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 KingdomAmazing getaway in Cornwall, we loved feeling like you were out in nature but with all the luxury home comforts. The place is very private, with a beautiful field as the backdrop where you can sit back and watch the cows and pheasants and listen to the birds singing. The bed was extremely comfortable, lovely bathroom, hot tub, dome, and pizza oven! The dome is great because even if the weather isn't on your side, you could enjoy some al-fresco dining in there with the log burner on. We met Tim on arrival and he showed us around, letting us know how to work everything which was extremely useful. There were also scones with clotted cream and jam waiting for us, which we loved having for breakfast the next morning (lovely little touch). It's short walk down into Polperro centre, where we enjoyed eating and drinking in the pubs and having a pasty (or two). We would absolutely recommend this place to anyone wanting a relaxing break away in beautiful Cornish fishing village!

Good peaceful location just outside the village with a short walk to the village centre. A bit of an uphill climb back from the village but well worth the effort. Great set up. Shepherd Hut very well presented with everything you need for your stay. Hot tub amazing. Enjoyed the outdoor living space. The outdoor pod is perfect for those chilly nights or to enjoy breakfast in the sunshine. Also, the bbq, outdoor kitchen and pizza oven enhanced our stay. The Pizza oven is a must and we were very pleased with our pizzas. Thank you Helen & Tim for being great hosts and also for the lovely scones & clotted cream on our arrival.

United KingdomNothing! Everything was wonderful!
Helen and Tim were the perfect hosts. The hut and surroundings are stunning, so relaxing and private. The hut itself was spotless! Everything you could need inside. A small Christmas tree and lights were a lovely festive touch! Excellent location, just a 5 min walk to Polperro. The furnishings inside and out are fabulous. It was so cosy with great attention to detail. Parking is at the bottom of the steps outside the hut. Allowing us to unload our car with ease. We loved our stay and would highly recommend it! 10/10! Thank you! 😊

United KingdomEverything was excellent, however the bed was slightly uncomfortable and the linen wasn’t as soft we liked, but that’s just a personal preference, nothing worth complaining about as our stay was unique and it was amazing to have privacy under the stars. Carol & Paul
A great little retreat, hidden gem in Properro. The hot tub was amazing, everything we needed in the Shepherds hut. Hosts are lovely and very accommodating.

United KingdomI can't really think of anything that we didn't like. Everything was really nice. From the welcome cupcakes & scones to the decor of the place. Even the parking space was perfect. We were worried as we have a van, but even though it is quite big and bulky there was space for it.
It is such a tranquil and private little place. You could switch off from the daily stress back at home. No neighbours to overlook your property, no noise just really nice. Everything you could possibly need and more is provided (e.g. bathrobes which was a really nice thing to have).
