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.).

AustraliaLovely continental breakfast that kept us going for most of the day. Fruit, fresh bread, pastry, jams, cheese team and coffee. Breakfast was self serve on the deck. The B&B is casual, stylish and very comfortable with a lovely outdoor area for dining or relaxing. Walking distance to town and restaurants etc. Friendly and very helpful host.

United StatesWell, you will want to sign up for the air conditioning during the hot season (I was there in Feb). I didn't because I thought it was more expensive than it was, but it was needed.
Very nice place, good common areas, helpful owners, nice room, hot shower....

United StatesPerhaps a fan on the gazebo - but I think that’s a very minor point!
Continental breakfast was good - I came to breakfast toward the end of the serving time and the staff made a fresh pot of coffee for me. Easy walking to the market and waterfront.

FranceThe only negative facet is that it's difficult to find the house!
The owner was really nice! She kindly booked a taxi to the airport for me and prepared breakfast in early morning. The bed room and common area looked lovely. Even though the property is not close to water, just staying in this Tahitian room would be valuable. You need to pay on site but you can use credit cards.

Supermarket is across the street. Rental car is near by. Also, she allowed us to store our luggages in her lobby and use her living room with A/C on while we were waiting for our night flight. Highly recommended..you will be so happy to stay here.

United StatesThere was nothing of my accommodations that I didn't like. However, since the humidity is in the high 80s, I would consider adding air conditioning to my reservation.
Martine and Georgy were wonderful hosts, going out of their way to make my Tahiti stay a memorable visit. Breakfast offered local tropical fruits that I much appreciated. I particularly liked hanging out in the outdoor gazebo in the afternoon drinking the local Tahitian beer.

I really liked staying at Fare d'hotes. It is a converted single family home. It has a local feel in a residential area. You can walk downtown in 15-20 minutes. The ownwer is there quite a bit and always ready to help and provide recommendations.
