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, Iceland, Australia, Greece, Brazil and North Carolina. For properties in these regions, 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 showers were really poor. Not hot and really poor water pressure. Even though a plumber came to fix them they went back to being lukewarm with poor water pressure the next day. The shower in the second ensuite overflowed and bizarrely this happened when we stayed last year also. The plumber did resolve this issue as a piece of plastic was jammed in the drain - could this have been there since last year ? The design of the showers is bizarre and very awkward also - with wet hands it's practically impossible to press the tiny button in and turn turn the on/off control. Looks good but very difficult (and annoying !) to use. The main bedroom was also very warm due to the boiler being in the room - maybe a fan could be supplied ?
Location, layout of property and parking was great.

United Kingdom1. House was very warm; the master bedroom was almost like a sauna at night. No window to open neither as it was just patio doors instead? Bit strange to be honest but not the end of the world. 2. Kitchen drawers all practically fell out when pulled out? Not a big deal, more of an observation.
1. Space - plenty of room for multiple couples which was great. Having multiple bathrooms is also a great addition. 2. Plenty of on-site parking when we stayed which was very handy. 3. Only a 10min walk into the centre of the town, so the location is great and was really quiet too. 4. Good kitchen and cooking facilities available if you need. 5. House had everything you really wanted for a group booking :)

United Kingdomthese are just things that are to do with the property itself and not the maintenance - main bedroom was warm as it houses the boiler - this was remedied by purchasing a small fan for £30 from the local Morrisons. Water pressure was poor in the en-suite bathroom but I have stayed in hotels where it’s worse! these are the only things I could think of!
excellent facilities, very clean. details such as dishwasher tablets, laundry tabs etc were available. the location was excellent for St Andrews with everything just a 5 min drive away. The location was peaceful and away from traffic.

United KingdomThere were some minor issues. It would have been helpful if there was some welcome information that gave some basic information, such as Wi-fi password and some information about how to operate the hive central heating. We did fond a folder with instructions for all appliances, however, a simple guide would have been helpful.
The property was perfect for our group, three couples, good social area and 3 bedrooms, two en-suite the other next to the main bathroom. We also liked that the property was only a short walk to the town centre.

United KingdomWe did have a problem with heating and hot water on our first night. However, when I phoned to report it, the agents sent someone out to us within the hour and he was able to fix the boiler. He also advised us that as a goodwill gesture we would not have to check out at 10am on our last morning. The late check out was gratefully accepted, allowing us to extend our holiday and stay for lunch before leaving for home.
The general standard of decoration, furniture and fittings was much higher than the vast majority of holiday let’s I have previously visited. The bedroom sizes were generous, with excellent en suite facilities and the kitchen / lounge area is also very well appointed. The property is located in a quiet, up market, residential area and only a short walk to the town centre, beach and other attractions.

United KingdomBoth showers are little more than a dribble. For such a nice apartment this was very surprising. The bedrooms are incredibly warm even with all heating off and it was only 16 degrees outside. In summer it would be unbearable.
Clean, new and everything well organised. Parking great. Location ideal. Nice and quiet.
