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 KingdomNothing, it was amazing.
We could not say enough about this place. It is absolutely beautiful. Spotlessly clean, comfortable, beautifully decorated, well stocked with all the utilities you might need and…talk about location! Wow!! Would go back here in a heartbeat and couldn’t recommend it enough. We came here for our 15 year wedding anniversary and were so happy that we did. Couldn’t have asked for a nicer place to spend it. Jaimie and Martin’s hospitality was incredible.

United KingdomNo large/tall mirror in bedroom area and no plug socket for hair dryer. More clothes hanging space - one short 5inch wooden pole might be enough for 1-2 day stop ... but for a week it's useless. We were not sure where the under floor heating was meant to be other than in the bathroom? We have an Air Source Heat Pump (ASHP) at home and the recommendation from our Heating Engineer is to NOT to use a Timer/Schedule to alter room temperatures as the ASHP takes at least 4hrs to heat a room ... Heating Engineer strongly recommends to set thermostats to 21c and if you need it higher or lower then the ASHP can cope with this.
The location was amazing .. zero light pollution; 20yards to the Beach (pebbles not sand, in case anyone is thinking of a spanish beach); fantastic and powerful shower, and my 5' 2" wife loved he the bath, but a tad small for me at 6' tall. There was easily two spaces for parking; Air Source Heat Pump; fast WiFi internet connection ( i think provided by StarLink on a pole between the two cottages). I liked the communications from Jamie on a daily basis - is everything ok?

Very nice little welcome hamper. Stunning location and impeccable property with beautifully understated Christmas decorations. Also being pet friendly was a huge bonus - there's not many gorgeous properties like this that allow dogs. Overall a fabulous stay and would definitely book again.

United KingdomThe Wreck is fabulous, Jamie and her family have put huge thought into designing and furnishing the cottage. The inside is spacious and the bathroom is huge! Everything was excellent quality and where possible Scottish/local; right down to the books on the well-stocked bookshelf. A real bonus was that the fridge had some food goodies on arrival so I could make my own breakfast. The Northern Lights were on display while I stayed and Jamie kindly phoned to tell me so I could photograph them. It was lovely watching the ferries and boats on their way to/from Ullapool Harbour and otherwise quiet and peaceful with the waves lapping on the shore. The Wreck is a luxurious retreat or the ideal base for exploring the West Coast.

United KingdomI couldn’t find the pen to write in the guest book which I really wanted to do to look back on when we next come up. Maybe the previous guest took it or maybe there never was one. A box of pens would be good but not essential haha!
To put it bluntly I liked everything. I last toured the NC500 in 2019 and I don’t believe this accommodation was here in that time. Covid and everything else this has been my first time back up the west coast. We were away on our honeymoon and we were booking day to day and winging it. I let the owner know and I asked if I could order a sunset for the night knowing fine well it was bucketing down. On arrival the owner had left us a card congratulating us with a picture of a sunset. This place is the best place I have ever stayed on the NC500 and I’ve been touring it since before it was famous. The location is stunning and the accommodation is just out of this world. From the bed to the heating and the power shower. We also stayed at the Harbour Lights waterside cabin which was more expensive but was cheaper in design and interior. We will be back at The Wreck And Ruin without a doubt and we will stay longer as it was absolutely perfect. It should definitely be more expensive than it is and if the owners decide to put the price up I would not hesitate to pay it. We are in our 30’s I would like to think we will be back plenty of times in the future. Thank you for making our honeymoon so special with your amazing place!

United KingdomWe stayed in the ruin and it did not disappoint it was so cosy and modern with everything you would need for the perfect relaxing break away. It was so peaceful and quiet with outstanding views looking over Loch broom, which happened to be the place where my partner proposed to me it was the most special moment in the most special of places we can’t wait to come back and stay again to share more amazing memories in this special little place.
