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 KingdomThere was nothing we could find fault with.
The flat was very well laid out, everything that we needed for our 4 day stay was there. The bedroom had plenty of storage space, hanging and drawers. The lounge furniture was comfortable, and the bathroom, although small, was adequate. The flat was within walking distance of all amenities - grocers, cafes, and gift shops and only a 20-minute walk or short drive to Bowness and the Lake.

United KingdomIt really is a lovely property so don’t really want to grumble. However, the first 24 hours were lovely and peaceful as the apartment upstairs was empty. When the guests upstairs arrived it was quite noisy until we left. This wasn’t due to them being loud or intentionally noisy but the floorboards creak a lot and we could hear conversations. This was a little frustrating when I was woken by them using the toilet in the middle of the night, although appreciate it wasn’t their fault. Apart from this it really is a lovely property, I would just request the upstairs apartment next time.
The property is in a great location. We parked up when we arrived and walked for the next few days to various nearby towns. There is great public transport too with buses and the train station a short walk away. The property itself was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. Despite staying in December and having heaters fitted rather than central heating, we were toasty! Graham messaged with the details we needed and we knew he was on hand should we need anything.

AustraliaOnly 1 tea towel in the kitchen (for 5 days). I found the lighting options in the main room were not bright enough. And, difficult to get a large suitcase up the stairs although Graham, the host, was very willing to do it for me which was really appreciated.

United KingdomAccepting the excellent value (half the price of most available places esp those nearer walking areas eg Ambleside ), there was nothing we disliked of the facilities. I am only 5ft 1. The 2 mirrors were set high so I couldn't see lower than my chin without standing on tip toes.
Convenient for Windermere town. Free parking. Very well kitted out: all basic standard and nothing exceptional, but all in working order and nothing missing making a 3 day self catering break very easy and was very very good value. Graham was an excellent communicator and popped by on our last morning. No rush to leave, so we packed and left car until the afternoon which was kind.

United KingdomThe weather could have been better but we are in the Lake District so unsettled weather is expected.
Perfect location as close enough to walk into Windermere but far enough away from traffic. Plenty of places to eat and drink round about. Just a 20 minute walk down to the lake at Bowness for more shops etc. Transport links are very good.

The apartment was in immaculate condition. The host created a folder with all information pertaining to our stay including how to operate certain equipment, nearest emergency services, food, bus etc. There were brochures with ideas of where to go. The host communicated well. And even on the day of leaving, allowed us to store our luggage while we continue to explore nearby. It was a lovely stay
