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.).

SwitzerlandThe bright white LED ceiling lights in the living room/kitchen are a mood killer. We didn't use it and moved the standing lamp from the living room in there.
We were looking for a few days of Scotland feeling in solitude and got what we were looking for here. The cottage is secluded and with a beautiful view on a bay in the north-east of the Isle of Skye. It is surrounded by pastures with sheep. Kilt Rock is almost on the doorstep and the location is perfect for visits to Old Man of Stor, Quiraing, Fairy Glen. The cottage itself seems a bit old despite the renovation, but it has everything you need for a few days in a household. At first glance the price/performance ratio seems unfavorable, but then there are: location, location and location.

United KingdomThere was nothing I didn’t like about this property and we look forward to returning again next year.
Lovely location overlooking the beach with great views. A lot of detail went into the decor of the cottage which was furnished with good quality furniture, beautiful towels and well stocked crockery and utensils for cooking. The cottage was bright inside freshly painted, patio doors leading out to the garden and velux roof windows that captured the light throughout the cottage. It is a haven of peace and tranquility.

CanadaWe loved everything about Driftwood Cottage. The location and the views were outstanding, the cottage itself had everything you could ever want and need. It was lovely to have some down time after traveling from one B & B to another. We would definitely stay there again.

SpainThe cottage is wonderful, clean and the location is excellent. The booklet with information available at the house was very useful. The kitchen was fantastic and the house was warm, beds very comfortable. We couldn’t really enjoy the garden since it was raining quite a lot and the days are short, but it was beautiful and very well maintained. We saw an amazing sunrise from the kitchen.

United KingdomDriftwood cottage is perfect. A wonderful quiet location with amazing views. Very clean and well equipped. We immediately felt at home. When we sent the owner a text to ask a question we had a very helpful and speedy response. Whilst the bathroom is downstairs, we did discover that there is an ensuite toilet in the twin bed room which saved us a trip downstairs in the night.

United KingdomBeing really really picky, did not like the bright fluorescent lighting in the kitchen, but we brought lamps into the kitchen area when we were having dinner in the evening. Would have preferred not to come downstairs to go to the toilet, but hey, we were in a lovely cottage in a remote location and knew that when we booked! I am only giving negatives in case helpful and because being asked for dislikes
Location was fantastic, cottage was bright, roomy, warm,
