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 KingdomThe stairs to the bedrooms were very steep and narrow so may be a problem for people who are less able bodied
The property was clean and well presented, close to the town centre and easy to find. It contains most household appliance’s needed for a short stay away. The beds were comfortable and there was WiFi available within this property.

The location is great. Shops and restaurants just a minute walk away. The accomodation provides nice bedrooms. The livingroom could do with a bit more homely look and lighting. We were a bit overwhelmed by the load of instructions featuring all the things we had to do and weren't allowed to do that were given up front. They must have had some negative experiences with previous bookers, but it does kind of work on your "be welcome" feeling after a 14hour journey. Thetford offers great tourist sights, restaurants, pubs and walking routes. Tipping off some of these would be a plus and would make you feel welcome even more.

United KingdomThere wasn't anything that we disliked. It was an amazing stay.
The house was extremely clean and very well equipped. The location is perfect. Literally, a few minutes walk to the town centre, and all the shops, pubs, restaurants etc. Will definitely be booking again. A very chilled and relaxing weekend break.

United KingdomI think the stairs may be bit challenging for young children or elderly/infirm. Some people may not like downstairs bathroom.
Good location in the centre of town with free parking. Kitchen was well equipped and clean and tidy. Beds were very comfy and despite it's location was very quiet. Good little bathroom with nice shower. Probably more suited to couples or single people to use as base to explore local area.

United KingdomSmall, steep stairs not for the faint hearted.
The property was ideally located for us and is literally on top of the main high street on the other side. Perfect for a drink or access to shops. Parking is literally just on the corner of the property, plenty of room and free to park. Sleeping was very comfortable and the heating was perfect. Kitchen well stocked with utensils, tea and coffee, salt and pepper and even had some clingfilm which was perfect for preparing lunch for the next day. It’s a small properly but has near enough everything you need. Clear instructions on how to access the property, great communication.

Cosy, clean and comfortable house in a superb location for Thetford. It is very well equipped. It's on a quiet street yet just a couple of minutes walk to the centre. There are a couple of free car parks also just two minutes walk away.

GermanyThey only negative point was the steep and narrow staircase which led down from the bedrooms to the ground level. This is generally not a problem but elderly people should be aware of it.
We had a lovely stay at this spacious accommodation at the centre of Thetford. Communication with the host was very good and the guest house had all the facilities that we needed. Definitely worth a stay.

NetherlandsThere is only one toilet, and it's on the ground level. The bedrooms are up a very steep staircase and this can be inconvenient in the middle of the night. There was no soap or shampoo provided. The shower is just barely large enough for an adult to use. No milk for tea. The house is near the city center, so large delivery trucks drive right next to it at all hours of day and night.
Very functional facility. This is a two bedroom home with backyard and picnic table, kitchen, washing machine and living room. Tea and sugar were provided for guests. Free WiFi was very good.

The beds were really comfortable and the rooms were a good size. The WiFi was good and the bonus was having Netflix. It was great value for money and the town is a short couple of mins walk. We would definitely book again.
