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.).

Switzerlandsince this is an accommodation with a cooking opportunity it would be great to have some of the food essentials already there (such as oil).
very cozy pod, felt like our own little nest - the layout is really nice and the pod itself lovely decorated. The view is great (if you're lucky, you might spot some seals) and in just a couple of minutes you can reach achmelvich beach.

The location was absolutely great with stunning views no matter what the weather did. With a car it was close enough to all the fabulous beaches for fantastic sea swimming and also to Lochinver for shops and restaurants.

United KingdomWe had to have our luggage on the floor and just take the clothes out of it as there was no clothes storage but in a small pod, we did not expect this anyway. The rest made up for this slight inconvenience
It was in a stunning location with spectacular views across to the mountains. It was very well equipped and we just loved our time there. We wondered if the shower would be okay as it was just a small wet room but it worked perfectly!

United KingdomLoved the cabin with its stunning views. It is a wild area with a lovely beach a short distance away. However, it is also close to the restaurants of Lochinver.. Willie and Dorothy are excellent hosts .making sure we had everything we needed. The weather was exceptionally hot and sunny, but it would be lovely here in less good weather as well. Hope to return.

We loved everything about this beautiful cabin. it was very spacious we loved how there was good use of the space provided & it was spotlessly clean and has everything you need for your break. A great base for many lovely attractions on the NC500 within walking distance of Achmelvich Beach. To top it all, Willie and Dorothy were the best ever hosts, very caring and thoughtful. Don’t hesitate booking the Selkie Cabin.

This property totally blew us away! Selkie cabin was just PERFECT! We’ve stayed in a lot of places and no where tops this! It’s the perfect size - lots of space and even a kitchen with 2 hobs - as well as loadssss of thoughtfully put together outdoor space (we really loved breakfast on the top decking area). The hosts were brilliant - really friendly and kind and I couldn’t think of a better area to be in. We initially thought we wanted to be further towards Ullapool but actually, this was the ideal location, so much to do! Lochniver is on your doorstep as well as Alchmevich beach, Kylesku area, Inverkerigg falls, Stac P, Suilven etc. etc. we could have stayed for so much longer and can’t wait to go back. if you’re considering booking - do it, you won’t regret it and you’ll never have such a lovely morning view to wake up to :)

United StatesThis is one of the highlight of our stay along the north coast. The road getting here can be hair raising but oh boy was it worth it. the view alone with sunset over achmelvich beach is reason enough to choose this place. then add that to Dorothy’s hospitality- you couldn’t ask for more. we couldn’t thank her and her husband enough to have this place and to share it to travelers like us. for the property itself — extremely well done, well thought of, well executed. We were able to prepare our breakfast, drank coffee with the sunrise at the deck, and sleep our most comfortable bed for two nights. it was remote, no phone signal - but who needs it anyway for a place like this!!! I wish we could have stayed longer, but vacation must end. thank you so much to our wonderful host.
