms is of good quality and comfortable Nicely and simply styled throughout Sofa and lounge chairs comfortable and stylish Excellent selection of plastic storage boxes in the kitchen – very handy for keeping provisions and picnics Bath – not often to be found in new accommodation –definite plus Responsiveness of the team to addressing niggles during stay
