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.).

GhanaThe pedestrian passage along the house makes you mindful of your every move in the house. There should be two layers of curtains in the bedrooms to help improve your privacy.
Location was fine. Within walking distance from everything and close to the bus stop as well.

United KingdomIf you ask my wife she had no complaints. What I would say is I was not particularly pleased with the process of booking. I requested an early check-in which was denied. But.... I'm 57 and have visited a few places around the globe, and never has the check-in been 5pm, never 9:30am checkout. For the money, which to me was expensive my to my wife value for money I was put off by the inflexibility and the fact that I had multi emails repeating the same - no you can't have early check in (I wanted 2pm) and rules. It felt very formal and not in the least "warmly welcoming". May I conclude by saying very comfortable, but a bit clinical. Don't let my delight in excellent hosting put you off however.
The location and cleanliness excellent. We enjoyed our stay

United KingdomThe main bedroom was cold as the radiator was broken and there was no heating in the kitchen. The parking is a real problem as there isn't a designated spot and the cottage is on a hairpin bend. Good job I have such a small car. If you want privacy, this is not the property for you, as it's positioned on a thoroughfare, with a fair bit of foot traffic. This made our dogs bark, quite a lot. Worst of all were the check in and out times! 5pm check in and 9am check out. This was not made clear before booking but was sent with confirmation with a note that this cannot be amended. Quite unreasonable. Sykes cottages, who manage this property were unresponsive to my messages.
A really cute and very homely property. We loved the 3 storey layout and the lounge area with views. Clean and comfortable.

United KingdomSadly the property was very damp and had a terrible smell throughout. We had to use the dehumidifier constantly and it took several days to stop everything feeling damp. The mattresses were very uncomfortable. The toilet seat was loose. The flooring upstairs was extremely dangerous as it was so slippery. We had to put the heating on to help dry out the property and that made such a racket it was like a pneumatic drill!!
Location was great for town, however there was constant noise from people walking by.
