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 KingdomSticky table in the kitchen Could do with a deep cleaning Despite check out until 10am, there were people knocking at the door and wandering around property at 9am asking us to leave so they can clean the property for next visitors. We all felt pressurised by it and found this unfair and annoying.

United KingdomThink need to highlight more suitable for families. We struggled with the small bedroom and bunks. Maybe some coffee making facilities would help e.g. A plastic filter and jug
The location was very good . Would certainly book again with us making adjustments. The bus into machynleth was great

United KingdomThe shower was very nice but the hose really needs repairing/replacing as it doesn’t hold it’s position. I got the central heating working eventually but it wasn’t obvious how to do this in the initial instructions and it was needed to dry towels, etc. The cutlery in the kitchen needs replacing/improving and some sharp knives need adding (especially a bread knife). A welcome/instructions book would be useful. :)
Great location. Our girls really enjoyed staying at the house and loved the games room and the park next door. it was great to have a real fire and the the facilities were very good overall.

United Kingdomonly bad thing I can say is the sofa in the living room is not comfortable, it’s not big enough for a family to relax altogether and watch the TV
location was fab, little park next to cottage for kids to play in, I could even watch the kids while I cooked in the kitchen. lovely pub 2 minutes walk away. And beautiful beach only 10 minutes drive away. pool room at bottom of garden was great kids loved that 👍

United KingdomThere was no central heating just oil radiotors although we did get told how to switch them on and off if needed, the electronic heaters were ok so not a big issue.
Nice cosy cottage made us feel like at home quick responses from the owner when we had an issue, the fireplace was amazing and a lovely big kitchen made us want to cook instead of going out for food.

United KingdomLovely cottage in a small village. Facilities were excellent and our teenage daughter and friend made full use of the games room and board games that were left at the cottage. Cottage had everything we needed and was very comfortable for our 4 night stay. Beautiful area, and a park right next door which you can see from the garden if you have young children very handy. We didn't take our dog, but the hosts even provided for fur babies....dog bowls, towels, doggy bags and lead...never had any of these when we have stayed in a cottage, lovely touch. We had a brilliant time and would highly recommend Rhys Cottage.

United KingdomThe cottage was in perfect location, only a 10 minutes drive to nearest village for supermarkets etc and 30 minutes to the nearest beach. The park next to the property was great for our children, we felt they were safe going through the back garden to it and we could see them clearly. The children enjoyed the games room at the top of the garden.
