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 KingdomA few old pieces of furniture & a mattress in the garden, would look nicer without them there.
Room was well presented, clean & comfortable. The bathroom was luxurious, huge shower & jacuzzi bath. The kitchen had everything we needed & more! Lovely garden. The staff were very friendly & helpful & kept everything spotless. Will be coming again & have told friends in Germany to stay there too.

United Kingdomit was a little dusty in places and the room was very cold on arrival as the window had been left open. Also the shower overflowed into the bathroom, so drainage could be improved.
Very good value for money with a huge room and comfy bed. On a quiet road so slept very well. Nice touch to have tea and coffee in the room.

United KingdomIt was too hot in the bedroom and the window did not open very far. The mattress was very bouncy so one could feel every slight movement of one's partner, not that great for a good nights sleep.
The bathroom facilities were very good and the kitchen well appointed, though there did not seem to be any knives for eating with.

United KingdomThe mattress was adequate. Too soft for my wife and I. (that's a personal preference). Couldn't get the telly to work. A little bit of tic needed with the decoration (entry to kitchen area and doors jamming to room 1 and the bathroom) Where were all the forks in the kitchen drawers!
A shared property in a quiet residential street. The location was excellent for our purposes. The facilities were good. The fixtures and fittings are very good and the jacuzzi bath was a pleasant surprise. Good communication with the proprietors and easy access.

SwedenThin walls...could hear the neighbour snore. Only 1 bathroom and no schedule for booking the jacuzzi; if someone would use it there would be no other option for a toilet for the other rooms. You offered access to a bicycle on the website, but even though you confirmed one for me the owner said they have never had any bicycles....
Nice room and spacious and modern bathroom.

United KingdomThe headboard of the bed was loose and made noise whenever getting in and out. The bedroom door seems to have warped and is difficult to open.
The room was clean and although the facilities were shared, the stylish and modern bathroom was always in an exceptionally clean condition. The location was convenient for me and the room felt very secure. The aesthetic of the room was pleasant and there is a lot of storage for clothes and personal items. The room was very clean upon arrival and the bed was fairly comfortable.

United Kingdom4 pm check in and 10 am check out, i think is unfair but you did have the option to pay £10 per hour but we felt this was pricey. Also only one bathroom for 3 rooms.
The property is located central to everything you need by car. The property is in good condition and the kitchen is well stocked with everything you need to cook. bathroom was lovely when we arrived at 5 pm another couple used the jacuzzi and left it dirty so we were unable to use it :( Otherwise big bathroom and room was nice, bed mattress type is hard spring type but adequate for our stay. They provided tea and coffee which was appreciated. Parking was easy to find outside the property Very fast communication with host when we needed them.
