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 KingdomOnly real issue was that after heavy rain one day lots of flies appeared. Coming from the brook and surrounding farmland. Only lasted for a couple of days but was a bit of a nuisance.
Beautiful outlook over the brook from veranda. Peace and quiet. Safe area. 15 minutes pleasant walk down to village. Village is pleasant and safe. Lovely market. Lots of restaurants. Wine tram is a must.

South AfricaIn this day and age we all need to actively practice recycling, treading lightly on the planet and giving back to the environment. There was only one bin to collect all waste. I requested an additional bin to at least separate the plastic and recyclable waste. There should ideally also be bins for food waste to go into a bokashi, a bin for compostable vegetable and salad, eggshells waste. The oversized couch was great, but a bit too big for the room to move around easily. As this is a non-smoking cottage I was horrified to find an ash container in the cupboard stinking the cupboard out. I put it outside every day and everyday it was put back in the cupboard. As a non-smoking cottage this disgusting container should not even be there. There is even a sign thanking the visitors for not smoking. The kitchen and bathroom cupboards and units need a little TLC.
The stunning view across the river and onto the far away mountainside. Lovely! Easy access to the village via car. A walk will take to long. Close to top wine farms. The cottage has lots of space, large separate bedroom, walk-in cupboard and large bathroom with big shower. Lots of cupboard space to stash your goodies. The mini table in the open plan lounge area. The outside table and swimming pool although to cold and wet for us to use for the duration of our stay. Lots of secure parking. Having the cottage serviced every day was a nice touch. Fresh flowers on the table.

South AfricaLovely upmarket flat on the outskirts of the town, thoughtfully laid out and decorated and with everything one needed for a comfortable 2 night stay. We loved the constant sound of the bubbling brooke below and enjoyed the views over the farm fields, and of the mountains overlooking Franschhoek. It's just a few minutes drive into the delightful town and very near to world renowned wine farms and the main Wine Tram terminal. We unfortunately were not able to swim due to the wet and cool weather at the time, and we were out exploring most of the time too...Franschhoek is a gorgeous place with lots to explore.! We highly recommend the Exceptional Wine Tram experience for a spoil. And going up the Franschhoek Pass overlooking the town is breathtaking. Thanks to the host Michelle for a wonderful stay.

South AfricaGreat location. Quaint cottage overlooking a beautiful river and the Franschoek mountains. The deck area is great for relaxing, and the private pool is a great addition to the property. This really is excellent value for money, and has the bonus of being a very private unit. Will definitely stay again when in Franschoek!
