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.).

JamaicaBunk bed was very squeaky, water leaking in shower that soaked floor, but the main issue that could have been very dangerous was opposite neighbours guard dog rottweilers that somehow managed to escape, and were prowling outside our property trying to get in. This issue was relayed to owner Pat, and hopefully neighbour will ensure guard dogs are tethered at night or improve fencing to prevent rottweilers from roaming unsupervised.
Nice price, Nice garden, nice owner, nice latonya, nice room with a fridge. Did want to stay an extra night.

AustriaThe flat that my friend and I stayed in the walls need painting and the linens were not clean. The Flat was not properly aired before our arrival and so it smelled really musty and damp, however the furnishing was tasteful to an extent. meaning the although they were old and worn furnitures they looked ok.My stay
Thanks Pat! The hostess was very nice and available to answer questions or concerns. The location was very quiet and I love the vegetation on the property it felt like my home there.

United StatesWe checked into (triple) room C but didn't expect only the bathroom lights to be functional. We had to navigate the room in partial darkness. The retractable sun shade/blinds across from the bed and the air conditioner need attention. The shower had some maintenance work done prior to our arrival. The result? Wet and dirty shoe prints in the shower, on bathroom floor and broken pieces of the tile all over. Not safe, and was not attended to up to our check-out. The bedroom needed to be swept. The occupants across the hall were loud and noisy during the supposed "quiet hours". Our complaints (in back and forth voice notes) felt like they were being met with excuses, redirected to other "absent staff" then sugar-coated with apologies. We checked out early from an original 2-nights stay. If you were in our shoes, wouldn't you want a refund? So, we asked and are awaiting a partial redund. Simple future practice: Be responsible for the price you charge by upholding quality. Regular/occasional inspections are a factor regardless.

United StatesSo old and dirty. Bathroom leaked, very noisy guests. Only one towel for 2 people, no one to talk to for an extra towel, so no shower that night. Ran out of toilet paper and no extra rolls. But you get what you pay for.
Good location. Room was spacy. Beds were good.

Well I am back again. Love this place. Has everything I need, location, equipment, views, shops, transport etc... Can't go wrong.. My children loved the balcony and the fruit trees. Melody and Pat were always at hand to help. The family room was huge and a bonus extra room. I was spoilt for choice with beds.
