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 KingdomIf I had to write a negative, the only thing that comes to mind is that there were several builders nails on the designated parking space. This is obviously not great if they were to have embedded themselves into our tyres. Fortunately, my husband spotted them before this happened. I realise this is only a minor problem but it could have been a very costly ending to what was an extremely good stay.
A very comfortable property, close to the city centre, off road private parking.

United KingdomAs the house was rented out for 5 adults, we thought that an extra lounge chair would have been good for sitting around comfortably. We had to bring a chair down from one of the bedrooms. We also brought down some side tables and lamps from the bedrooms for the lounge. The fire was not working and the downstairs was very chilly our first evening but the hosts brought an electric fire around straightaway. It was a shame about the fire, which looked like it hasn't been working for a while.
For us - it was the ability to split the double beds into single beds but one room did lack a little space but we were there only for a weekend so it did not really matter.

United KingdomSome of the beds in the property had very firm mattresses, making them kind of uncomfortable (in our personal opinions). This wouldn't be enough to put us off returning however, as everything else was fantastic.
Location was amazing, the property was extremely warm, cosy and convenient. It had everything we could have possibly needed, and the hosts were super accommodating and easy to contact. South House was very clean and beautifully presented. Perfect for 6 adults exploring the Winchester Christmas Markets!

United KingdomThe car parking space was very tight. So unfortunately we couldn't make use of this.
The property was in a perfect location. The hosts were amazing, popped by the first evening to check all was OK. Had an issue with the underfloor heating not working in one of the bedrooms. They came over and sorted whilst we were out. The house had everything we needed and was great for our girlie weekend.

United KingdomNot a huge deal at all however my father-in-law is elderly and has a dodgy hip, and the stairs didn't have carpet so he was concerned about slipping. I thought I'd mention it should anyone else be in this situation, but this is the only slight negative I could say about the property.
Fantastic location! Very well equipped kitchen, comfy beds and lovely showers.

United KingdomIn the shower and bath it would be handy to have a grab rail or two. The house is set back from a busy road so there is noise from the road if you open a window but there are air con units . You are not on the road itself as it is a turning off.
The house is very convenient and comfortable. Five minute walk from the station plus parking for two cars. Small area to sit on the terrace. Well equipped kitchen and comfortable living area. Would go again .Hosts very helpful.

United KingdomThe off-road parking space was largely unusable as it was very tight and impossible to park alongside the other car. However, the permit provided for street parking was very useful and we were able to park on the street a few minutes walk away from the apartment. The TVs only seemed to provide 2 channels and the signal broke up frequently - couldn't find any instructions about the televisions.
Location was great - very short walk to centre of town. Good facilities - kitchen was very well stocked with utensils and appliances. Good, clear instructions left for everything. Hosts popped round on first evening to say hello.

United KingdomParking was tricky at times but you do have the option of using the carpark next to the property as you have access to a parking permit which for larger cars i would recommend . (It's certainly a very good idea )
Location and standard of the accommodation . Owners were very welcoming and one had the impression that nothing would be too much of a problem . We liked it so much we have booked to return later in the year
