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 regions, 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.).

AustraliaNothing.
No complaints about this villa. The kitchen was the best equipped we've had on our trip so far. The bathroom was newly renovated and comfortable. The owners attention to detail was fantastic - there was a Christmas tree up, they gave us a welcome bottle of champagne and Gloggi for our kids, plenty of sledding for our kids at the villa. Absolutely no complaints at all. Location is on the outskirts of Rovaniemi so you feel like you are in a relatively secluded area (there are other villas around) but relatively close to Rovaniemi for access to shops. Not far from Santa Park and Santa Claus Village.

IrelandVilla Peippo was just perfect! it comfortably sleeps 6 and there are two futons at the top of the stairs in the landing. it has everything you would need for an amazing trip to Lapland. The Aurora lights appeared over the Villa on our first night which was a huge bonus. We loved the shower and the sauna. I have to mention the drying cabinets in the hallway for all your ski gear… it was just fab. Just remove all outer clothing when you arrive in the door, hang everything in the cabinet and switch it on.. everything is nice and dry in no time! Would definitely stay here again if I return to Rovaniemi!

IrelandWe loved the comfort and layout of the home. It had everything you would need. We especially liked the clothes drier which ensured everything was dry for the next trip outside. We also liked the keyless entry as it meant we didn't have to keep track of a key and the children could let themselves in after playing outside. Sleds were left on the porch which were a big hit with the kids. The owner helped us hire a car through Hertz and also met us at the airport so we could follow him to the property. SCV and Rovaniemi were less than 10 mins from the property. The Bearhill Husky pick up was at Ounasvaara which was less than a 5 min walk. We would highly recommend the property.

United KingdomThere is nothing we didn't like.
The villa was amazing, great location, cosy, had everything and more we needed. Dryer cupboard was great to use after being out all day. The host is so helpful, he met us at our accommodation and kept in touch about activities that he could reserve for us. The villa has everything a family needs, spacious, warm, even a sauna. The location is perfect, we had a hire car and it was only 10-15min drive to Santa Claus Village. Supermarket down the road. It felt secluded in the woods but close enough to places we needed to go. Would highly recommend this villa. Great value for money.

AustraliaThis was the perfect place to celebrate New Year in Finland with family and friends! I could not fault the location, as it is picturesque and unique, in a forest setting. We loved Villa Peippo, and appreciated the attention to detail with Pentik glassware, bedding and beautiful photos on the walls. Our host Veli-Matti was very helpful and recommended activities. We went skiing at Ounasvaara ski resort and took part in an Aurora hunt with Wild Blueberry tours, with a successful sighting of Aurora borealis which was indeed a gift! We would highly recommend staying in Villa Peippo for a family get away.

AustraliaEverything was perfect
Villa Peippo provided the perfect backdrop for our first Christmas in Finland, reminiscent of my childhood Christmases. The cottage was decorated for Christmas, and everything was perfect! We also spent a memorable New Year in Villa Peippo and were very happy with our choice to stay there. The area was picturesque with snow-laden trees, peaceful and quiet, away from the touristy areas, which was the main purpose of staying at Ounasvaara. The Ounasvaara walking trails and viewing tower were close by, and we took full advantage of this. Also went on a pleasant walk to the Arktikum museum, though took the taxi back up the hill. Having access to a hire car is advised, though we managed well enough without a car for a few days. The self-catering option was great, and the kitchen equipment is of excellent quality, with Fiskars and Pentik items throughout. The washing machine and dryer, as well as the outdoor clothes and shoe dryer, were much appreciated. The sauna was nice but could have been hotter! Sledges were provided, thought we didn't try them out this time. Host Veli-Matti is very helpful and easy to contact, with quick replies to questions. We would highly recommend Villa Peippo for a family holiday, especially in winter!
