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 StatesHard to find down a long stretch of dirt roads. Never got my email telling me how to get there and what to do once I got there. Do not stop at the first structure on the right , it is a zombie house! The third and last house is the one you’re staying at, and it’s pretty much self service from there.
Beautiful grounds in the rainforest, clean quiet and comfortable, reasonably priced.

United KingdomIt would have been good to have some towels or an area to dry dishes, we had to use our bath towels. As other reviews have mentioned the walls are so thin, you can hear most other guests. Just a few more basic utensils in the room would have been great like some glasses and we only had a frying pan and no pots.
We arrived in the evening and were able to chose which room. The bed was huge and very comfortable for 2 people, and we had armchairs and table which was nice. It got a bit cold in the room but we had plenty of blankets. The freezer box works really well with the frozen water bottles from the communal freezer. The instructions to get there were detailed and helpful. Good WiFi. Overall we were comfortable, and we would recommend if you are looking for a budget place to stay on the island.

CanadaWalls are "made of cardboard" and unfortunately guests arrive and don't realize we can hear EVERYTHING. I think everyone would appreciate their stay a little more if a clear warning was made in advance about being careful with noise.
For the price, I mean this is exceptional. Very clean, comfortable and good size. If you like being out in the wild, you'll enjoy this.

AustraliaThe ad said deluxe! No, this is very basic. A room without curtains, without insulation, not to any building code. It was ok for us as we are used to living off grid but it was not as advertised.
This is basically camping with running water. Certainly not ‘deluxe’ as indicated in the room title. While it was acceptable for us it was not described as it should be. Rustic can be negative or positive by definition.

United StatesLocation makes it easy to access either side of the island. Closer to Hilo and the forests which we like, but also has a good head start and away from morning traffic to hop over to the Dryer side on hwy 11 for the day. Also they allowed our two small doge to stay with us as long as they were quiet and we cleaned up after them. Great place to stay for the price!

TurkeyThe only downside for me was the shower; the water either ran extremely hot or cold, making it difficult for me to adjust it to a comfortable warm temperature

Germanythere is basically no privacy as your neighbors are behind the next wall, seperated from you by half an inch of some "wall" place is fair, but nothing you wanna chill at an extra hour. the prices are low, but for similar prices you can find much nicer stays. I would not want to spend my holidays here.
the description to find the place was very helpful. Place provides you with a bed and a shower and toilet inside your room - really inside.
