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.).
This service may contain translations powered by Google. Google disclaims all warranties related to the translations, express or implied, including any warranties of accuracy, reliability, and any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.

GermanyIt's very hard to find any negative aspects of our stay; however, if we had to mention something, it would be that we don't like instant coffee. It would have been nice to have high-quality ground coffee or a blender for making our own fruit juices. But these are just minor details that don't affect our overall assessment. Coffee and juices can be bought in the town everywhere :)
The cottage at the back was superb and quiet, with excellent apartment amenities including a sufficient kitchen (stove, oven, toaster, microwave, pots, plates, cutlery, fridge). Inside, there's a living room with a kitchen, a bedroom, and a bathroom. The free WiFi was very good for an island and despite staying with our 3-year-old child, we didn't hear any noise. It's close to the center and the ferry. Arthur picked us up and took our luggage and on our return, he directly dropped them off at the ferry. Arthur was very helpful, quickly addressing every request. It's a great place for sunset views. Severe beach just 3 minutes away by bike, and there is also bakery and shops nearby (3 min by a bike). Arthur helped us to rent bikes and did everything that we feel comfortable there. Very important for us was a washing machine. Just take some powder from home with you and you can wash your clothes, what is really helpful in a long-term journey. We really enjoyed our stay - our 3y. boy too. We highly recommend Villa Charette and thank you Arthur for everything!

FranceThe kitchen could be a bit better equipped (scissors, etc) but this is a minor point.
Loved the balcony- we could see both the sea and people passing along the street. Great location for exploring the island and going out for meals. The owner was kind and helpful and we appreciated the pick up at the jetty and late check out.

SwitzerlandThe bar across the street can be a little loud until 11pm, but it is hit or miss. It's not a big deal if you have a brown or white noise machine. This only applies to the units closest to the main street. The living room furniture was not the most comfortable, but it did the job!
Really loved the location of this villa. There are beaches that are within walking distance and are easily swimmable with clear waters. Arthur, the owner of the property, is a great host and the rest of the staff do a great job with the upkeep as well as the execution of their jobs. It is very close to many shops, beaches, bars and the overall ease of access is excellent. Really liked the appliances and fixtures in the villa as everything felt modernized. Definitely can have good meals and relax in this house as opposed to having to go out to eat all the time. Cooking, showering, doing laundry, hanging out on the balcony, everything was excellent.

SwitzerlandArthur together with Wendy were very kind and helpful and professional hosts during our stay. The apartments are very clean and well maintained. Nahid and Sita did a very good job in keeping our apartment clean and the garden tidy. We had a well equipment kitchen we all the tools we needed to cook and eat. Supermarkets for food are all very close reachable by bicycle. The apartment has an ideal location. It is 50m from a sandy beach and 450m from the jetty away. Arthur organized a pick-up from the jetty on arrival which was very helpful. For La Digue the best transport are bicycles. You can rent them on nearly every corner for approx. 150 Rupees/day. If you rent them for a longer period, you might can bargain a discount. Thank you Arthur and team for our pleasant stay, we would definitely choose your location again.
