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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. 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.).

PolandBathroom togehter with sauna, small bedroom and narrow bed. General problem for Lapland in summer- most of windows are unopenable, what makes warmth inside.
This place is exactly like from the catalog of Lapland- wooden log house (cottage) located 10m from the bank of the lake. Very well equiped (kitchen, bathroom). Sauna in the house. Reindeers at the property. Forest next to the house. Mosquitos werent't very problematic.

CanadaI can’t say there was anything that I didn’t like about this property, it was exactly what we had envisioned for a secluded getaway.
The privacy was the best, very quiet and picturesque. Sitting by the fire place was very cozy and comfortable with no distractions whatsoever. The kitchen was very functional with all the necessary flat ware and utensils one would need to cool a great meal. It was perfect for a romantic getaway.

FinlandWe had a bed and sofa cum bed for two adults and a child. Bed was smaller for two normal sized adults (Husband 182 cm and wife 167 cm). Felt little cramped. There is absolutely no cupboard in the cottage , so all the clothes ( outdoors and indoors) have to be hanged on the hooks. It is also a bit difficult if staying for a longer duration. Would highly appreciate it if one can be added to the cottage.
Peace and serenity. Wooden Sauna was extremely good. Location for sure, just besides the lake , perfect for viewing Northern lights ( when it comes)🤞 The kitchen is fully equipped with all sorts of kitchen appliances. Plus, kudos to the owners for keeping lots of basic items ( left by fellow travelers) already available for others to use. Towels, toiletries, bedsheets, pillow all in abundance. Owners were a message away. Feeding the Reindeers was an extremely unique experience for us. We took pick up and drop off service from the owners, very handy. As the van takes us to shopping before we reach the cottage. Highly recommended and we will surely visit again.

FinlandNothing really. If being very picky I might say that one newer frying pan would be great but it was manageable without as well.
We loved absolutely everything. Somebody elase here said “home away from home”. One only needs clothes and laptop and can easily live there for a year without actually needing anything.

We loved the cosy cabin and very comfortable bed. Everything was immaculately clean! Plenty of wood for the fireplace and sauna. We booked the hottub for both nights. It was so nice, but very expensive. However, it was a treat to ourselves for our wedding anniversary. We will definitely return to stay here again.

Russia- Be aware that a bathroom is colocated with a sauna. You have to go outside across the porch (2 foot steps) to reach it from the main room. It did not affect our stay at all, just be prepared.
- Extraordinary location, easy to reach by car (~1 hour drive from Rovaniemi). Main roads are well-maintained, the final road is cleaned by the family with their amazing tractor. - Gorgeous nature with a forest around the house on one side and a lake shore on the other. We skied across the lake and reached wild woods on the other side. - Extremely private and quiet location. Perfect for stargazing and aurora hunting. Yet the hosts are nearby if needed. - Great facilities: ski rental, snowmobile rental, their own reindeer farm. Talk to the hosts about a reservation. - Kitchen stocked with everything. Oil, salt, coffee, utensils, pots and pans are all abundantly present. - True Finnish sauna in a separate cubicle attached to the house. Wood fireplace in the house. Wood is provided for the whole stay.

FinlandVery little not to like. About an hour's drive from Rovaniemi on fairly perilous roads in winter, but that's the price for being away from the hustle and bustle!
Incredible cottage with great amenities. Comfy, private, quiet, accessible (be it far). Situated at a lake, which allowed us to see the northern lights clearly and with minimal light pollution on two nights of our stay! Staff were very kind and accommodating. Will definitely come back next winter!

United Kingdomnothing it was amazing
Lovely place to stay - To start the scenery and location is incredible, lovely secluded place which is homey and cosy yet spacious at the same time. The owners were lovely, with great communication and local knowledge. They had set the beds up as two doubles for both couples and they were really comfortable. The owners provided lots of information and were on hand to answer any questions or queries. The place was extremely warm throughout our stay and very comfortable - would 100/10 recommend. Feeding and seeing the reindeers on our last day was another amazing highlight that they offered! We all left not wanting to leave :) Additionally, the property had everything you'd need to cook etc (lots of utensils) which made cooking a breeze!

United KingdomAbsolutely everything. The location is breathtaking by the lake, in the middle of a beautiful forest, you only see something like this in movies. I couldn’t believe how beautiful everything was and the chalet is absolutely gorgeous, has everything you might need and extremely clean. This is a perfect location if you are a family with children and just want to relax. My son loved playing outside and I could see him while in the house. The host is phenomenal as well, I called for some directions very late at night and she was so nice and accommodating. We are looking to return next year for a longer period of time.
