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.).

GuernseyThe cottage has storage heaters which we've personally never got on with, but it still felt warm on arrival, despite arriving very late. There is an option to put the log burner on if it gets cold, or use the blankets which are available. Thankfully the heaters were all set up and we had no need for the fire or the blankets. So not a dislike, more that it's not something we're used to.
The cottage's very clean, beautifully decorated interior, blending rustic and modern elements, made it feel very comfortable and welcoming. The highlight, however, was the stunning view from the windows that greeted us in the morning. This location strikes a perfect balance between serenity and convenience, but what truly made our stay exceptional was the owner's exceptional hospitality. We've never scored a 10 out of 10, but Helen went above and beyond to ensure our comfort, and provided valuable support during uncertain times, along with local recommendations. Her warmth and accommodating nature made this experience unforgettable This cottage is a hidden gem that offers comfort, beauty, and relaxation. We can't wait to return and make more cherished memories in this tranquil retreat. Highly recommended to anyone seeking a memorable getaway!

United KingdomLocation was great. Close to Brecon and easy to travel around the Brecon Beacons. The house had everything you'd need for a stay away. Kitchen facilities were great and lots of space to chill out; inside the house & outside in the garden. Would highly recommend and will definitely go back.

GermanyThere is absolutely nothing we did not like.
The welcoming, homely feel, the views and the location of the Cottage are excellent. As soon as you walk in, you feel as if you have entered your own house - its better actually as it is tidy! All facilities were spotlessly clean and quite new. Everything worked excellently and there was a huge pack of instructions. The local OS maps were most appreciated. Whilst we had not met the host, we were able to txt and always got very friendly and helpful responses. The downstairs toilet was very useful indeed. Everything was furnished very tastefully and the kitchen was comfortable. We arrived in a torrential downpour, but as soon as you closed the door behind you, you were cosy, warm and "at home". The basket with the welcome gifts and the blackboard message was a very nice personal touch. The beds are very comfy. Parking is fine, there is room for 2 cars after a steep ascent to the drive. Finally, the views are spectacular and if the weather clears, Brecon Beacon is visible in touching distance.

United KingdomBack yard was as advertised is contained though smaller and great to have a safe option for our young dog. We had thought dog walking would be easier in the area but country roads are tighter - nothing at all to do with the house. Dogs requested to stay downstairs in request so be aware of that - again not a major issue for us but to note.
Very cute cottage with enough stuff in kitchen to be self sufficient. Quaint property in a quiet countryside location. Limited phone reception but internet was fast and made it possible to work remotely as needed. While cottagey it has been refurbished so it isn’t all drafts and creaking - we really enjoyed our stay.

I liked everything. The communication with the host, the location , the welcome pack and the beautiful 'feel' of the cottage, especially the silence...........There were little home comforts that made it feel very special. It was absolutely perfect for our walking weekend in Brecon.

Helen was a perfect host and did everything possible to ensure our stay was special. It was a superb base to explore the beautiful area and a perfect way to see in the new year.
