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 property is a lovely, cosy apartment in the perfect location for a quiet weekend. We went for some beautiful walks around the Beacons so this property was perfect for that. Exceptionally clean and the kitchen had all of the essentials and more. Breakfast, snacks and delicious fresh bread. It has been such a warm and welcoming night away for us. David the host was very helpful and welcoming. Will definitely return if we’re back in the area.

United KingdomGreat location in Talgarth and only a 15 minute easy drive to Brecon. The room was a in a self contained building which was good for privacy, very clean and comfortable. Nice big bed with memory foam mattress so great for a good night's sleep. Free WiFi and packing. Only a few minute walk to the main shops in Talgarth and I'd recommend the bridge end pub which is just at the end of the street. Definitely recommend and would without a doubt use again. Owners were very friendly and helpful. They provide a continental style breakfast in the kitchen and is stocked to everyday.

United KingdomAt such short notice we were pleased to find this lovely room to stay in after our long trip from Coventry to Cornwall to north wales. We decided to stay over in South Wales for a well earned rest. We arrived late which wasn’t a problem with the owner, he was very welcoming and had excellent communication with us when we got a little lost. The room it’s self was very clean, well presented and was just what we needed to re energise us to continue our journey to north wales and then back to Coventry. Breakfast and facilities were such a lovely touch to the stay which we were both very pleased with. My partner is 32 weeks pregnant and we couldn’t have asked for a more better place to stay, the bed & pillows were very comfortable. We were glad to find there was WiFi as our signal had not been great for the journey we were able to catch up and communicate with loved our ones back home and let them know we were stopping for the evening. We both said we would return for a break away for a few days to be able to explore the town and enjoy the room more, which we will look into in the new year. Everything was to a very high & clean standard. Breakfast provided couldn't have been any better. Cannot say anything bad. Thankyou for a great stay with outstanding facilities and a very welcoming owner who couldn’t do enough for us! It made our journey a lot less stressful.

United KingdomThe couple were friendly and helpful, and nothing was too much trouble to do. The supplies and choices for the continental breakfast were very good, and a little personal touch was added with wine (although we not really drinkers) and a bar of chocolate. The most important part was it being self-contained and clean as we are a vulnerable couple currently.

United KingdomThe blinds let all the light in so pack an eye mask if light sensitive. Being close to a road you can hear the odd car but nothing I couldn’t sleep to. I will be going back again!
Pictures are accurate of the accommodation. We stayed 4 days and there are plenty of local walks from the doorstep and others a short distance in the car. Walking distance to coop, butchers, bakery, fish and chips and Indian food (recommend the Indian). Well located on good roads if you don’t like single track. Host was friendly and enjoyed the selection of local food they offered. You make your own breakfast which worked for us perfectly. A real treat to have a dressing gown in a room!

United KingdomFor the advertised river/mountain view you would have to crane out of the kitchen window!
Due to Covid restrictions a large and varied amount of food for breakfast was left in the apartment (with microwave etc if required). This sufficed for an evening picnic meal as well since all local restaurants were either closed or fully booked. Very friendly/informative (if non-Covid-aware) host. Comfortable bed (although space to one side was tight).
