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 Statesa minor issue: but missing standard network options such as live, wider range of news options and channels, but some nice extra film and series channels. The house and location are much more positive than that otherwise.

United StatesThe only downside was that the window in one of the rooms did not open which made it somewhat of a struggle to cool off that room. The home does not have air conditioning, but they did have a few fans that we used to help with the heat.
The house is a perfect place for a family. Everything was clean and comfortable. We were close enough to everything, but still far enough away to have peace and quiet on what is a pretty busy island. A grocery store is just a few minutes down the road as well.

United StatesThere was a funky smell of fish in the kitchen and also the bathroom had a lingering urine smell when we arrived. There are cleaning products on-site and we took care of it. Also, a bigger bed in one of the main bedrooms would be nice. They are roomy enough.
After a multi-hotel drive from Ohio to here, and the last place taking my parking space, it was pure joy to be away from the hustle and bustle that is Bar Harbor and Acadia. It was close to Bass Harbor and thirty minutes from the loop. Excellent WiFi, easy entry and a laundry room. Would stay here again.

United StatesThe appliances could be updated a bit since they were older (washer, dryer, and dishwasher) but they still worked and served their purpose. There is carpeting throughout the house (aside from the kitchen and bathroom) which was a little inconvenient coming in and going out so as to not track in dirt and debris.
The kitchen was fully equipped and had a dishwasher. We used two of the three bedrooms and they were large and roomy. The beds were firm, but incredibly comfortable. There were also lots of linens and towels easily available if we needed more. The house had large tv which made watching a movie together at night really convenient. There was also a washer and dryer which was very helpful since we got some unexpectedly hot weather. And the location was great-- quiet neighborhood, lots of space between neighbors, and less than a 30 minute drive to most places on Mount Desert Island!

United StatesMost disturbing was the musty smell in parts of the house, including the beds and bedding in 2 of the bedrooms, with one of the rooms having a window that did not open, to air out the room, and mold on the wall of one of the bdrms! Amenities were not as described and lacked simple comforts such as no deck, no outdoor chairs (for stargazing!) or blowdryer, no tvs in the bdrms, and no kleenex, which we needed for the sneezing and runny noses from the mustiness and mold, which affected us all. Also the living area rugs were very dirty and obviously unvacuumed.
The location was very nice, quiet, close to quaint Southwest Harbor village, and a 25 min dirive to Acadia park loop and Bar Harbor. The kitchen had everything, and moret that was needed
